Roof -

The roof raising/lowering system of the Gallardo Spyder is based on an electronic control system with electrohydraulic actuators and comprises the following elements:

hood made from black fabric

electronic control system, integrated in the car CAN-BUS network, that controls the movement of the roof

electric pump

engine bonnet (that also functions as a hood cover) made from carbon fibre

six hydraulic cylinders (four to operate the hood and two to operate the bonnet)

two electric actuators (one to lock the catch at the front of the roof and one to release the bonnet catch)

electric motor to raise and lower the rear window

The roof raising/lowering mechanism is extremely simple to operate by way of two push-buttons on the centre of the dashboard. And the whole operation takes just over 20 seconds.

The rear screen moves automatically while the roof is being opened or closed. This automatically-controlled movement always returns the screen to the raised position. The driver can also choose to have the screen in the lowered position (also with the roof raised) by pressing the appropriate button on the dashboard.

There is also a "service function" that positions the roof so as to allow access to the engine.

fyi...
