Compare the2022 Lamborghini AventadorVS 2021 Mercedes AMG GT

The Aventador has all-wheel drive to maximize traction under poor conditions, especially in ice and snow. The Mercedes AMG GT doesn’t offer all-wheel drive.

Both the Aventador and the Mercedes AMG GT have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, driver and front passenger knee airbags, side-impact head airbags, front seatbelt pretensioners, four-wheel antilock brakes, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, daytime running lights, rearview cameras and available rear parking sensors.

The Aventador has more powerful engines than the Mercedes AMG GT:

An engine control system that can shut down some of the engine’s cylinders helps improve the Aventador’s fuel efficiency. The Mercedes AMG GT doesn’t offer a system that can shut down part of the engine.

The Aventador has 4 gallons more fuel capacity than the Mercedes AMG GT (23.8 vs. 19.8 gallons), for longer range between fill-ups.

All wheel drive, available in the Aventador, provides the best traction for acceleration in wet, dry, and icy conditions. In corners, all wheel drive allows both outside wheels to provide power, balancing the car. This allows for better handling. The Mercedes AMG GT is not available with all wheel drive.

For better stopping power the Aventador’s standard brake rotors are larger than those on the Mercedes AMG GT:

The Aventador stops shorter than the Mercedes AMG GT:

For better traction and acceleration, the Aventador has larger rear tires than the Mercedes AMG GT (355/25R21 vs. 295/30R19). The Aventador’s rear tires are larger than the largest rear tires available on the Mercedes AMG GT (355/25R21 vs. 335/30R20).

The Aventador’s 255/30R20 front and 355/25R21 rear tires provide better handling because they have a lower 30 series front and 25 series rear profile (height to width ratio) that provides a stiffer sidewall than the Mercedes AMG GT’s standard 35 series front and 30 series rear tires.

For better ride, handling and brake cooling the Aventador has standard 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheels. Smaller 19-inch wheels are standard on the Mercedes AMG GT Coupe. The Mercedes AMG GT’s largest wheels are only 19-inches in the front and 20-inches in the rear.

For a smoother ride and more stable handling, the Aventador’s wheelbase is 2.8 inches longer than on the Mercedes AMG GT (106.3 inches vs. 103.5 inches).

For better handling and stability, the track (width between the wheels) on the Aventador is 1.4 inches wider in the front and .3 inches wider in the rear than the average track on the Mercedes AMG GT.

The Aventador handles at 1.05 G’s, while the Mercedes AMG GT Coupe pulls only 1.03 G’s of cornering force in a Motor Trend skidpad test.

The design of the Lamborghini Aventador amounts to more than styling. The Aventador has an aerodynamic coefficient of drag of .33 Cd. That is lower than the Mercedes AMG GT (.35 to .36). A more efficient exterior helps the Aventador go faster and keeps the interior quieter. It also helps the Aventador get better fuel mileage.

The Aventador’s instruments include an oil pressure gauge and a temperature gauge - which could save your engine! Often ‘idiot lights’ don’t warn you until damage has been done. The Mercedes AMG GT does not have an oil pressure gauge.

In poor weather, headlights can lose their effectiveness as grime builds up on their lenses. This can reduce visibility without the driver realizing. The Aventador has standard headlight washers to keep headlight output high. The Mercedes AMG GT doesn’t offer headlight washers.
