Lamborghini will introduce a special edition of the Gallardo at the Paris Show, limited to just 185 examples. It's designed to showcase its personalisation service "ad personam", which can transform each and every Lamborghini into a unique vehicle.

The Lamborghini Gallardo Nera, which is available in the basic colours “Nero Serapis” and “Nero Noctis”, features special paintwork in matt black on the side mirrors, rear spoiler, rear body panels, roof, selected front panels and on the door sills and rear apron. Additional details are: matt black rims in the “Callisto” design with the Lamborghini logo, brake callipers in silver, white side indicator lenses and darkened tail lights.

The interior is styled in the colours “Nero Perseus” and “Bianco Polar” using the “bicolour sportive” equipment variant. A further “Branding Package” and the ad personam equipment package provide additional distinctive touches. The “Leather II” variant in “Bianco Polar” includes leather trims for the climate control operating panel, handbrake and gear lever console in addition to the inner door handles and seat side cushions.

The seats boast rhomboidal stitching in the “Q-citura” pattern, which can also be found on the Alcantara roof lining, door trims and the partition wall between the seats and the engine compartment. Instrument rings and decorative stitching on the steering wheel, plus white piping on the seats and mats, round off the modifications in the interior.



The Lamborghini Gallardo Nera includes, as standard, a navigation system, rearview camera, on-board computer, alarm system, lifting system and a made-tomeasure vehicle cover. Optional equipment for the model includes the e-gear automatic transmission, an engine hood with transparent glass panels, a Bluetooth-compatible radio and carbon-ceramic brakes.

Like the Lamborghini Gallardo Coupè MY07, the Lamborghini Gallardo “Nera” has a 4,961 cc V10-cylinder engine with an output of 382 kW (520 hp). It sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in 4 seconds, and reaches a top speed of 315 km/h. The drive train of the mid-engine sports car includes permanent all-wheel drive, based on Lamborghini’s proven VT (viscous traction) system.
