Lamborghini->ke44 and Zagato->ke3827 have a long history of working together, having collaborated on a handful of past one-off models, including the first Zagato-bodied Lamborghini, the 3500 GTZ. From it, a 50-year relationship was born and has culminated in the latest collaboration: the Lamborghini 5-95 Zagato.

Based on the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4->ke375, considered as the best-selling Lamborghini in history, the 5-95 Zagato is essentially a new aesthetic look of the Gallardo LP570-4, designed by Zagato to evoke an instant classic look that shows the purest expression of Zagato's unique coach-building skills. One look at it and you can immediately tell the noticeable differences between what a Gallardo looks like and what Zagato did to the 5-95.

Unfortunately, the supercar's->ke177 look is as far as the changes are concerned. Under its hood - and pretty much all mechanical functions - is still purely Lamborghini. What that means is you still get a 5.2-liter V-10 engine that produces 570 horsepower and 398 pound-feet of torque.

It would've been nice to have seen a little performance bump but we're not complaining on how the entire collaboration came about. That's one nice looking Zagato-commissioned Lamborghini 5-95, if we do say so ourselves.

Lamborghini 5-95 By Zagato in detail

One of the most prominent design characteristics of the 5-95 Zagato is the completely reworked front section, specifically the round front fender that eliminated the two air intakes the Gallardo had. The intakes are still there, but in a different configuration than what we're used to. Likewise, the integrated headlights draw similarities from the Gallardo, except that the 5-95 does look like it has a more elaborate lighting set-up.

A floating spoiler on the front section is also a new addition, something Zagato described as taking inspiration from another Zagato-built Lamborghini we saw back in 2009: the Raptor.

Notice also those side intakes, which normally are bigger than what they are now. Zagato reduced those intakes by adding an air scoop on the roof to help in the cooling chores to the intake manifold.

The rear section of the 5-95 Zagato is a complete departure from the design of the Gallardo, and it's not just those round taillights that looks completely out of place on a Lamborghini.

On the flip side, there are various elements to the rear that really stands out, particularly the use of a truncated tail to emphasize how front-focused depth of the car's design. It's a subtle design cue that changes the supercar's stance, making it more agile and athletic than it probably otherwise would have been.
