Bologna Motor Show Live 2008: new Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder

posted: Thursday 04 December 2008 by Alison in: Coupe Spider Lamborghini Super cars

At the Bologna Motor Show Lamborghini has presented its Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder for the first time in Europe. The Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder appeared in all black, contrary to expectations that it would be revealed in white.

The Spyder is perhaps even more spectacular than the coupé, though it shares the 5.2L, V10 engine at 560hp. It also has the same all wheel drive system. The new edition of the Gallardo Spyder has an excellent weight power ratio of 2.77kg/hp, which gives the car its excellent performance figures of a maximum speed of 324 km/hr and acceleration to 100km in just four seconds. All this along with CO2 emissions reduced by 18 percent compared to the previous model.
