Edmunds' Expert Review
Overall rating
Few cars on the planet can compete with the Lamborghini Aventador. Powered by a screaming non-turbo V12 and clad in bombastic body panels, the Aventador is firmly positioned in the supercar stratosphere, and it draws eyes wherever it goes. But after several years in the same form, Lamborghini decided that the Aventador could use a fresh dose of power and an updated look.
Refreshed for 2019, the flagship Aventador gets more power. The base model now packs 740 horsepower, and the new Lamborghini Aventador SVJ guns up to 759 hp. There's also four-wheel steering and all-wheel drive and a series of updates to suspension and aerodynamics. These updates take one of the fastest vehicles on the planet and make it even faster, elevating its flair and desirability. Only the fastest and most exclusive Ferraris, McLarens and Porsches can run in the same circle. For buyers who have the means, the Lamborghini Aventador is certainly worth a look.
Lamborghini Aventador models
The 2019 Lamborghini Aventador is a mid-engine supercar, built on carbon-fiber monocoque available as a coupe or as a roadster with a removable top. There are two trim levels: the base S and the special edition SVJ (Superveloce Jota). The Aventador's non-turbo 6.5-liter V12 engine sends 740 horsepower and 509 lb-ft of torque to all four wheels via a seven-speed single-clutch automatic transmission. The Aventador SVJ bumps that power up to 759 hp and 531 lb-ft of torque. The trademark swing-up doors reveal a fighter plane cockpit-inspired interior.
Whether you go with the hardtop or the roadster, the Aventador S has nearly limitless customization options. Buyers can choose from colors such as Metallic Blu Nila and Pearl Verde Mantis and specify brake caliper colors, select various forged wheels, opt for different engine covers, and choose bespoke seats and seat belts. Along with the horsepower increase, the more track-focused SVJ (known previously as the Aventador SV) uses lightweight parts to lower the car's overall weight and increase performance. The SVJ uses a revised front fascia with improved aerodynamics and sports a larger rear wing. Its interior features more exposed carbon fiber.

Lamborghini Aventador vs. the competition
Lamborghini Aventador vs. Aston Martin DB11
If a V12 is what you're after but you don't want the aggressive angles and sharp body lines of the Aventador, the Aston Martin DB11 may be a smart choice. While it isn't exactly a track-munching hypercar like the Lambo, the DB11 is a powerful, super-athletic British sports car with a refined personality. And it even offers a back seat. It's also worth noting that the Aston is about half the price of the Aventador.
Lamborghini Aventador vs. Ferrari Portofino
A hardtop convertible with a sonorous V8 under the hood, the Ferrari Portofino offers a bit more restrained driving experience compared to the Aventador (especially up against the SVJ). It also has a classy look and excellent driving dynamics all its own. Much like the Aventador, the Ferrari offers a number of customization options for the interior, but the Ferrari has something the Lambo doesn't: a back seat.
Lamborghini Aventador vs. McLaren 720S Spider
While it doesn't possess the power or the prowess of the hybrid P1, the McLaren 720S Spider is still one of the Aventador's strongest competitors. Powered by a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 paired with a quick-shifting dual-clutch transmission, the McLaren puts down 710 horsepower, about as close to the Aventador's 740 horses as you can get. The 720S is also a bit easier to live with, if you decide to use it on a daily basis that is, thanks to a comfortable ride quality and well-sorted interior.

Should I lease or buy a 2019 Lamborghini Aventador?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
