Joined at the hip in a V-10 family, the new Audi S8 and latest Lamborghini Gallardo check each other out and learn to love one another for their differences. In’t that sweet?
Does the person shopping for a Lamborghini Gallardo actually pause for a moment in front of the Audi S8 and think twice about which to get? Statistics show that the answer is sometimes yes. And oftentimes these folks just go ahead and buy both. Embrace your envy.
They appear so different, but they share a bunch. If nothing else, they’ve each got their own version of a deliriously high-output, 90-degree V-10 engine spearheaded by Audi in Ingolstadt, Germany. The first use of this implant was the “07L” 5.0-liter version in the original Gallardo in 2003 that gave off 493 horsepower (SAE-rated) at 7800 rpm and 376 pound-feet of torque at 4500 rpm (80 percent available at just 1500 rpm). At the end of 2005, looking for more of a foot-up on the Ferrari F430 and the BMW M5 and M6, the Gallardo 07L was bumped to its current 512 horsepower at 8000 rpm and it now gets to 60 miles per hour in just four seconds flat—sub-four in a hot hand.
