Spied: Lamborghini Cabrera Sheds Plastic Molds to Show Body

Here's our first look at the Lamborghini's next supercar that will replace the Gallardo, tipped to be called the Cabrera, without the obstructing / annoying black plastic moldings of the previous prototypes.

Seen here parked next to an Audi sedan at a gas station in Europe, the new Lamborghini's supercar proportions and especially its low height and wide body become instantly clear, while the absence of the trick moldings allow us to view its wedge-shape and some of the Aventador-like details such as the headlamp clusters.

Sharing its underpinning with the next iteration of the Audi R8, the Gallardo's replacement will draw its power from an evolved version of the current naturally aspirated V10 engine with around 600-horses connected to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, driving either the rear or all-four wheels.

Lamborghini Cabrera Rendering Looks Spot On – Plus, Spy Video

The Lamborghini Gallardo replacement, strongly believed to be called Cabrera, is slowly taking shape in our minds. Set to be revealed at some point in 2014, its look is not really a secret to anybody, if you piece together the spyshots, different available renderings, as well as the current design language adopted by the Audi-owned Italian manufacturer.

The rendered interpretation you see here, brought to you courtesy of Wild-Speed, looks very close to what we think it will look like in production form. It features the visible front intakes shape, believable headlights, side intakes matching what we see in the spyshots, and equally believable rear clusters.

The overall shape seems spot on too, and the designer even ponders the addition of active rear aero, making two different interpretations of the rear – with or without a small spoiler.

Now scroll down, check it out and have your say in the comments section that follows the gallery you’ll find below.

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4: Live Shots from Geneva

There's no doubt that the new Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 is the worst kept secret of the 81st Geneva International Motor Show. In addition to a bevy of studio shots that were leaked online in the past few days, we now have live shots of the Murcielago's replacement from Geneva, courtesy of the folks over at Autogespot.
"We have just received from a friend a few exclusive photos of the new LP700-4. It is the Grigio Estoque colorded Aventador that will be shown on the press day on the 1st of March," Emil from Autogespot told us. And well, there you have it: the new Aventador. We'll have all the juicy details in a couple of days when Lamborghini officially debuts its new flagship model at the Geneva show, but scroll down for the condensed version.

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 Photo Leak Part XLVIII

We've seen more leaks on the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 than on a rusty pipe of late, so we're hardly surprised that a new set of images surfaced online today. The three fresh pictures show the Raging Bull's engine bay with the brand-new 700-horsepower 6.5-liter V12 unit, the supercar's interior and the sculptured fuel cap. Unless someone spills the beans later today or during the weekend, you'll have to wait until Monday for the full reveal at the Geneva Motor Show.

Lambo Bull [Insert 'S' Word Here] Continues with Full Release of Photos

The farce of the "leaked" Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 photos continues to play on. Following the appearance of a scanned image from the Croatian edition of Evo Magazine on Wednesday, earlier today Jalopnik released a single photo only to be snarked back by Autoblog that posted a higher resolution version claiming that it knew where the photo came from but was sworn to obsessively cover the auto industry secrecy until Monday.
In the third -but certainly not final- act of the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 play, Jalopnik has published two more pictures, luckily for our browsers, on its Facebook page. You can check the trio of photos by clicking this link that will forward you directly to the Facebook gallery.

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 Leaks Continue with New Photo

Pictures of the new Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 are floating right and left lately, with the most recent one coming from Jalopnik. The new photo reveals the Italian supercar's profile that brings to mind both the Murcielago and the edgier-shaped Reventon. If you're wondering about how the rest of the car looks like, you might have to wait until its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show on March 1, however, given the way things are going, we wouldn't be surprised if we got an early unveil within the next couple of days. In the meantime, follow the break to check out the complete gallery of photos that we have of the V12-powered Lambo.

Is this the First Official Photo of the New Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4?

Only a few hours after Lamborghini published some new photos its Murcielago replacement showing off the supercar's carbon fiber chassis and other components, and a scanned image allegedly from an upcoming issue of the Croatian edition of EVO Magazine fell into the hands of Worldcarfans. The picture of the red-colored Aventador LP700-4 appears to be real, though one can never be sure with these things.
In any case, it won't be long before we get a full disclosure on Sant'Agata's new raging bull model, which is scheduled to receive its first public outing at the upcoming Geneva Salon.
The basic numbers you need to know is that the LP700-4 will be a whopping 230kg (507 lbs) lighter than a Murcielago LP640-4 coupe at 1.575 kg (3.472 lbs) and have 60 more ponies from its brand new 6.5-liter V12 engine that delivers 700HP at 8,250 rpm and a maximum torque of 690 Nm (479.4 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm for a 0-100 km/h (62 mph) sprint time of 2.9 seconds and a top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph).

Lamborghini LP700-4: Two-Minute Long Video Looks Completely Official

With the Geneva show just around the corner, it seems that Lamborghini has secretly released a new video of its Murcielago supercar replacement, which is expected to be called Aventador or Jota LP700-4 and will bow at the Geneva Salon next March. Although we didn’t find any official information on the footage, the quality of the clip and the fact that it contains interior shots gives it a distinctly legitimate aura.
The 700-horsepower supercar is still camouflaged, but it’s evident that it has sharper edges and sleeker lines, while new features are also revealed, includings the shape of the rear view mirrors, steering wheel and center console, richly clad in what appears to be aluminum or chromed trim. Enjoy the video right after the break.

AutoLeaks: Lamborghini LP700 Murcielago Successor Dealer Order Guide Reveals Specs

*Update: Lamborghini via its VW Group parent company requested the removal of the photographic material from the leaked brochure. For those of you that missed out, simply Google the words "Lamborghini Order Guide"

This has been a good week for Lamborghini fans. After we saw a lightly camouflaged prototype of the Murcielago’s successor a couple of days ago, the official dealer order guide of the upcoming Italian supercar made its way onto the internet via the Teamspeed forums.

New Photos of the Lamborghini Murcielago Replacement Surface on Facebook

Late yesterday afternoon, photos of the Lamborghini Murcielago replacement surfaced on Facebook and were thought to be new spy shots of the upcoming Italian supercar. Eventually, word got out that the pictures were taken at an official Lamborghini event, attended by a few lucky journalists.
Unlike the real spy photos we published in October, the camouflage on this prototype is just a thin layer of tape. As well as revealing the orange paintwork, the lesser cameo also unveils many design cues. The new range-topping Lambo’s shape has been clearly inspired by the limited edition Reventon.

2012 Lamborghini Jota / Murcielago: New Spy Photos and Video

We've got another round of spy pictures as well a video of Lamborghini's upcoming Murcielago replacement. Sant'Agata's new hypercar, which has yet to be given an official name (although some sources suggest it will be called Jota), is planned to debut at next year's Geneva Salon.

From what we can tell by looking at the scoop photos and videos, Lamborghini's design team will stick to the 'wedgy' styling language that has been a hallmark of the firm's supercars ever since the introduction of the Countach in the 1970s.

The new hypercar will be the Italian company's first production model to make use of the lightweight carbon fiber materials showcased on the Paris Motor Show Sesto Elemento concept model. Sources claim the baddest Lambo in the range may be as much as 150kg or 330 pounds lighter than today's Murcielago.

VIDEO: 2012 Lamborghini Jota / Murcielago Spied Screaming Around the Nurburgring

Earlier this week, we showed you a batch of spy photos of next year's Lamborghini Murcielago replacement that may or may not be called Jota, as some sources suggest. Today, we bring you one of the first videos of a prototype model being driven on and around the hallowed Nordschleife race track - and yes, that's a Porsche 911 taking a shot at it from behind.

Lamborghini's Geneva-bound Murcielago Successor Spied

Here are some spy pics of the Murcielago's lighter successor getting ready to do some track time at the Nürburgring. Whether or not it'll be called the Jota is yet to be properly established, but it won't be long before we find out as the new majority-composite Lambo flagship is pegged to make its world debut at next year's Geneva Salon.

SPY VIDEO: Lamborghini Testing Spider Version of RWD Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni

Looks like Lamborghini is working on the development of a topless version of its limited-run Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni special, which was named after the Italian company's most renowned test driver. The test mule was spied testing in and around the famous Nürburgring race track.

As with the coupe model, the Gallardo Spyder LP550-2 Valentino Balboni will ditch the standard Gallardo's four-wheel drive system for a lighter rear-wheel drive configuration, with power coming from a 5.2-liter V10 engine pushing out 550HP and 398 lb-ft of torque at 6500 rpm, hooked up to either a manual gearbox or an e-gear automated transmission with column-mounted shift paddles.
