The Lamborghini Gallardo (/gal'la?do/) is a sports car built by Lamborghini. The Gallardo is Lamborghini's most-produced model to date, with 5,000 built in the first three years of production.[1] It is less expensive than Lamborghini's larger, more powerful Murci?lago.
The car is named after a famous breed of fighting bull. The Spanish word gallardo (/ga'?a??o/) translates into "gallant".
