Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera is the Gallardo sports at this time. However, attention is devoted to both, those who understand fully what it means uncompromising sportiness. The new Lamborghini Gallardo Leggera opened at Geneva Motor Show 2007, immediately became a reference point for the super sport car fans with pedigree. To a normal Gallardo, Superleggera “lost weight” of not less than 100 kg of its total mass, which now reaches 1465 kg – one of the main solutions includes the use of light weight materials like carbon fiber onto the back and front, side skirts , mirror housings, door panels and central tunnel. The hood is made of carbon fiber, while the window, that shows the engine is a transparent poly-carbonate material and other glass surfaces. Inside, new seats are made of monocoque carbon fiber and are covered in Alcantara, contributing to lower the total mass. The 5.0 liter V10 engine is changed subtly, improving volumetric efficiency – were reduced intake load losses and exhaust pressures eliminated with electronic control panel update. The power of the car is 530 hp / 8.100 rpm, 10 hp more than the Gallardo Spyder and 30 hp more than the regular Gallardo. The transmission is a robot E-Gear, guaranteeing fast and smoothly changes of the 6 speed gearbox. Wheel-drive system remains valid, with the central viscous coupling and automatic connection. Thus we are not surprised that a report Gallardo Leggera achieve mass / power of only 2.5 kg / hp, which translates into a noticeable improvement for the performance for the racing enthusiasts: only 3.8 seconds from 0-100 km / h, a 0.2 second better than the base model.
