Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder
As with every Lamborghini, the Gallardo Spyder adopts the stylistic principles of
purity, athleticism and sharpness. The Spyder is not just an open-top version of
the Coupé; it continues the tradition as seen with Murciélago Coupé and Roadster,
by creating a self standing model.
The designers of the Centro Stile Lamborghini have succeeded in creating an athletic
body with a sports car’s ideal dimensions. This rear mid-engined sports car, which
measures 4.30 metres in length, 1.90 metres in width and just 1.19 metres in height,
conveys an impression of extreme power potential even when stationary. The design
language, inspired by contemporary aircraft construction, is clearly discernible.
The appearance is characterised by edges and straight surfaces. The front is defined
by the two distinctive air inlets and the large trapezoidal light units, which contain
efficient ellipsoidal-principle headlights. Like the Gallardo Coupé, the Spyder’s
far-forward cockpit with its steeply raked windscreen gives it a dynamic silhouette.
In keeping with the style of the Coupé, the Spyder’s flowing roofline mirrors the
Coupé when the soft top is closed.
