This is the newest member of the Lamborghini
family. It was first shown at the Geneva International car show in March
6-10, 2003. It is a smaller version of the Murciélago, keeping the
signature front view of that car. . The engine is a 10 cylinder DOHC
four valve V10 (90 degree), 5 liter, 500 Hp, 510 Nm engine. It is
mounted under an optional transparent cover. The 90 degree angle of the
V10 allows for a lower overall car height. The car is capable of
reaching a top speed of about 185 MPH.
The
'Gallardo' name (as for the Miura, Diablo and Murciélago) was taken from the
world of bull fighting. Gallardo is the name or a breed of Spanish fighting bull
first used in bullfighting in Spain in the 1800's. Historically, these bulls
have enjoyed a well-deserved fame of being the most beautiful specimen within
the race. As to the car, it has by far been Lamborghinis most successful
car to date.
