This is the last Lamborghini Aventador ever to come off the assembly line. It will be sent to Switzerland and delivered to the last owner. The official description is "end of the era." Apart from saying goodbye to the current Aventador, it may also represent the final swan song of the V12 naturally aspirated engine.

The V12 engine has been the traditional configuration of Lamborghini. Starting with the Miura, continuing with the Diablo and Countach, and culminating with the Murcielago and Aventador, every model boasts its V12 engine as its signature feature. The Aventador debuted at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show to much fanfare from high-end buyers. Since then, 8 derivative models have been launched one after another, and over 11,465 vehicles have been sold worldwide. This volume far exceeds that of other existing Lamborghini models and is now the best-selling V12 model in brand history.

Looking back at the Aventador model's great century, we can see that the 2015 LP750-4 SV was a milestone for Lamborghini. Not only did it increase its horsepower from 700 to 750, but it also changed its sub-vehicle name from "Super Veloce" to "SV", which means "Super Veloce". This Italian phrase refers to speed and focuses on aerodynamics and lightweight engineering, as well as competitive orientation. Later, it ran 6:59.75 on the Nürburgring Nordschleife—breaking the fastest mass-produced car in one fell swoop record!

When the Aventador "Final Edition" LP780-4 Ultimate debuts in 2021, it will have a 6.5-liter V12 naturally aspirated engine that makes the most horsepower of any car in Lamborghini's series—780 horsepower/73.4kgm—and can accelerate from zero to 100 miles per hour in 2.8 seconds. The Coupe models are limited to 350 each, while there are 250 Roadsters total.
