Lamborghini Gallardo was first introduced in the event the Geneva Motor Show 2003. And when it became one of the center of attention among sports cars are ready for production. The visitors also wanted to answer the curiosity, whether fruit acquisition of Lamborghini Audi will produce a product like a variant of the legendary car bearing the "Buffalo Wild" other. Curious?
Few speak of history, Ferrucio Lamborghini as "father" Lamborghini was born in the shade of the Taurus zodiac. Not a car accident when his creations using the symbol 'bull'. With strong characters and nimble so that inspired some of the Lamborghini models, using the name of the bull with complaints, one of Miura. As a form of respect for Ferrucio, the management of the Lamborghini name newest model, Gallardo, supposedly the name, the descendants of bison complaint.
High Stability
The appeal of the first project at Audi and Lamborghini radiated lineages cars are born from Lamborghini. Chronology of Italdesign-Giugiaro's work line which implies Countach Gallardo and Murcielago in themselves, but packed more compactly. The overall design of the Gallardo tried to show a synthesis between a sports sedan with the character. The goal was none other, to maximize the skills to dikendaraai in diverse driving needs. Location of engine in the rear as the main character of a sports car. While the impression sedannya, more on that machine settings can be adjusted to the condition of the road. Want to be like a sports car, or soft in the city was no problem.
Gallardo project has been started since 2000. Even if the body is shorter, but still made wheelbase length. Car length 4.3 m, 2560 mm wheelbase quite long. Compare with the average car has a long wheelbase of 2 m only. Length, the Gallardo guaranteed stability.
The calculation of aerodynamics of course very concerned, to achieve a small wind resistance, so do not make it float. For best results, every detail of the shape and curve of the exterior is really observed. As with any form of even a small mirror still requires special calculations. Because, no matter how small its shape when the blocking rate of the wind on the overall design, can create barriers to the emergence of turbulence flow. Turbulence effects can also occur from the form of other components, including the water scoop located on the side of the car. In order to accelerate the rate of wind, the curved shape made the car side and directly connects to the water scoop.
Sitting fall
Black bandage to make the cockpit seem sporty but still there is the element of elegance. Coupled with the selection of leather neatly sewn with thread color to the exterior. The black color of the seats began to dominate the cockpit door trim, ceilings, and floors. As a sports car, it is normal that a sitting position to a pair of his chair like he was selonjor. The seat can be adjusted as needed electrically. Instrumentation relatively simple but functional, because the only important indicators that need attention.
In the cab driving conditions could no doubt about it. Sitting position tends to fall down. Front end was no longer visible. So much needed feeling great to drive this car. Of course feelings of fear must be removed when in heavy traffic, because motorists can not monitor for certain vehicles in the vicinity.
V-10, Quattro
Do not ever doubt the Bull Young tramp. In accordance with ancestral blood flow, the Gallardo is also equipped with powerful engine. Audi has a big role in this. And not just the engine, transmission drive and also the results of research conducted by the German manufacturer. Just so you know, the Gallardo has the same engine with the vehicle version of Audi Sport, S6 and S8. Configuration with a capacity of 5000 cc V-10 DOHC 90 º, staff issued reached 500 tk and 510 Nm of torque.
Parties Lambo and Audi said, before the machine is installed, there are other engine options that can be used. The capacity is still the same, but the magnitude different degree V engine configuration. Angle alternative engine has size 72 º. However, based on calculations, the angle of 72 º just affect big minus. Starting from the eating place rather than an angle of 90 º, because his position became higher. Altitude is also influential in the center of gravity car. In addition, the car body would be higher and affect overall aerodynamic system.
For propulsion systems, adopting Gallardo AWD technology named Audi's famous Quattro. While the automatic transmission system can be operated via the shift pedals behind the steering wheel.
On the Road Performance
The desire to accelerate to maximum speed is mengebu. When mobilmotor testing at the Sentul International Circuit. First seat position is set, for maximum visibility mandapatkan and comfortable as possible. For those of you who are unfamiliar, if the height is less than 170 cm in a sitting position looks low and foresight to be somewhat disturbed by the dashboard and bonnet. We put the foot to the pedal, feels cramped leg room prior to the spring that disrupted the inner wheel houses.
Do not doubt the acceleration of the Gallardo, feels solid strength in every round. When tested the speed of 000-100 km / h can be temput in 6.4 seconds and to a distance of 402 yards to within 14.1 seconds with a speed of 177 km / hour. It should speed could be reached more quickly, unfortunately somewhat disturbed by a less smooth gearshift. Note, if you are late shifting gears, the Gallardo is equipped transmission with automatic shift up so that there will be cut off and the speed will be captured. And when the shift down, the trend held up as the rpm hill and toe.
The movement of the suspension feels hard so make the car as they travel over the uneven road more bumpy. It is very unpleasant to walk like this. It should ideally go to the main matter of convenience in a sports car. Beyond the above circumstances, stability when driving fast and cornering is very satisfying. There are no sharp corners to conquer fear even for very minimal body roll. Stability is also influenced by the width Lambo. (Ariel)
