Lamborghini Gallardo Sales Figures

Lamborghini Gallardo

The Lamborghini Gallardo was replaced in 2014 by the Lamborghini Huracan.

By official accounts, the Gallardo is the successor of the mostly forgettable Lamborghini Jalpa which was produced from 1981 to 1988. However, they share practically nothing in common; a 15-year gap between the two cars making the case for a natural progression, an untenable one in any case. This would prove to be a good thing for the Gallardo, as it would go on to become Lamborghini’s best-selling model of all time, with 14,022 examples produced during its lifecycle.

Named after a renown breed of fighting bulls, the Lamborghini Gallardo was first unveiled at the 2003 Geneva Auto Show, to plenty of fanfare and attention. Touted as an “everyday supercar”, the Gallardo became the marque’s entry-level offering as well, slotting under the Lamborghini Murciélago in the model lineup.

Featuring a long wheel-base and a competent V10 engine, the Gallardo was capable of delivering blistering performance with superb ride quality and handling characteristics. Uncompromising engineering standards and an obsessive attention-to-detail made for a car that was as enjoyable to drive on the city streets as it was at the race track – or as comfortable going to the grocery store as it was hitting its top speed of over 300 km/h.
