The unidentified driver escaped unhurt in the incident, though most of the Italian luxury car was destroyed.
The incident occurred around 9 am under the Badarpur flyover. The police have towed away the vehicle to probe how the Rs 2.5 crore vehicle caught fire.
Lamborghini Gallardo, which was discontinued in 2013, comes with a 5.5 litre V10 rear engine.
The Hindustan Times said a leakage in the oil tank of the car, which was on its way back from a service centre, was the cause of the fire.
