Lamborghini Aventador SVJ Roadster vs. Huracan Evo Spyder | PistonHeads

The current crop of Lamborghini roadsters is a rare vintage. The Evo is arguably the finest Huracan yet and the SVJ is the Aventador we've all been waiting nearly a decade for. But which is the one to have? We dispatched Dan P to the middle of nowhere to find out...

He is my favorite presenter, good to see him back.

[@DoctaM3]

Incredible cars they are. The Evo is a worthy successor to the Huracan LP 610-4 but the Performante really is the better performer of the 2 cars. Still, I’d go SVJ, even with it more dated gearbox (though well tuned now). You have to take the Aventador for what it is. The product of a mad scientist who know what a supercar should feel like-thisIS a pure RAGING BULL. Thank you Lambirghini 🙏

Reffing to the gearbox, I've never understood why everyone complained about it, people always go on about how Lamborghinis of old were better because of how rough and abrasive they were.

[@eventusvantos2770]

@John Mitchell let me fix that for you Ferrari

[@zaheedevans3]

Great review Dan, you have a great command of the English language to articulate beautifully the feelings and emotions of driving two amazing looking and sounding cars. Love listening to your reviews!

[@ZaidKhan-vi7du]

Would rather snap my neck and die in an Aventador than complain about its SCT

SVJ -'sounds like an orchestra on acid'. Quote Mr P. Enough said!

[@gregmayled]

Good to see Dan back on KZbin!

[@chrise2329]

V10 or V12, tough decision!

[@matteomontu3855]

For me v10 is the right choice between a v8 and v12...

[@redlinemagazine]

A screaming V10 does things for the soul ...

[@DocBonzII]

Amazing video and excellent review. Well done.

[@dennishyun7173]

Lovely review as always ~!!!!! Should get both~~!!!!!!!

[@iananderson2469]

These lambo's make a beautiful sound like no other car and the looks are so eye popping, just mobile art on wheels.

[@sagaraher5611]

I've seen both these. Any Aventador for that matter, it's wider and lower making it look sick. And the sound, well it depends. The huracan is throaty and the Aventador screems.

[@kitaubila300]

you've outdone yourself,keep up the good work!

[@zakelwe]

Thanks Dan and PH

[@1991julez]

A welcome return to Dan! In two of the greatest cars on sale today. Wonderful video

How could I not subscribe. SWEET video.

[@teamvigod]

I'd take the Evo over the SVJ. Evo is crisper and more tamped down than the SVJ.

[@MrJdp1968]

Lamborghini certainly know how to do drama, I actually prefer the Huracan Evo over the SVJ though, both great cars !

[@deezelkane]

More bang for your buck, that's for sure

[@huntawayfamily8040]

Which roads is this filmed on? The evo triangle? I'm not far for north Wales so it's worth the trip for me.

[@thomasmiller2395]

A jet black Huracan Evo coupe sittin on those dark goldish lookin wheels is about as good as a car can look imo. Love the Evo

[@danielfernandez5741]

Where was this filmed I just picked up the evo spyder and want to try it !

[@TheDavcrz5]

That what supercars are meant to be sense of occasion, of excitement with maybe a little danger so to speak lol there meant to put huge smile on your face. And that's whar Aventador SVJ accomplishes yes brakes could be better the gearbox is a little slow but that's all part of drama and thrill of Aventador SVJ

[@gregorysn2079]

crazy machines

[@sideshowbob32]

Is the header rail really low in the Huracan or is the seat really high?

[@willa5612]

Which road is this?

[@94mikyyy]

So can you explain me how evo is better handling on public roads? I never understood you journalists when you start saying stuff how much a car is engaging when you drive it on 50% of what it can do. I never drove a supercar but when I drive a Passat or Mazda 6 through a bend at 90kmh and they are capable of going 130kmh I can't tell which car is more engaging, understeery or whatever. So how can you say that Huracan was understeering, did you get it to understeer on every corner on the street or it just happened once on track?

[@BOOSTEDDUDE]

Nice review. Sub'd

This isn’t a proper review if you don’t tell us overall which is better! I mean, I would never complain with either, but I know i’d have the SVJ

[@SuperSportMTL]

Screaming V12 Check, fighter jet design Check, Italian Passion Check, Flamethrower exhaust Check. Thank you Lamborghini!

[@ssahoo5500]

Prefer huracan over svj just because of that single clutch gear box in aventador makes it slower in 1/4mile even in a stock lp610. Evo is worth

[@kgssupercars7398]

ALL OF LAMBORGHINI S' ARE REALLY REALLY SUPERB BRO!!!!....

[@Stu047]

Nice video. - I love Lambos so much! :D :D :D ...and I've been cheerleading the Aventador for the entire length of its story and at each chapter of its evolution; I'll be sorry to see it retired.

[@STEFAN27777]

you want a evo UGR hell yeah :D

[@swanblake]

Wish Lamborghini made rwd cars. Would fix so many of the problems. McLaren gets it. Damn that NA V12 and V10 sound like art. Lamborghini gets it

I've not wanted a car this much since the 599GTO.

[@timogaleon1630]

That gave me goose pimples.....

[@michaelsummerell8618]

It seemed strange to me that Lambo uprated the clutch for the Huracan but not for the Aventador, which is meant to be the flagship car. It seems a pity when you think of how much better the Aventador could have become with a double clutch setup...

[@SIFWD1]

So, to all major car manufacturers, what is your game plan to give us future cars that can generate this kind of human emotional response? Isn't this the essence of this car? You've got to be able to come up with some kind of solution, come on guys......

[@keithjackson4985]

If Jethro Bovingdon could get the first version of the Huracan sideways? Does that mean that everyone who says they understeered like crazy and were not a good buy, doesn't know what their talking about?

[@chdcile]

North Wales and Pen Y Pass in the wet, phew

[@justplainnic]

Such a contrast to what Autocar had to say about the Huracan Evo in their "cars that disappointed us most in 2019" ... "Yet what we got was half-baked. The engine is a masterpiece but the chassis feels like the front and rear axles have been developed by different teams who never spoke to each other. " Seems Dan is either really wrong, or he's more on the money than James from Autocar. ....

[@gazzabrownhigh8891]

Rather have a Performante spyder especially in verde mantis, bronze narvi alloys and the essential full carbon racing bucket seats and only 550 of them worldwide !

[@ballinonabudget1130]

You would be one of few for that spec. Any green Lambo sits forever and damn those seats are uncomfortable

[@gazzabrownhigh8891]

@@ballinonabudget1130 I think you will find Verde Mantis is the go to colour for a Lambo and most popular in the UK. Full on carbon seats are really comfortable and hold you in place IF you sit in them correctly ie fully back and upright. If you are taller than a midget at 5'7" the so called "comfort" seats that are UNcomfortable make you sit way to high so that your head is above the windscreen. Rather have a firm seat than look like noddy with my head sticking out of the car

[@keionchase2144]

It's 2020....Why isn't there a dual clutch FOR the aventador????

[@derekintrovert5619]

Because there No room & double Clutch weights More!!!!it is more Fun single. Clutch !!! Aventador will be replaced in 2022

[@gumpy4960]

The huracan just doesn’t excite me like it should, mostly I think because it isn’t bespoke enough just being an Audi R8 underneath.

[@ballinonabudget1130]

Mine excites me. You must love your Supercar unless you are one of the people that make negative comments about things they will never have.

[@gumpy4960]

Ballin Onabudget first of all I didn’t say it wasn’t exciting, I said it doesn’t excite me like it should. Second I probably love my cars more than you and because I’ve criticised this one car doesn’t mean that I always negative about cars, you can’t possibly love every car out there. Finally, I don’t own one you are right, but I have seen many, been a passenger in a few and actually driven one for short time and while it was still good, it didn’t thrill me as such as I thought it would.

[@uzairmiz4007]

evo spyder or 720s spyder?

@@ssahoo5500 I have both a performante and I had an SV roadster in the past. I now own performante I now own 720's spider and performante spider. Well the 720's is a straight line missile, I must admit the Lamborghini is way more fun to drive

@@robertlulek1634 lamborghini Is way more fun 😂 yes the performante is made for track use too, It's aero but remember 720 is a road car look at it's LT aka 765lt will murder orther cars. There is no lambo which can take 720s in performance, Aerodynamic for a road going car is excellent in 720s And ur word huracan is more fun than 720s can't digest 😂🤣 Where is 640ps NA and where is 720hp twin turbo which will murder Ina straight line, even if u r a good driver u can beat that 640ps track proposed huracan in a track with 720s, And convertible cars doesn't means for track by any means, either take coupe or don't say huracan ismore fun to drive
