Lamborghini ‘super sports car’ coming to Frankfurt

The Frankfurt Motors show will see a new Lamborghini being unveiling this time around. The Italian supercar maker is all set to debut the production version of the Lamborghini Sesto Elemento concept the company showcased at the Paris Motor show last year. The car that is set to debut though will be primarily for track use. However, the car is also hailed as the basis for the future Gallardo replacement. For now though, the new super sports car from Lamborghini will only be seen on race tracks.

Lamborghini had earlier made it clear that the Sesto Elemento concept when put into production will be a track special and hence the model that is set to debut next month would be on the lines of the official announcement made earlier. This time however, the word ‘concept’ will be dropped from its name. We will have to wait for the official word as to what the company plans for the future. The Gallardo is long due for a replacement and this is evident from the fact that it is losing ground to the Ferrari 458 Italia.

The Ferrari 458 Italia has set new benchmarks in this segment of the sports car market. The Lamborghini comes no where close to the poise and precision of the Ferrari which is hailed by aficionados as one of the greatest Ferraris ever built. The struggle for supremacy has been an ongoing affair between these two Italian heavyweights but, this time Ferrari seems to have leaped miles ahead of the raging bull from Sant’ Agata. We all know Lamborghini will bounce back and it is just a matter of time until the super car maker comes up with a suitable contender to take on the Ferrari 458 Italia.
