Lamborghini Espada

Automobiles

The Lamborghini Espada was a four-seat grand touring coupe built by Lamborghini between 1968 and 1978. Marcello Gandini of Bertone drew it, taking cues from his Marzal and Pirana show cars, and it was launched at the 1968 Geneva show alongside the Islero as the more daring of the two. A front-mounted 3,929 cc V12 gave 325 PS in the first series and 350 PS in the second and third, which differed mainly in interior, wheels and trim. Espada is Spanish for sword, the weapon of the bullfighter. With 1,217 built it was the most numerous and longest-running Lamborghini until Countach production grew in the mid-1980s.
