A rear wheel drive version of the all wheel drive LP640, the Lamborghini Murcielago SV. Powered by the Lamborghini V12 behind the seats, the SV may put out 680 horsepower. This new Lamborghini is expected to be 220 pounds less than the usual Murcielago.

There will be a new fixed rear wing, probably for either to help with take offs or to stabilize the SV at high speeds. The Lamborghini Murcielago SV is the first in a string of new Lambo models. You can probably expect to see the SV to debut in the Paris Motor Show.
