The High Cost of Super Car Spare Parts: Why Lamborghini Brake Pads are So Expensive

Jakarta –

Not only cars that are used daily, super cars also need maintenance and replacement spare part routinely. But don’t be surprised, because it turns out the cost of replacing parts for this ‘sultan’ car can cost tens of times more than a regular car.

A general repair shop specializing in super cars told detikOto that the cost of replacing a super car like a Lamborghini could reach tens of millions. Even when compared with premium cars in the Range Rover class, the replacement price brake pad aka Lamborghini brake linings are still much more expensive.

“For brake linings, for example on a (Range Rover) Evoque car, that’s around IDR 1.5 million to IDR 2 million. That’s locally available. So if we talk again to the (Lamborghini) Aventador, one set is front and rear brake linings “That could be more than IDR 40 million. IDR 45 million is the same as shipping and taxes,” said Supercar Id Director, Resha Ahadiat, to detikOto.

However, generally, the intensity of replacing Lamborghini Aventador brake linings is certainly not as fast as the Range Rover Evoque. Replacement of parts for this Italian super car remains in accordance with the service life or mileage of the car.

“Only the Aventador itself because the car is rarely used to replace its own brake pads, now in 2023 we have only replaced 5 cars from 2012 because the kilometers are low. Well, while the brake pads are suitable for use, because they are rarely used, that means they will definitely still last. ,” said Resha.

This employee of a public workshop located in Ciputat, South Tangerang said spare part Super cars are priced more expensive because the components are imported from abroad.

“That’s why supercar owners have to know that every spare part replacement will definitely take a minimum of two weeks. Because there are orders, shipping, all kinds of things,” said Resha.

According to him, currently purchasing parts can be done easily. However, the difficulty occurs when analyzing the problems of the super car and the high price of spare parts means purchasing parts must be done without making mistakes.

“Actually, now there are lots of websites providing spare parts. They are all open on the internet. So, our problem is being able to find out what part is damaged, that is the problem,” concluded Resha.

The price of a set of Lamborghini Aventador brake pads is quite fantastic. The price of this important component for super car braking is also equivalent to two new Honda Vario 125 units.

From detikcom monitoring, the price of the Honda Vario 125 CBS as of October 2023 is IDR 22,550,000. This means that two new Vario 125s cost around IDR 45,100,000, which is close to the estimated cost of replacing brake linings at the Supercar.id workshop.
