2009 Geneva Motor Show: Lamborghini Murcielago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce Official Release

Lamborghini Murcielago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce

Automobili Lamborghini has done it again. The hits just keep coming and coming. The new Lamborghini Murcielago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce is top of class. The LP 670-4 SV is more powerful, lighter and faster than the LP-640, which is spectacular in its own right. This new iteration of the Murc line has a 6.5-liter V12 capable of 670 hp and 487 lb-ft of torque. The 30 hp increase in engine output comes from tweaked valve timing for better optimization and a new intake system. 0-62 mph takes a mere 3.2 seconds. The Superveloce comes with a sequential, automated manual transmission, code named e-gear, that shifts super fast using electro-hydraulics.

Top speed is rated at 212 mph with the standard small rear spoiler. An optional "Aeropack Wing" that is much larger provides additional downforce for better handling but the additional drag makes the car 3 mph slower. I know, a real bummer.
