2010 Lamborghini Murcielago Overview

By Cars.com Editors
Vehicle Overview
The Murcielago LP 640 is the larger of the two models offered by Lamborghini (the other is the Gallardo). Murcielagos come in coupe and roadster styles. Both the Murcielago and Gallardo have an exterior and interior personalization program called Ad Personam.

New for 2010
A new LP 670-4 SuperVeloce joins the lineup with more power, a larger rear wing, revised styling and reduced weight. Like the rest of the Murcielago lineup, it has standard all-wheel drive.

Exterior
The Murcielago has a wedge-shaped profile and features scissors-style doors hinged above the front wheel wells. Other than the steel roof and door panels, the coupe's bodywork is composed largely of carbon fiber and is built over a frame made of high-strength steel tubing. The roadster features a canvas roof.

The mirrors are mounted on long arms so the driver can see beyond the prominent rear fenders. They can be folded back electronically. A number of visible air intakes and vents help cool the engine and the brakes. Two active intakes at the rear use a Variable Airflow Cooling System that permits changes in the aperture to accommodate different driving conditions. The rear spoiler can move into three distinct positions.
  • 18-inch wheels with performance tires
  • Auto-dimming, heated mirrors
  • Bi-xenon high-intensity-discharge headlamps
  • Centered, chrome-finished exhaust
  • LP 670-4 SuperVeloce has unique front styling and a larger rear wing for added high-speed stability

Interior
Two occupants get leather-upholstered seats. The driver faces a three-spoke, leather-wrapped steering wheel. All instruments are grouped on a single, electronically controlled panel.

Ad Personam's interior offering on the Murcielago is a unique, untreated leather interior that will age and — intentionally — change color over time. An interior Carbon Package is optional.
  • Available leather or Alcantara simulated suede upholstery
  • Leather dash, headliner and door trim
  • Chrome, piano black or carbon fiber interior accents
  • Automatic climate control
  • Auto-dimming rearview mirror
  • Optional navigation system
  • Optional Alcantara headliner
  • LP 670-4 coupe has standard carbon fiber sport seats and Alcantara upholstery and headliner


Under the Hood
Lamborghini says the Murcielago can roar from zero to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds and reach a top speed beyond 205 mph. Lamborghini's six-speed manual transmission can be operated by an "E-gear" system that eliminates the clutch pedal. This gearbox delivers electrohydraulic sequential shifting. Twin paddles on the steering column yield upshifts and downshifts, while a Reverse button is mounted on the dashboard.

The Murcielago can be equipped with carbon-ceramic brakes. Weight distribution is 42 percent in the front and 58 percent at the rear. Thanks to reduced drivetrain and body weight, the LP 670-4 tips the scales roughly 220 pounds lighter than the LP 640.
  • 632-horsepower, 6.5-liter V-12 with 487 pounds-feet of torque (LP 640 coupe and roadster)
  • 661-hp, 6.5-liter V-12 with 487 pounds-feet of torque (LP 670-4 SuperVeloce coupe)
  • Standard six-speed manual transmission
  • Optional six-speed automated manual transmission with manual-shift controls
  • All-wheel drive
  • Adaptive air suspension
  • Speed-sensitive steering
  • Optional ceramic brakes


Safety
Safety features include:
  • Side-impact airbags
  • Antilock brakes with Brembo calipers
  • Traction control
  • Integrated rollover protection (on roadster)

Warranty FAQs

What is a Bumper-to-Bumper warranty?

Often called a basic warranty or new-vehicle warranty, a bumper-to-bumper policy covers components like air conditioning, audio systems, vehicle sensors, fuel systems and major electrical components. Most policies exclude regular maintenance like fluid top offs and oil changes, but a few brands have separate free-maintenance provisions, and those that do offer them is slowly rising. Bumper-to-bumper warranties typically expire faster than powertrain warranties.

What is a Powertrain warranty?

Don't be misled a 10-year or 100,000-mile powertrain warranty doesn't promise a decade of free repairs for your car. It typically covers just the engine and transmission, along with any other moving parts that lead to the wheels, like the driveshaft and constant velocity joints. Some automakers also bundle seat belts and airbags into their powertrain warranties. With a few exceptions, powertrain warranties don't cover regular maintenance like engine tuneups and tire rotations.

What is included in Roadside Assistance?

Some automakers include roadside assistance with their bumper-to-bumper or powertrain warranties, while others have separate policies. These programs cover anything from flat-tire changes and locksmith services to jump-starts and towing. Few reimburse incidental costs like motel rooms (if you have to wait for repairs).

What other services could be included in a warranty?

Some automakers include free scheduled maintenance for items such as oil changes, air filters and tire rotations. Some include consumables including brake pads and windshield wipers; others do not. They are typically for the first couple of years of ownership of a new car.

What does CPO mean?

A certified pre-owned or CPO car has been inspected to meet minimum quality standards and typically includes some type of warranty. While dealers and third parties certify cars, the gold standard is an automaker-certified vehicle that provides a factory-backed warranty, often extending the original coverage. Vehicles must be in excellent condition and have low miles and wear to be certified, which is why off-lease vehicles feed many CPO programs.
