The Mansory Carbonado GTS is the wide-body carbon conversion built around the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ donor — specifically around its ALA 2.0 active-aero hardware. The SVJ ran 2018 to 2022 as the track-tilted apex of the Aventador hierarchy: 770 PS / 720 Nm from the L539 6.5 V12 at 8 500 rpm, a 900-unit production cap, and the 6:44.97 Nürburgring production-car lap record set in July 2018. The donor's signature is the second-generation Aerodinamica Lamborghini Attiva system — vector-thrust flaps in the front splitter and rear wing that respond at 500 ms to driver input. Carbonado GTS is dimensioned around that hardware: the front clip retains every ALA 2.0 duct, the rear wing sits as a fixed swan-neck element above the active wing plane rather than replacing it, and the splitter geometry is calibrated so that ALA's vector-thrust map continues to read clean inlet pressure.
Sister Lamborghini programmes in Hodoor's Mansory roster: Aventador (catalogue), Aventador S, Aventador SV J.S.1 Edition, Aventador Competition, SVJ Cabrera, Carbonado Apertos, Revuelto.
ALA 2.0 (Aerodinamica Lamborghini Attiva, second generation) is a flap-actuated active-aero system unique to the SVJ within the Aventador family. The front splitter carries two electrically actuated flaps that vector intake air to either downforce or stall mode; the rear wing carries a third flap that runs aero vectoring — one side of the wing stalls in a corner to rotate the car. Carbonado GTS is the only Mansory Aventador programme that has its splitter and rear-wing geometry signed off against the OEM ALA 2.0 calibration map. The dive planes flanking the front splitter sit outboard of the ALA 2.0 inlet zone; the swan-neck wing's mount columns clear the rear ALA 2.0 flap travel by 35 mm at full extension. After install, a Lamborghini-specialist diagnostic head re-zeros the ALA 2.0 sensors against the new front clip pressures — that calibration check is part of the standard Carbonado GTS fitment workflow.
Comprehensive wide carbon body. OEM bumpers replace, OEM bonnet replaces, OEM fenders are cut back and flared. Default surface: lacquered visible-weave. Painted body-colour finish runs as a separate paint cycle on commission.
Build time at a Lamborghini-experienced shop: 16 to 20 days including ALA 2.0 calibration.
The L539 in SVJ tune makes 770 PS at 8 500 rpm and 720 Nm at 6 750 rpm stock — the Aventador's only naturally-aspirated V12 spec to break 770 PS without forced induction. The Mansory Powerbox plus matched sport exhaust lifts the channel to roughly 900 PS / 780 Nm. On a 2.8 s 0-100 km/h donor the gain is felt mainly in mid-range response rather than launch acceleration. The sport exhaust is a tip-and-mid-section change with a valved muffler — OEM Lamborghini titanium catalysts and headers carry over.
Matched fitment is the Mansory M-series fully forged 22" wheel in stagger sizing tuned to the SVJ's rear-biased dynamic balance and the bonded-flare clearance. Catalogue finishes: diamond black, polished silver, gun metal and Mansory bronze. The forging clears the OEM Lamborghini carbon-ceramic brake package without spacers. The full 22" range lives at the Hodoor forged wheels collection.
The kit fits the 2018-2022 Lamborghini Aventador SVJ Coupé and only the SVJ Coupé. It does not fit the base Aventador (LP700-4), the Aventador S (LP740-4 — that car runs the catalogue Aventador kit), the Aventador SV (LP750-4 — covered by the J.S.1 Edition), the SVJ Roadster (commissioned separately because the rear deck differs), the LP780-4 Ultimae final-edition cars, or the Revuelto hybrid successor.
Background on the platform sits at the Wikipedia Aventador entry; Mansory's official portfolio is at the Aventador SVJ portfolio. Care notes for lacquered carbon parts live in the carbon fibre care guide.
The 900-unit SVJ Coupé production run dispersed across roughly forty markets, with collector concentration in the Gulf, the Italian-Swiss-Monaco corridor and the Pacific Rim. Ten years on, ALA 2.0-equipped cars trade as recognised milestones in the V12 Lamborghini lineage — Carbonado GTS commissions cluster in markets where SVJs already live:
Does the Mansory front clip break the OEM ALA 2.0 calibration?
No, when fitted to spec. The dive planes sit outboard of the ALA 2.0 inlet zone and the splitter geometry is signed off against the active-aero pressure map. A Lamborghini-specialist diagnostic head re-zeros the ALA 2.0 sensors against the new front clip pressures — that step is part of the standard Carbonado GTS fitment workflow.
How does the swan-neck wing relate to the OEM ALA 2.0 active wing?
The swan-neck Mansory wing sits as a fixed downforce element above the OEM ALA 2.0 active wing plane — the active wing keeps full vectoring travel underneath. The Mansory wing is not a replacement for the ALA 2.0 wing; it is a layered supplement.
What's the gain pattern with Powerbox plus sport exhaust on a 770 PS donor?
Roughly +130 PS at peak and a sharper mid-range step. On a 2.8 s 0-100 donor the change is felt more in mid-range pull than in launch acceleration. The Powerbox is reversible and does not modify the OEM ECU mapping.
How does Carbonado GTS differ from Carbonado Apertos and from the J.S.1 Edition?
Carbonado GTS is for the SVJ Coupé and is calibrated to ALA 2.0. Carbonado Apertos is for the SVJ Roadster (revised rear deck and roof). The J.S.1 Edition is for the older LP750-4 SV donor (no ALA, numbered series).
Is the SVJ still serviceable in 2026?
Yes. The L539 V12 ran 2017 to 2022 across SVJ, Aventador S, LP780-4 Ultimae and the Essenza SCV12 track-only car. Lamborghini parts supply through dealers is solid and specialist independents service the cars routinely.
