Lamborghini Espada Series II

The Espada Series II, also called the S2, was unveiled at the 1970 Brussels Motor Show and became the best selling version of the Lamborghini Espada, with 575 built. Outside, the main change was the deletion of the grille over the vertical glass tail panel. Inside, the dashboard, centre console and steering wheel were all new, with round gauges in a rectangular binnacle and a wood trimmed fascia across the full width. A higher 10.7:1 compression ratio lifted output to 350 PS, vented Girling discs replaced solid ones, and constant velocity joints appeared on the rear half-shafts. It stayed in production until 1972.
