Superleggera (2007 to 2008)

Unveiled in 2007, the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera was created as a lighter, more focused interpretation of the standard Gallardo, drawing directly on Lamborghini’s motorsport philosophy and the meaning of its name, which translates to “super light.” Through extensive use of carbon fibre, weight-saving measures, and revised suspension tuning, the Superleggera delivered sharper responses and a more engaging driving experience while retaining the naturally aspirated V10 and all-wheel-drive layout that defined the Gallardo range at the time. It marked Lamborghini’s first serious push toward a track-oriented road car in the modern era, setting the template for later Superleggera, Performante, and STO models. In the Australian market, the Gallardo Superleggera is comparatively rare and highly regarded, with strong demand for original, low-kilometre examples. Values are driven by generation (early Superleggera vs later LP570-4), transmission choice, condition, mileage, and originality, with gated manual cars and well-documented examples increasingly viewed as standout modern Lamborghinis with long-term collector appeal.
