When someone says "supercar," what image jumps to mind? More often than not, it's a Lamborghini and that legacy appears to be safe from pretenders as our spy photographers have captured what is believed to be the first images of the long-awaited Murcielago successor.
Rumored to be called "Jota," the new top-shelf Lambo will be the company's first all-new car since the departure of head designer Luc Donckerwolke and succession of Manfred Fitzgerald, best known for his work on the Estoque concept and the Reventon. This car has been captured for the first time winter testing at the Volkswagen Auto Group's secret test facility in northern Scandinavia and offers an early preview of the next big-banger Lambo.
There is no mistaking this car for anything but a Lamborghini. While Fitzgerald may take the design in a new direction, he's been careful not to stray far from the silhouette that made Lamborghini famous, one that harkens back not only to the Murcielago but to the Diablo and Countach before it. In fact, Lamborghini aficionados will note that the nose of this prototype bears a striking resemblance to the Murcielago with its massive air intakes, slim headlights and cab-forward design.
