The Murcielago LP670 SV was the star of 2009 Geneva Motorshow, but Lamborghini also has been developing a secret roadster which is just as magnificent…
The limited edition LP650-4 had been revealed earlier by the internet but it’s now officially announced by the guys from Santa Agata. The roadster is 20 hp weaker then the SV but still 10 hp stronger than the LP640, if you are that sorta person who cares about numbers too much then here you are : 0-62mph in 3.4 seconds and top speed of 205mph!
To be brutley honest, it looks exactly the same as the 640 roadster, only new bespoke paintjob and trimming set it apart. The Grey color of body is combined with some orange parts which makes it fascinating and also in the cabin, the leather and alcantara upholstery beside the orange flappy gear shifters are in good harmony with the exterior.
2010 Lamborghini Murcielago LP650-4 Roadster will only be made in 50 units.
Press Release:
Lamborghini releases first images of the Murciélago LP 650-4 Roadster
Automobili Lamborghini has released the first photographs of a limited edition Murciélago LP 650-4 Roadster.
The Roadster version of the Murciélago will offer an uprated 6.5 litre V12 engine that produces 650 hp (478 kW) along with permanent four-wheel drive: hence the model’s LP 650-4 moniker. With 660 Nm of torque, top performance is at 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in 3.4 seconds. The top speed is around 330 Km/h (205mph).
The special edition model will be produced in a limited volume (50 units only), with a Grigio Telesto exterior that combines grey bodywork with a special bright orange Arancio LP 650-4 featured on the front spoiler and sills. The LP 650-4 logo applied to the car’s exterior is recognition of the car’s increased power. The car features orange brake calipers and a transparent V12-engine cover, which shows off the V12 engine behind the driver.
Interior features echo the car’s striking grey-and-orange exterior: besides the orange touches, there is an asymmetric dash design, with black Alcantara Nera on the driver’s side, including door panel and central tunnel, and black leather Nero Perseus on the passenger’s side.
The increased power of the Murciélago engine, from 640 to 650 hp, will be unique to the Murciélago LP 650-4 Roadster: it demonstrates even further the developments that Lamborghini is able to offer from a current engine, and creates the exclusive characteristic of the Murciélago LP 650-4 Roadster.
