Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4




The Gallardo LP560-4 is on sale from € 190,895. It has a 560 hp engine, 30 hp more than the Gallardo Superleggera. Besides the engine, Lamborghini has also made changes to the suspension, transmission, AWD system and aerodynamics.

The Gallardo LP560-4 with automatic transmission (with manual shift worsen performance and fuel) from standing reaches 100 km / h in 3.7 s and achieves a maximum speed of 325 km / h. The average consumption is 13.7 l/100 km. A Porsche 911 GT2, which is slightly less powerful (530 hp) and weighs a little more, is just as fast and spend less. A Corvette Z06 (513 hp) runs a little less and spend more.

The LP560-4 has a new 5.2 L engine positioned longitudinally in rear center position. It is a ten-cylinder "V" direct injection gives the maximum power at 8,000 rpm (more on the engine). The fuel tank holds 90 liters capacity.

It is available with six-speed manual gearbox or a robotised: no clutch pedal and the box internally is like a manual gear pairs, but with a control for selecting gears. This automatic transmission is called "e-gear" and has cam behind the wheel to change gears. With respect to that of other Lamborghini has been revised to make it faster (up to 40%) and weighs less.





The automated gearbox has five programs running: 'Normal', 'Sport', 'Corsa', 'Thrust Mode' and 'Automatic'. The difference between the three is the rate at which the gears are changed and the speed with which change is effected. The 'Thrust Mode' serves for maximum acceleration from standing.

As in other Gallardo, traction is permanent all-wheel drive through a viscous element (with a 30:70 distribution, front / rear). Between the rear wheels is a mechanical limited slip rear (set to 45%). Front carries a free differential: what slows the spinning wheel (when it occurs) is an integrated electronic system to control stability.

The suspension remains deformable parallelogram (double triangle aluminum) on all wheels, but now has a new kinematics, moreover, in the rear there is an additional arm. The springs and shock absorbers have a different setting.

There are two different braking equipment. The series has a front discs (Brembo) of 365 mm and the rears are 356 mm in diameter. Optionally, discs can be ceramic reinforced with carbon fiber ("CCB"), being the 380 mm front (the rear not increase in size). In any case, the clamps are eight four-piston front and rear.

Pirelli tires has made​​, P-Zero, of least resistance, are of varying degrees on each axis: 235/35ZR19 the front and the rear 295/30ZR19.





There are some changes that affect the aerodynamics: front air intakes are larger (here are water radiators, which are part of a circuit of coolant 20 l), the front spoiler improves aerodynamic equilibrium at high speed, the rear diffuser has a new design. As in all Gallardo, the rear spoiler rises to exceed 120 km / h.

It measures 4.34 m long, 1.90 m wide and 1.16 high (very little). It weighs 1,485 kg, with a 43:57 front and rear, respectively. The frame is made of aluminum. Has a structure of extruded parts, joined by other castings. On this structure there stampings, welded together by screws or rivets. The bumpers are made of thermoplastic and are attached to the frame with screws.

The trunk is placed front and has 110 liters capacity, although a small space behind the seats where leave some things.

The equipment includes stability control, front and side airbags (head and thorax), dual zone climate control and electrically folding mirrors. It also has dual xenon headlights and daytime running lights with 15 light emitting diodes (LEDs) arranged in 'Y'.





The seats have electric and may be coated or Alcantara skin. You can also have carbon fiber details as part of the air conditioning controls and gearshift in the instrument panel and brake lever (not electric). In addition, there are several possibilities for personalization of the interior.

For the body's new colors: white, black and brown, all in matte finish.

In the options list items such as TV, Bluetooth phone connection, a rear camera, a system that can raise the body to (for example) to facilitate access to a garage, a glass top to cover the engine compartment or several tires (models 'Cordelia' and 'Callisto', the series are 'Apollo'.
