Lamborghini has revealed the 2013 Gallardo and Edizione Tecnica package at Paris 2012 as a stop-gap before the new Gallardo in 2014.
Lamborghini have been teasing the ‘new’ Gallardo, as we reported yesterday, as their ‘Major new Car at every Motor Show’ for Paris 2012. Only it’s not.
What the 2013 Lamborghini Gallardo is is a fill-in between the current Gallardo and an all new model in 2014. So, a bit of a facelift to the range, some new colours and a sexy-sounding Italian add-on – the Edizione Tecnica package – are the order of the day.
Out goes the LP570-4 Trofeo Stradale, the 2WD LP550-2 Coupe and Spyder stay much the same as do the LP670-4 Superleggera and Spyder Performante, but the LP560-4 Coupe and Spyder get to look a bit more butch and get some barking alloys.
On the ‘special’ side of the Gallardo we get the Edizione Tecnica package which offer E-Gear, ride height lift for getting over speed bimps, a big back wing and ceramic brakes. Offered in three exclusive colours - Nero Nemesis/Arancio Argos, Arancio Argos/Nero Nemesis and Bianco Canopus/Arancio Argos – and is offered on the Superleggera and Spyder Performante.
As well as the 2013 Gallardo, Lamborghini has had a fiddle with the Aventador and added stop-start, cylinder deactivation, carbon pack option and new alloys.
Not quite the ‘New’ Lamborghini we were hoping for.
