Ciao everyone, here it's Marchettino.
Today my Japan Road Trip takes me to visit Lamborghini Azabu,
which is the oldest, as well as the biggest Lamborghini dealership in Japan, come and see the showroom!
They got this pretty menacing Gallardo SuperTrofeo Stradale, with a very cool matching plate.
They got also a couple of Huracans, pretty sweet in orange.
Also, they got also these carbon fiber luggages!
That looks pretty amazing! They're made by my friends at Orobianco, I have one and I really love it!
The Huracan in white,
and the Aventador.
I wanna take you just for a quick tour around the showroom because the exciting part of this tour is just behind the dealership, come and see!
I am very excited because
it's time to wake up Tokyo!
Let's go for a drive!
Ok so, driving for my very first time in the streets of Japan in a Lamborghini Aventador!
I can't thank Lamborghini Azabu enough for this!
I've driven the Aventador
.......
yeah, japapese sat-nav, very useful!
I've driven the Aventador a couple of times but actually I've never given you my driving impressions so
today we're gonna the Aventador for a drive in the city of Tokyo and hopefully around some empty streets
and I will let you know what I think about this car!
We're in good company actually, because this red Huracan is with us during this test drive.
I have to admit to feel a little bit nervous to drive the Aventador in Tokyo.
It's a very crowded city, so much cars, traffic and this is not really the most practical car in the world to use in a city!
The rear visibility is..
what I'm talking about, there's no rear visibility!
It's very low and this car is so big and wide!
I keep my eyes open and look everywhere all the time!
As soon as we find more empty streets, we'll switch to Sport mode.
Right now, we're driving in Strada mode which is the most docile setup.
The steering wheel is very light, so does the throttle response.
The gear changing is automatic and not that quick to be honest, but it's the right setup to drive in these conditions.
I don't understand a word of what the sat-nav says so
I will just try to keep up with the red Huracan and I think it's time to switch to Sport mode!
This is so beautiful!
Tokyo bay!
It sucks to find traffic in a tunnel, especially when you're driving a V12 powered supercar!
Let's try to hear it a little bit!
In Sport mode, it behaves like a raging Bull!
The exhaust note is just amazing!
I really like the gear change, it's a single clutch transmission and
it's not quick as double clutch but when you change gear you feel the kick in the back!
Oh, finally another tunnel!
You know, I've always driven the Lamborghini Aventador in Sport mode, but now I wanna try to test the Corsa mode
which is the most wild setup!
WOW!
While driving in Sport mode
I was thinking that it was impossible to be more wild than this but I was wrong!
Can you see my head when I gear change?
This is so violent, so brutal!
In Corsa mode, the car feels even more reactive but
what's very wild is the gear change because
it feels like this car wants to tear your head off!
They hear us, they move!
There's no need to use the lights, they just hear you and move!
Driving flatout in the tunnels of Tokyo with a Lamborghini Aventador, priceless!
I really need to brake
and slow down a little bit because
this is tremendously fast!
You're flatout for like 5 seconds and you look at the speed and you're like " Oh my God! "
I'm a happy boy!
You can feel the essence of Lamborghini inside the Aventador because
it looks, it sounds and it drives like a beast!
I think this is one of the best Lamborghini's every made!
Can you see my face?
Well, when you're stuck in the traffic and you have nothing to do..
So here we are in a car park at I don't know where
but we just stopped for a coffee break, I really needed!
I have to say that driving the Aventador for 1 hour is pretty exhausting but fun!
Just look at them together, they look so great!
Both red with black wheels, this is such a devilish duo!
I would love to go back to the dealership with the Huracan but sadly for insurance reasons I cannot drive it
but I'm not complaining because I'm driving again the Aventador!
Ok so, we're back on the road with the Aventador and I have to admit that driving it is pretty exhausting!
Jet-lag is not helpful either but falling asleep behind the wheel of a Lamborghini is pretty impossible!
And right now we're driving back to the dealership and I will look forward to drive through more tunnels!
Corsa mode is engaged, let's go!
Window down,
shift down a couple of gears and allow me to play you the song of my people!
I think I've just found out the least useful feature on the Lamborghini Aventador, the radio!
How can you not love this?
I'm worse than a kid!
I know, I'm childish
But this is also what cars like this are made for, to bring out the child in you!
Whereas most manufacturers tend to downsize their engines, the Lamborghini Aventador features a N/A 6.5L V12
which sounds pretty much like a giant middle finger to our society!
Do we really need turbo engines? NAH!
It's not about the numbers and power that an engine may generate,
it's about the driving emotions and fun and you cannot beat a soundtrack like this!
If you've never had a fight with Mike Tyson, driving a Lamborghini Aventador is probably the closest feeling you will get!
You know what, I'm still driving in Corsa mode
but I've come up with the conclusion that I think that Sport mode is the best mode if you want to drive the Aventador, or at least on a public street
because in Corsa mode, the car feels way too much brutal and nervous and also,
I don't understand why in Corsa mode, which is the setup made for the best performance,
the downshifts feel slower than in Sport mode!
And you can listen
whereas in Sport mode feels quicker.
So, it's the end of the day and wer'e back with the Aventador and the Huracan
and I'm here with Mr.Ishii at Lamborghini Azabu.
I really wanna say arigatò to you and the dealership for this day because it has been truly special
and I hope you guys did enjoy the video.
I hope we can make more videos in the future because today was much fun driving around Tokyo and especially in the tunnels!
