Lamborghini once envisioned to create a super sedan with a 5.2-liter nat-asp V10 under its hood.
-
Called the Estoque, and it made its first appearance at the 2008 Paris Motor Show
-
Unfortunately, the Estoque couldn't make it to production, mainly because of the evolving popularity of SUVs
-
Lamborghini is going the hybrid route. First with the Revuelto, then came the Urus SE and the Temerario
-
However, the Lanzador concept, which made its debut in 2023, marks Lamborghini's venture into the EV space
-
While the Lanzador isn't making it to production yet, there's a fine chance of the Estoque nameplate to emerge as an EV in the future
-
Now, the Estoque's revival I'm talking about could happen with the help of Porsche, especially the Taycan
-
Platform sharing is very common within the VW Group and Lamborghini's own Urus SUV is a great example. It shares its underpinnings with the Audi Q8. VW Touareg, and the Bentley Bentayga
-
So, it's possible for Lamborghini to use the Taycan's J1 platform, which was co-developed with Audi that also carries the e-tron GT
-
Like all Lambos, the Estoque EV should have enough grunt to snap your neck
-
I'm thinking of the Taycan Turbo GT's setup would be just the right fit
-
It's 1092 hp and 988 lb-ft of torque should be enough for the Estoque EV, should it become reality
-
Interestingly, someone spotted a Hyundai Ioniq 5 N outside Lamborghini's factory in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy.
-
Could the Italian automaker use this electric crossover to take inspiration for some bits of its upcoming EV?
