It's no secret that
Lamborghini is working hard to get its
Murcielago replacement, the
Jota, out the door. We've
already caught sight of heavily camouflaged prototypes in testing, and it appears that the highly anticipated supercar is on the move again, this time on public roads.
When the Jota launches in 2011, it will have some relatively big shoes to fill, but Lamborghini is definitely prepared to do battle with the next generation of supercars. The Jota will be lighter, more powerful and more high-tech than the outgoing Murcielago - curb weight is estimated to be around 3,300 pounds, and a new 7.0-liter V12 is in the works, rumored to produce over 700 horsepower and 520 pound-feet of torque. Seven-speed transmissions, in both automated manual and sequential styles will be on hand, helping the Jota storm to 60 mph in just three seconds, on its way up to a top speed of 220 mph.
When will we see the production-ready Jota? Mum's the word on that one, but don't be surprised if it makes an early appearance at the
Paris Motor Show later this year, with the first sales being made in mid-2011.
