Default Novitec Torado Lamborghini Aventador

Novitec Torado takes a stab at improving the Lamborghini Aventador

Novitec has finished its tuning program for the Lamborghini Aventador, and it has called the mean-looking finished product, Torado. It looks like it wants to take the pedestrian sinisterness of the Aventador into an otherworldly rage, with carbon fiber vents, spoilers and protrusions lining the body from front to back.

Novitec says it's still good for daily use, even with four different stages of power tune and a fifth out-of-the-ballpark injection called "Bi-Kompressor." The power bumps start at 722 horsepower and 519 pound-feet and go up to 969 hp and 672 lb-ft with the bi-kompressor. The exhaust systems included in those packages are also good for shaving around 20 kilos from the car's weight.

I love IT!

Now THAT'S how you do a very aggressive Lambo, without going into clown car territory like the Sesto Elemento or the Veneno.

Lamborghini should be taking serious notes from Novitec here.

I agree, the kit IMO is way too gaudy.
