What is the difference between SVJ and the Big Bull?
2 Answers
There is no difference between the SVJ and the regular Big Bull; they are the same model. The Lamborghini SVJ is the Big Bull. Generally, Lamborghini's flagship sports cars are referred to as the Big Bull. The Lamborghini Big Bull specifically refers to Lamborghini's flagship sports cars, such as the current flagship Aventador, the previous generation's flagship Murcielago, and the generation before that, the Diablo. Lamborghini's entry-level sports cars are called the Little Bull, such as the current Huracan and the previous generation Gallardo models. The Lamborghini Big Bull is a two-door, two-seater sports car equipped with a 6.5-liter V12 engine delivering a maximum power of 566KW, maximum torque of 720N·m, and 770 horsepower. The body structure offers two options: a hardtop coupe and a hardtop convertible. The vehicle has a length of 4797mm, a width of 2030mm, a height of 1136mm, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. The fuel tank capacity is 85 liters, and the trunk capacity is 140 liters. It uses an electro-hydraulic power steering system for clearer road feedback. The Aventador SVJ accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.8 seconds.
I've driven both the Lamborghini SVJ and the regular Aventador versions, and the differences are quite significant. The SVJ is the top-performance variant of the Aventador, with more horsepower—up to 770 hp—while the regular Aventador (or Murcielago) usually has around 700 hp. During my test drive, the SVJ felt more stable in acceleration and cornering, thanks to its optimized aerodynamic design and lightweight components. It drives aggressively like a track car, but the comfort is compromised—the chassis is stiffer, and long drives can make your back ache. The regular Aventador is more daily-driver-friendly, with softer suspension, making it less tiring for city driving. Visually, the SVJ is more imposing, featuring an exaggerated rear wing and splitters, which look flashier but come at a much higher price—new cars can differ by hundreds of thousands to a million yuan. Maintenance costs are also higher, such as more frequent tire changes. I think the SVJ suits enthusiasts chasing extreme performance, while the regular Aventador is better for those who drive occasionally and prefer less hassle. Both, however, embody the classic charm of a V12 engine.
