Not to be outdone by its new family member, Lamborghini rolled out yet another version of its Gallardo coupe at tonight's Volkswagen group extravaganza. The Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera is just what the study implies — a slightly more powerful and lighter version of the standard LP 560-4.

And we do mean slightly. Peak power of the 5.2-liter V10 tops out at 562 horses while torque flattens out at 398 pound feet. The power runs through an six-speed e-gear automated manual to all four wheels with a viscous center diff and limited slip rear diff handling the distribution.

For the "superleggera" part of the equation, Lamborghini shaved a few pounds by using polycarbonate windows for the side windows, rear backlight and engine cover. Several of the exterior body panels – rear diffuser, side sills, rear spoiler — were switched to carbon fiber construction to save additional weight. All in all, the changes save 154 pounds which brings the LP 570-4's curb weight to just 2,954 pounds. 

Lamborghini says this new Gallardo will go from 0-to-60 mph in just 3.4 seconds and continue on to a top speed of 202 mph.
