Lamborghini Aventador Reaches 370 km/h / 230 mph on Hockenheim

The Lamborghini Aventador has generated a lot of hype ever before it set wheel on the road and how could it have not done this, since we’re talking about an all-new V12 unit that delivers 700 hp?
The rest of the official numbers for the supercar as just as impressive: the four-wheel drive allows those horses to take the vehicle past the 62 mph mark in 2.9 seconds and if the driver keeps squashing the pedal on the right, the speedo can reach 217 mph (350 km/h).

This is what the Raging Bull claims, but it seems that the 6.5-liter monsted can do even more for the 3,472 lbs (1,575 kg) of the car in terms of top speed.

The adjacent video demonstrates that the Aventador can hit a significantly higher top speed, with the vehicle managing to reach 230 mph (370 km/h). The clip was shot by German magazine Sport Auto, while testing the Aventador on the Hockenheim.
