History
Mansory was the first aftermarket house to present a complete body programme for the Lamborghini Aventador, unveiling it at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show just twelve months after the car's world debut. The full carbon-fibre body dramatically widened the Aventador's stance and added aerodynamic elements front and rear.
In 2013 Mansory raised the stakes with the Carbonado LP1250 — a twin-turbocharged 1,250 hp coupe limited to six units — and followed with the open-top Carbonado Apertos Roadster (three units) at the IAA Frankfurt show the same year. The 2014 Carbonado GT pushed output to 1,600 hp and a claimed 370 km/h top speed.
The programme has continued through the Aventador's production life with the Carbonado EVO (2019, 1,250 hp roadster) and the naturally aspirated Carbonado GTS (820 hp), making it one of the most recognisable and long-running Mansory conversion lines.
