"And now the news"...

SANT'AGATA BOLOGNESE, Italy — Lamborghini will unveil a face-lifted version of its Gallardo, likely to be called LP550, at the upcoming Geneva show.

The LP550 will be powered by a 5.2-liter V10 with direct-injection technology. Applying some of the high-speed powertrain principles Audi has introduced in its latest RS4 model, the updated Gallardo's FSI power plant will produce 550 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque, making it 30 hp and 15 lb-ft stronger than its 5.0-liter predecessor.

The engine isn't the only piece of hardware to receive extensive modifications. Both the manual gearbox and the optional e-gear sequential transmission have been improved and are now capable of sending more power and torque to a lighter, more efficient permanent all-wheel-drive system. Upgraded brakes and a stiffer chassis help to harness the power and improve ride quality.

Designwise, the LP550's more aggressive character is emphasized with a deeply revised body kit, featuring completely restyled front and rear ends, whereas the cockpit remains largely untouched.

Lamborghini hasn't hinted yet at pricing, but with the current Gallardo fetching $182,000 in U.S. trim, expect the LP550 edition to easily top $200,000.


Can't wait[:cool:]
 
Há aqui algo que me está a dar a volta ao miolo. Então esse motor não era suposto ir para um Audi R8 V10 mas acabaram com a ideia por todos os carros de teste terem ardido...?! :confused:
 
não confundas os V10 Audi, com os V10 Lambo.

apesar do bloco ser igual , tudo o resto é díspar.

o motor que ardeu nos R8 foi o V0 5.2l com 2 turbos.

este eventual 5.2l v10 da Lambo será atmosférico


cumprimentos
 
Estou um pouco preocupado com o Murciélago SV...

É que segundo se diz, vai ser RWD e como a plataforma teve os seus principios há 20 anos não sei se vai estar ao nível da concorrência:(
