The 5 - door body style excels
in balancing lift forces
in the front and desirable downward forces
in the rear, achieving optimal
aerodynamic characteristics.
The new front and rear design on the Aventador LP720 - 4 50 ° Anniversary isn't looks only,
in fact the entire front splitter has been enlarged and extended to offer better handling at high speeds, the small upright fins on the sides do increase stability at speed too while drag
characteristics haven't been impacted... actually this new design results
in a 50 % increase of the
aerodynamic efficiency over the standard Aventador LP700 - 4.
This one - off, high - performance variant of the BMW 8 Series was completed
in 1991 and featured an all - new 12 - cylinder engine developing around 550 hp, chassis technology tuned precisely to the power unit and specific body features with optimised airflow
characteristics and
aerodynamics.
Characteristic aerodynamic features
in the front and rear are a prominent part of the Audi Q8 sport concept design.
