Lamborghini Espada 400 GTE

The Lamborghini Espada 400 GTE is the second series of the four-seat Espada, which the Polish article says debuted at the Brussels show in 1970 after production began in November 1969. The body and construction were unchanged, so the first and second series look identical at a glance, with new rear lights appearing only late in production. The changes were inside: a classic-shaped instrument panel replaced the plastic one, leather and wood dominate, and the weak ventilation of the early car was fixed with new intakes, including some for rear passengers. Air conditioning and power steering could be ordered, and a richer VIP version had a television, a bar and more comfortable seats. A higher compression ratio raised output to 257.5 kilowatts (350 PS), weight rose to 1,635 kilograms, ventilated discs went on all wheels and 575 cars were sold in two years.
