We all know that Lamborghini is working on the successor of its most successful sports car Gallardo, and it is also said that a concept version of the vehicle will be showcased at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. The sports car will go on sale by the mid of 2014, and it is likely to be named as Carbrera. Now, we have the first images of the car, caught testing on some racing facility in Europe.
The vehicle testing was fully camouflage, gives a glimpse of a combination of the current Gallardo and the supercar Aventador. The rear too was fully covered, but it seems like it gets a new rear design, quad pipes appears to have retained, and the newly designed lights are also added to the car.
The front seems to house similar cues, but the lights are expected to get a new style, and the overall size of the car seems to be larger, wider and longer. The side profile of the hypercar also gets a new intakes behind the rear windows, which enhances the cooling and indicates a more powerful engine.
Under the hood, a revamped naturally aspirated 5.2-litre V10 gasoline motor, which is expected to develop massive 592bhp and 542Nm of top torque. The engine will be coupled to a seven speed dual clutch automatic transmission, which transmits power to all four-wheels. Lamborghini Gallardo has been the most successful model for the Italian automaker with over 12,000 units sold since it was introduced in 2004.
