Lamborghini Gallardo hits 592bhp

This tuned version of Lamborghini's Gallardo supercar has 592bhp, that's 40bhp more than the standard model. The Gallardo LP600/4 is fitted with the usual 5.2-litre V10 but it's been fettled by the specialists at Edo Competition, boosting performance to 0-62mph in 3.5 seconds and increasing the top speed to 211mph.

Other revisions over the standard Gallardo include upgraded suspension, modified and adjustable dampers and 19-inch racing wheels. The LP600/4 also gets a 12kg lighter exhaust system with modified valves to increase noise and power.

No details on prices or availability have been released yet, but the LP600/4 will definitely carry a heftier price tag than the LP560/4's £140,300.
