0-60 in 2.5
10.4 @ 135.

I wasn't quite expecting it to be THAT quick.


Update: Added similar test for Aventador:

Here's the Aventador in 2012 tested the same way by C&D. The pertinent stats:
0-60 in 3.0
0-100 in 6.4
Quarter mile - 10.9 @ 133 mph.

That does surprise me as drove one for 18 laps at Goodwood and whilst it felt quicker than the Avantador it did not feel as fast as those numbers suggest it is... maybe they had a "really good" one to test...

Lovely car btw.

Assuming these numbers are correct (though C&D is pretty respectable), then I'd imagine the way it gets the quarter mile number is just through a great launch. I'd think from a roll at pretty much any speed it'd give up some acceleration numbers to the Aventador and such.

I hope those numbers are right, but I understand (and have some of my own) skepticism.

My guess is that when rolling you are at low revs whereas with 0-60 you are using launch control and something like 7000rpm and dumping the clutch.
This. Pretty much the case with all new performance cars.
