Lamborghini and Blancpain, the world’s oldest luxury watchmaker, have combined their expertise in technology and design to create the Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Blancpain Edition, “putting the power of the world’s fastest mono-marque race series into a road-legal vehicle”.
The car is characterised by the mighty rear spoiler and an engine cover optimised for ventilation – both features derived from the race cars of the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo series. Meanwhile, the extensive use of carbonfibre both inside and out keeps weight down to 1340kg, giving the 570HP car an outstanding power-to-weight ratio – and a 0-62mph time of 3.4 seconds.
