JournoMotorTainment: Lamborghini Estoque Concept

The beauty of concept cars is visible when manufacturers go beyond their usual design, that mostly consist of making changes to the previous design and selling it as a successor. Lamborghini`s Estoque concept is a merger between a super car and sedan, taking the manufacturer beyond its usual supercar designs.

Bringing in a sedan feel in the concept doesn’t give the Lamborghini sedan performance figures as the Estoque has a power rating of 560bhp, which in South African measurements we are looking at about 418kW. All the power comes from a 5.2L V10 engine that is currently used in the Gallardo LP 560-4 which goes from 0-100 km/h in 4 seconds while reaching a top speed of 325km/h.

Being a merger between a Supercar and sedan interior features are not as you would expect in supercars, the concept also has a touch of luxury and elegance that isn’t cramped up thanks to an extended wheel base. A navigation system, LCD Monitors and a CD player are some of the features you will find in the Estoque.

The front end of the concept looks lambo like while the rear end is something you haven’t seen come out of the Italian manufacturer`s manufacturing plants. An overall edgy design is enhanced by 22 inc rims and 23inches at the back, while there`s no need for sunset to see the daytime running LED that fit in well with the shape of its lights.

The Estoque concept brings in a fresh design that one would least expect from the manufacturer, its the next fresh car that could be parked amongst the likes of the Ferrari FF, Aston Martin Rapid and Porshe Panamera.
