After a teaser campaign, Lamborghini's new Aventador Superveloce Jota was revealed on social media ahead of its official unveiling at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.

The Instagram post, made by British luxury car dealer H.R.Owen, shows the front-end design of the flagship Lambo. Additional bonnet vents can be seen, as can a distinctive new rear wing shape.

No details accompany the image, but recently revealed onboard video footage showed the SVJ becoming the fastest production car to lap the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit.

The successful record attempt, set by Lamborghini factory driver Marco Mapelli, shows the SVJ completing the lap in a time of 6min 44:97sec - making the range-topping Lambo 2.27sec faster around the fearsome track than Porsche’s 690bhp 911 GT2 RS. It’s also just under 15sec faster than the Aventador SV.

A report leaked ahead of official confirmation of the lap time claimed the SVJ produces 759bhp from its 6.5-litre V12 - 69bhp more than the GT2 RS and 20bhp more than the current Lamborghini flagship, the Aventador SV.

The Italian supercar maker officially revealed the Aventador SVJ at the Monterey Car Week, after an ever-increasing number of teaser videos being posted online. The videos have boasted about the car having “the best aerodynamic efficiency” and claims of class-leading power-to-weight ratios have also been made.

At the front, there’s a significantly larger front splitter than that fitted to the McLaren Senna, and a new rear wing is held in place by two curved arms and a centre arm.

The car also sports a new dual-pipe exhaust system that blows engine waste gases out through the middle of the back end, rather than in the centre of the diffuser like the SV. This new technique, also used by the Huracán Performante, enhances the diffuser’s effectiveness by removing exhaust gases from an aerodynamically sensitive area.
