(from
Amadou
Ndiaye) Lamborghini Toro LA 690-4
This concept is a modern
interpretation of the Lamborghini Espada from the 60s. The
goal was to think of what could have been a GT Lamborghini with
front centered engine (wish could be out in a very near future), and
to compete with other models, such as the Mercedes McLaren SLR, the
Aston Martin One 77 and the last Lexus LFA.
The design of this
concept refers to the old Lamborghini Espada, but without falling
into the neo retro style seen in recent Chevrolet Camaro and Ford
Mustang. We can indeed see references to modern Lamborghini
with sharp lines inspired stealth fighter planes.
The name LA 690-4 stands
for "Longitudinale anteriore" wish means Front Longitudinal in
English, 690 is the number of Horsepower and 4 is four wheel drive.
The Lamborghini Toro LA
690 will receive an all new V12 engine combined with a 7 speed
double clutch transmission. To reduce the weight and the fuel
consumption at the same time, the chassis, the body panel and other
parts are made from carbon fiber and magnesium. As result the
LA 690 will be around 3300 lbs. This Lamborghini also
introduce "Eco" features like the direct injection engine capable of
running on both petrol and biofuel and a cylinder "cut-out system."
The price could begin at
around 500,000 Euros, this concept could logically integrate
Lamborghini's current range which is only composed of models with
back centered engine.
