Lamborghini Diablo Roadster

The Lamborghini Diablo Roadster designed by Marcello Gandini.

Vehicle Overview

The Lamborghini Diablo Roadster was introduced in December 1995 and featured an electronically operated carbon fibre targa top which was stored above the engine lid when not in use. Besides the roof, the roadster’s body was altered from the fixed-top VT model in a number of ways. The front bumper was revised, replacing the quad rectangular driving lamps with two rectangular and two round units. The brake cooling ducts were moved inboard of the driving lamps and changed to a straked design, while the rear ducts featured the vertical painted design seen on the SE30. The engine lid was changed substantially in order to vent properly when the roof panel was covering it. The roadster, designed by Marcello Gandini, also featured revised 17 inch wheels. The air intakes on top/sides were made larger than the Diablo coupé. In 1998, the wheels were updated to 18 inches, and the engine power raised to 530 hp (395 kW; 537 PS) by adding the variable valve timing system. Top speed was also raised to 335 km/h (208 mph)
