Lamborghini Gallardo 2004 Bahrain Prices & Specs

The Gallardo is Lamborghini's smallest offering yet, and takes its name from a fighting bull or something. The cab-forward cockpit and mid-engine design are traditional Lamborghini, available as coupe or Spyder convertible, but the biggest deletion are upward-opening scissor doors like on the Murcielago and earlier Diablo, offering conventional doors instead. An Audi-derived 5.0-litre V10 engine, upgraded for 2006, with drive-by-wire throttle control sits behind the front seats, while the standard transmission is a six-speed manual. An optional E-gear sequential manual transmission features variable modes such as sport, automatic and low-traction. An active rear spoiler pops up at high speeds for aerodynamic stability. Safety features include front airbags and dual side head-and-thorax airbags, along with ABS and EBD, equipped with a front automatic brake differential and a rear differential equipped with a friction-type 45-per cent limited slip feature. The Gallardo offers 42/58 front/rear weight distribution, all-wheel-drive, 19-inch rims with low-profile tyres and massive Brembo disc brakes as standard.
