Gallardo successor (coming 2013) to keep V10 engine

and getting a new radical design according to CEO Winkelmann.

Yabba Dabba Doo!


http://blog.caranddriver.com/lamborghini-gallardo-replacement-to-share-more-with-audi-r8-will-make-clear-cut-from-current-car/

Winkelmann stated that the car will make “a clear cut” from the Gallardo, especially visually. “We always say that design is not an evolution but a revolution, and this will be the philosophy of the follow-up to the Gallardo.” We’d guess that the car will take on more of the menacing angularity of the Aventador flagship, although don’t expect it to adopt its sibling’s carbon-fiber-intensive construction. (Winkelmann: “What we have done for Aventador is not necessarily the right thing to do for a different car.”)

I'm almost positive it will. The R8 replacement is set to have a DCT. I'll be interested to see what Underground can do with an even lighter platform, the same displacement, and dual clutch tranny.

Love the Sesto, but I hate how Lambo keeps making cars with suuuuuper long front overhangs and almost zero rear overhang. I don't see how you guys don't destroy those awesome front splitters.

Front lift. And those front spoiler adds little extension to basically no overhang in the front to begin with.
