Lamborghini’s new V8 Gallardo spotted again




Several V8 Gallardo test mules have been spotted over the past month, with this latest prototype photographed at Lamborghini’s Sant’Agata headquarters. Looking almost identical to the current V10 model, the new V8 Gallardo can be differentiated by the unique tailpipes and the distinctly unique engine burble. The most likely power source is VW Group’s 4.2L FSI V8 borrowed from the Audi R8 but with slight modifications to give it a unique sound.


Unlike the current Gallardo, the new model is rumored to feature a RWD configuration, but Lamborghini has said in the past that it considered AWD to be a unique feature of its cars so the baby Gallardo may yet remain AWD. See several more images and a video of the car over at our friends at AutoGespot or see our previous video of it circling the Nurburgring.
