Lamborghini will present a new version of its Murciélago coupé at Geneva auto show. The new Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 car model name, refers to the engine position - longitudinale posteriore - and its power output of 640bhp (471kW).

The new Murcielago LP640 has new front and rear bumpers, with the tailpipes incorporated in the rear diffuser. A transparent glass engine cover is available as an extra-cost option.

The innovative four-wheel-drive system can apply the power 100% to either end, but usually gives about 70% to the rear.

About 2 000 Murciélagos have been built since the car's debut at the 2001 Frankfurt auto show.
