Lamborghini's V12 Jota

Written By RajaBlog on Thursday, March 10, 2011 | 12:47 AM


As the end of the line draws near for Lamborghini's top-of-the-line Murcielago, speculation abounds about what its replacement, the Jota, will offer.

It'll be a sad day when Lamborghini rolls its last Murcielago out of the factory in Sant'Agata in Italy. But the smiles won't be gone for long if its replacement - the new Lamborghini Jota - looks this good.

Scheduled to debut at the Paris motor show in October, the Jota is likely to carry over some of the design elements of both the Lamborghini Reventon and the four-door Estoque.

As Drive's exclusive image rendering shows, the appearance of the Jota will likely be dominated by sharp body lines and gaping air intakes, and some other neat features include all-LED headlights and shorter overhangs front and rear for an even more purposeful stance.

The Jota will make use of lightweight carbon-fibre body panelling, as well as some aluminium components, most likely the doors and roof.

The current Lamborghini Murcielago is far from dainty (weighing in at 1650kg), but there are whispers that the new Jota's kerb weight will drop substantially (potentially as much as 150kg), thanks in part to its lighter shell, but also due to Lamborghini switching to an aluminium space frame - the same space frame as is used in Audi's R8 supercar.

Details leaking from Italy suggest the new Lamborghini is set to be powered by a new direct injection 7.0-litre V12 engine pumping out a massive 525kW and 700Nm of torque - replacing the Murcielago's 6.5-litre, 471kW/660Nm unit - and it is reportedly going to be able to sprint from 0-100km/h in just three seconds, while the Jota's top speed is said to be higher than 360km/h.
