This 1st Super Light version differs from the ‘ordinary’ Gallardo in that it features a series of carbon elements, including the imposing fixed spoiler (optional) fitted behind the Plexiglas window covering the engine. The use of carbon is not confined to the visible elements (rear-view mirrors, door panels, spoiler), but also extends to the rear diffuser and the car’s virtually flat floor. Carbon is also king in the cabin. Depending on the options, it can be found on the centre console or in the alcantara-covered monocoque bucket seats. The quest for weight savings goes even further, since in addition to the absence of a multimedia unit (available on request), the door handles have been replaced by simple little leather straps. The Superleggera is to Lamborghini what the GT3 is to Porsche.
