Some impressive stats there. Looks good to me, clearly some styling cues from other manufacturers in the design though.

I don't think I've ever not liked a Lamborghini. A sad day because that lacks all the visual clout a true Lamborghini should have.

Reminds me of an Evora, particularly the roof line.

If you stuck a Lotus badge on that no one would be surprised by that design. For a 910bhp Lamborghini that doesn't cut it.

Well next to the la Ferrari, P1 and 918 it's just ordinary considering its a Lambo!

First Lamborghini that I have vaguely liked the appearance of for many years, probably since the 60s. The newer ones just seem to be a comical characterisation of themselves.

OMG! What a shocker!

What is going on at Lamborghini? The Vaneno? The Egoista? And now this?

Looking for any positives? At least you couldn't buy the Egoista! The hybrid technology is here to stay. Why couldnt they just freshened up the Estoque? I realise the Estoque is front engined and not mid-engined, buts okay?

Lamborghini Central stilo get your act together, pronto!

Gutted.

Another concept which hopefully will remain just a concept. Must try harder.

Actually full on love this thing...

I genuinely thought I'd hate it - it isn't, in my opinion what a Lambo should be, but it looks awesome....probably the best looking GT car I've seen in a while.

Could be awesome if they make something like it; although it's Lamborghini, so would they ever make a GT car? Do they really need too? The hybrid tech is pretty impressive and promising though biggrin

As soon as I saw it I thought of this;



I was hoping for a low slung elongated Coupe in the mould of a modern Espada not a modern day Pantera!
Lambo's history isn't just crazy supercars, they have made some discreet GTs and junior supercars in the past, it's time they made something becoming of a gentleman rather than the usual playboy fodder.

Looks Beautiful, modern update of a classic design I can see that appealing to the GT enthusiasts.

Like the colour too smile

A low enough BiK coefficient to be run as a company car, depending on your other options for drawing personal income from one's (what would need to be large) firm?
