Ferrari has a 605 hp version of the 458, McLaren has pushed the MP4-12C past 600 hp with the 2013 update and Porsche's 911 GT3 keeps up on the track thanks to all-wheel steering and a 475 hp little boxer engine.
Performance really is in the air. So where is Lamborghini in all this? They've never been good at track cars, but make no mistake, that's about to change.
Unlike Lambos of old which were predominantly developed in Italy, the next V10 supercar they'll make is being put through its paces at the Nurburgring. It's suggested that it will have 600 horsepower and a twin-clutch gearbox, but the numbers just won't explain what you see in this video. It's stiff, light. Electronics are clearly helping it grip with better stability than the current model.
Why does the new Lambo have so much off the track to itself? Is it trying to set a record?
