Why is Lambo making the new Espirit??
Bit let down by this - was expecting flamboyance set to 11 by Lambo ....this looks a bit 'safe'.
It's interesting as I was disappointed with the Gallardo in particular for missing 'old school' Lamborghini madness and I thought even the Murcielago had played safe, so I should hate this.Bit let down by this - was expecting flamboyance set to 11 by Lambo ....this looks a bit 'safe'.
However, I think it looks awesome and I think it will appeal to a whole new market, taking a bite out of Ferrari and co. from a different angle..
We are a fickle bunch
I really like it, it would appear that a small electrical powertrain is the future of N/A supercars. I was wondering where Lamborghini could go from the 700hp the 6.5 litre Aventador puts out, surely naturally aspirated engines are just about optimized now.
I read the 910 figure and wondered how they managed that, it seems like a perfect solution to continue to increase power outputs. Hopefully the technology will develop to become more efficient, cheaper and ligher.

Is anyone thinking a certain recently released Jaguar from the rear quarter? This is a very good thing, although overall not quite as distinctive Lambo as the last few models. I do think Lamborghini produce some of the most commanding cars for road presence, and the Aventador will never be matched in this respect.
Lovely looking thing and a nice addition to balance out their range. Shades of classic GTs past and for me could be a modern De Tomaso all but for the badge.
I'll have mine in candy apple red with tan leather please!
(Edit to add that I've been beaten to the De Tomaso reference above!)

Just breathtaking. The first really beautiful Lamborghini in ages. Not that there's anything wrong with the insanely dramatic other models but a good reminder that Lamborghini's design history includes some of the most beautiful GTs in history. Personally, I'm in serious lust but luckily can't even begin to afford it if it hits production.

100% this ^^^ And I agree with the Miura comments too. It's beautiful.From pointless and utterly bonkers last year, to practical in Lambo's world, with a trully beautiful car.
The only downside being that lambo takes another step towards being a badge with VW behind it. There is no way Lambo would have been allowed to develop this seperately, it is not logical or efficient and something had to happen to those unsold 918's.
No mucking around with a 6 month Marketing Campaign either, just turn up, stick an Italina Stallion in front and show it, great.
