Lamborghini will use this year’s exhibition in Geneva to present the most recent modification of the Gallardo, which the Italian company released photos and information today. The car is called the LP570-4 Superleggera and as is evident by initials, the power of the 5.2-liter V10 engine has been increased by 10 h.p. to 570 h.p. Assembly combined with five-speed robotized gearbox e-gear. Moreover, the modification is hot with 70 kg. lighter than standard, and only weighs 1340 kilograms. This is achieved by aerodynamic package and carbon elements in the interior, polycarbonate lenses, lightweight titanium alloy wheels and steering wheel. From Lamborghini report that Superleggera LP570-4 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h for only 3.4 sec and from 0-200 km/h for 10.2 sec and the maximum speed to reach is 325 km/h. Its energy efficiency is improved up to 20.5 percent, the average fuel consumption is 13.5l/100km. The car also has a powerful braking 8-stroke whose front discs are 365 mm. And rear – 356 mm.

When at the beginning of the year, the head of AMG, Volker Morninveg said that ended the war of horsepower, probably many of you think: “This what they did talk, it can not happen, and were done. If the AMG no longer pledged to the maxim “the more power the better”, it by no means true for some tuning companies such as the Underground Racing. The boys from North Carolina (USA) presented its own version of the Lamborghini Gallardo, which were developed for a client is called simply John. The car is called TTG, which stands for Twin-Turbo Gallardo. Underground Racing have created a real monster, has 1 500 h.p. or whole 970 h.p. more power than the standard V10 engine of the Lamborghini Gallardo. Tuners have achieved impressive results through two large turbocharger and replacement of almost all the internal parts of the unit, which led to power 1875 h.p. But part of it is lost in transmission and in the gearbox and differential. When you received your machine, the first thing that has made its owner John has been tested to half a mile. American has elapsed distance less than 10sek. By this time picked up just 256 kilometers per hour

The German tuner Wheelsandmore introduced its new model YarroW, which is based on the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder. The company’s engineers have managed to increase the power of a standard 5.2-liter V10 engine to 620k.s., so that car could easily be called the LP620. Moreover, the maximum torque of the unit increased to 785Nm. To achieve these indicators, are Wheelsandmore software reprogrammed engine management and have modified intake and exhaust systems, while the latter is capable of setting issued by the exhaust noise. Other mechanical improvements, which can boast of so-called YarroW are more powerful braking mechanisms 8-stroke thickness and 380 millimeters. 6-stoke discs front and 360 millimeters and thickness. rear discs, adjustable suspension and allowing the car to decreased up to 45 millimeters to the road.

Today Lamborghini revealed any details about the new Gallardo LP550-2, which would be the cheapest model in the company’s product line. The car is dedicated to the famous test pilot Valentino Balboa, who worked for the Italians for 40 years. Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 is driven by the 5.2-liter engine of the Gallardo LP560-4, but its power is reduced from 560 to 550 h.p. Another significant difference between the two models is that when the drive is only economical to the rear wheels rather than four. Because the new drive, Lamborghini engineers had to replace springs, dempferite, stabilizers and tires, and make changes to the aerodynamics of the car. Gallardo LP550-2 was also obtained with 45% differential creep limited, modified gearbox e-gear system and changes in ESP. The weight of the Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 is 1 380 kilograms. Which is 30 kilograms. lower than that of the LP560-4. However, lower power and changing with 4×4 rear transmission had effect and acceleration from 0-100 kilometers / hr occurs 3.9sec and the maximum speed that can reach the car is 320 kilometers / hr For comparison LP560-4 in these indicators are 3.7sec and 325 kilometers / hr.
