The fifth episode of this Lamborghini documentary focuses on the Gallardo, and in particular on two models: the Gallardo LP 570-4 Super Leggera and the Gallardo Spyder.

The Super Leggera’s structure can be summed up in an ultra-light body stretched over a tubular frame, and thanks to the extensive use of carbon fibre this vehicle has been crowned the lightest in the Lamborghini range. With a top speed of 325 km/h (202 mph), the LP 570-4 Super Leggera only comes second to the Aventador in terms of performance.

The Gallardo Spyder was first unveiled at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show as an “al fresco” version of the v10 super sports car. Needless to say, watching this video only makes you wish you could jump immediately in one of these jewels and spend the rest of your life cruising from riviera to riviera.

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.

Check out our gallery of the Lamborghini stand at the Bologna show which includes shots of the Gallardo Super Trofeo and the Estoque, along with our first comprehensive look at the Estoque interior.
