The Lamborghini Estoque (Spanish pronunciation: WP:IPA for Spanish) is a Concept car built by Lamborghini. It is a four-door Sedan (car) that was introduced at the 2008 Paris Motor Show.[1][2] The Estoque is the first front-engine vehicle by Lamborghini since the LM002 utility vehicle. Despite being classed as a concept car, the Estoque is being seriously considered for production.[3] It currently houses a 5.2 litre V10 engine, although there has been speculation that this could be replaced by a V12, V8, or possibly even a hybrid or turbo-diesel engine (as suggested by Lamborghini's Brand Director, Manfred Fitzgerald).[2]
As with other Lamborghinis, the Estoque derives its name from Spanish-style bullfighting. An Estoc is a type of sword traditionally used by Torero (bullfighter).[3]
