The Murcielago gets a face-lift. Its design is more extreme and the Murcielago’s 580hp, 6.2-liter, V-12 engine will be upgraded to a 600hp 6.5-liter. Only the Murcielago coupe will be changed. The roadster will stay with its current design for the immediate future. Eventually the roadster will get the same changes.
Lamborghini promised all somehow to astonish
On the words of the head of company Lamborghini of Stephan Vinkel'manna (Stephan Winkelmann), all visitors of the stand of this model on the Geneva auto-salon, which will pass in the following month, awaits outstanding surprise. What surprise precisely prepared Lamborghini for the auto-show thus far not known; however, some specialists already advanced several assumptions.
One of the potential novelties of Italian stamp is the prototype of extra-road builder Lamborghini. Earlier we already reported, that this automobile can be built on the base of the platform of model Audi Q7 and in the case of series production will be obtained either the 400- strong motor V8 or the 500- strong engine V10. moreover, on some information, a similar extra-road builder can appear in sale as long ago as 2008.
The second aspirant to the role of "surprise" is prototype four-place sportkupe Lamborghini Espada with the landing formula "2+2". This automobile, on knowledges existing at the given moment, it is planned to build on the base of platform D4, which in the future will become basis for creating the new generations of the sedans VW Phaeton and Audi A8. the "large" sleeping compartment Lamborghini can be completed by engines V10 or V12, borrowed in models Gallardo and Murcielago respectively, and its series production it is planned to begin in 2007.
Finally, one additional novelty Lamborghini can become the conceptual sleeping compartment Miura, whose prototype was shown in the beginning of year on the auto-show in Detroit. LINK |
