Icon: The Lamborghini Diablo

The Lamborghini Diablo, a car that adorned the walls in poster form of many 90’s kids.  A car that still is a show-stopper, 20 years after it ceased production.  A car that was so outrageous for it’s time (and still is), deserves a centerfold in our digital magazine.

WR TV: 2016 Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 Spyder

It’s difficult to overstate what a sales success the Huracán has been for Lamborghini. To put it in perspective, the automaker sold just over 14,000 examples of its predecessor, the Gallardo, in total – a figure that exceeded all other Lamborghini models sold in the company’s history combined. In the Gallardo’s first 16 months on sale, Lamborghini sold 1751 examples of the car. In the same amount of time, the company has sold more than 3200 Huracáns since its debut in 2014, or nearly double the amount of its historically well-received predecessor.

Preview: 2016 Lamborghini Huracán LP 580-2

Lamborghini is on their way toward a record sales year, and to say that the Huracán LP 610-4 has been a success for the Italian automaker would be a massive understatement. Compared to the debut of the Gallardo – a car that Lamborghini has sold more of than all other models in the company’s history combined – Lamborghini has sold nearly twice as many LP 610-4 models in the first 16 months it has been on sale (3169 Huracáns versus 1751 Gallardos).

Driven: 2015 Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4

The old adage that one should never meet their heroes has far-reaching implications. It suggests that the image we build up in our minds is without flaw. But as we all well know, the world we live in is an imperfect place, which means your heroes are destined to disappoint you, as reality can never compete with fiction.

WR TV: 2004 Lamborghini Gallardo

This week we’ve got the keys to the best-selling Lamborghini in the company’s history. Powered by a 5-liter V10 dishing out 493 horsepower and 376 pound-feet of torque, the “baby Lambo” could be had with either a six-speed manual gearbox or a six-speed automated manual gearbox.

Lamborghini Goes Hybrid with Asterion LPI 910-4 Plug-In Concept

At this week’s Paris Auto Show, Automobili Lamborghini unveiled their newest creation, the Asterion, which gets its name from a minotaur in Greek mythology. It’s a significant departure from Lamborghinis of the past, not only in its visual presentation but also in how it delivers its performance. The Asterion, much like the Ferrari LaFerrari and McLaren P1, nods to the inevitable mandate of electric-assisted progress with the inclusion of a plug-in electric powertrain which supplements its conventional gasoline powered engine. But rather than downplay what some might consider a compromise, Lamborghini instead chose to embrace the new tech, driving the car onto the stage with a soundtrack of nothing but camera shutters and jaws hitting the floor to usher in a new era of “silent extreme performance.”

Ten of the Greatest Designs from Marcello Gandini

Marcello Gandini is an Italian car designer born on August 26th, 1938, in Turin, the motor city of Italy. He developed a passion for cars in the early 1950s and quickly started sketching them in his free time.

Story has it Gandini’s sketches first came to life when a friend hired him to draw a new body for the OSCA 1500 Barchetta that he raced all around Italy. The stunning body that Gandini drew was later built by an experienced panel beater and bolted to the Barchetta’s chassis.

Overview: 2015 Lamborghini Huracan LP 610-4

Over the course of nearly a decade of production, Lamborghini has built more than 14,000 Gallardos of various configurations, making it the most successful model in the manufacture’s history. Nicknamed the “baby Lambo”, the Gallardo shared the limelight initially with its bigger brother, the Murciélago, and more recently with the Murciélago’s successor, the Aventador, as Lamborghini’s volume sales models. Clearly, any successor to the Gallardo’s throne has big shoes to fill. But the Huracan, which Lamborghini unveiled today ahead of its debut at the 2014 Geneva Auto Show, looks to be up to the task.

Is This The New Lamborghini Cabrera?

Set to debut for the 2015 model year, the successor to the Lamborghini Gallardo has been given the rendering treatment by Autoweek.nl illustrator Marco van Overbeeke. Judging by these illustrations, it would appear that the Cabrera is sizing up to be quite a worthy replacement to the baby Lambo indeed.
