Lamborghini has a new Murcielago under development, Auto Express has learned.
The new machine, which is tipped to be revealed late in 2011 before going on sale in 2012 will also get a carbon fibre composite monocoque chassis - replacing the aluminium arrangement it currently offers.
Though detail remains scarce, the new design will make it much
lighter than the Murciélago it replaces ò€“ and guarantees stunning
performance to go with the incredible looks. Up front is a
pronounced spoiler and fresh headlamps ò€“ much like the Reventon special edition (pictured) ò€“ but designers have reserved
the biggest changes for the rear. They have moved the Murciélagoò€™s
trademark angular exhaust closer to the ground, while new strip-like LED tail-lights replace the current square units.
Power
is expected to come from a 6.0-litre V12 with around 700bhp ò€“ that
would propel the car from 0-60mph in just over three seconds.
The new Lambo will also be wider and longer, while four-wheel drive ensures itò€™s firmly planted on the road.
