After today's news reports, Lamborghini felt the need to drop a quick press release making it clear they're not yet clear on whether to produce the four-door Estoque. Thanks, now it's much more clear. More »

Lamborghini's canceled plans to build the Estoque, the ungainly four-door concept sedan named after a bull-fighting sword first shown last fall at the Paris Motor Show. More »

The Lamborghini Estoque, the four-door bull from Sant'Agata, will likely see a range of engine choices heretofore unseen from the automaker. In an attempt to meet stricter emissions standards, Lamborghini is considering turbocharging and/or the use of a diesel engine for the sedan. This would be in addition to the 5.2-liter V10 borrowed from the Gallardo, which could put out more than 500 horsepower for the Estoque. But diesel, really? More »

When the Lamborghini Estoque sedan was revealed at the Paris Auto Show nobody was completely surprised that it was a four-door. With the upcoming crop of super sedans like the Aston Martin Rapide and Porsche Panamera, a concept Lamborghini sedan just seemed like the trendy thing to do. But we're still left wondering "why?" This is Lamborghini we're talking about, a company that built its brand image on massive scoops and spoilers, not elegance. Of course, as you can see in this video of the official unveiling, Lamborghini CEO Stefan Winkelmann explains that it's all about dollars and lack-of-sense. More »

Yeah, OK, so Lamborghini was teasing us for what seemed like forever on the Lamborghini Estoque, the automakers new four-door "concept car." Not since the LM002 has the bull-headed brand put out a vehicle with a backseat, and that was a beautiful bastard for the brand anyway. No, the real money shot for this car wasn't the outside, it was what the backseat would look like. We can conclusively say — Lambo knows their rear seats — they look plush as all get out. However, we'd have preferred a bench. So come on, you Italian Stallions, hop to it! More »

The long unveil process is finally over, and here's the four-door Lamborghini Estoque Concept, live and in the flesh. We'd love to tell you more about Lambo's second ever four-door, and their first ever "four-door sports car" but since they haven't even made up their minds about which engine it'll have (anything from a big TDI to the Gallardo LP 560-4's V10), there's just not much to say. Looks better live than in the press shots though. And just in case you were wondering: we totally would. Lambo's lengthy release with little details on a car they're simply sure to make following the jump. More »

Here we are, the day before the big 2008 Paris Motor Show (well, the night for some of us) and the Lamborghini Estoque Concept can't seem to keep itself covered up. First we got leaked images a bit earlier today, and now, full high-resolution shots straight from Lamborghini, along with a full press release. In more than one place the presser makes it clear this is only a concept while simultaneously hinting at a future for the car. Though we expected details on the powerplant of the Estoque, it seems the fellows from Santa Agata are happy enough with giving us everything and nothing, saying it could take the Gallardo LP 560-4 V10, a turbocharged V8 based on the V10, a V8 with a hybrid module or an extremely high-performance TDI. Thanks, Lamborghini, that helps us none. Enjoy the pictures and the press release below. More »

Official images of the Lamborghini Estoque four-door have hit the web like a fat cow, in advance of the big Paris Motor Show reveal. These shots appear to show a front-engined four-door with recognizable Lamborghini cues up front, blending into a sharp sedan and finishing into a rear that's almost Camaro-esque. We're assuming the Lamborghini should be AWD and will likely be fitted with a V10 borrowed from the usual Lambo lineup of suspects. Oficial details as soon as we get them. More »

A fourth teaser shot's been dropped of the new four-door from the Italian bull-headed brand that may or may not be called the Lamborghini Estoque set to be revealed at the Paris Motor Show later this week. Someone needs to tell Lamborghini that enough is enough on the teaser shots. It's OK to tease a little, but you begin to get a bit of a reputation as the kind of girl that, you know, just likes to toy with the boys if you never deliver. You've already teased us once, twice, thrice and now, a fourth time. Frankly, it's getting tiring, and we're beginning to wonder if you're ever going to put out. I guess we'll have to wait until Thursday to find out. More »

With the likes of the Porsche Panamera, Aston Martin Rapide and Lamborghini Estoque super sedans coming to the Paris Motor Show, it made sense for young Russian designer Krasnov Igor to render up his idea of what a Ferrari four-door should look like. Thankfully, there likely won't be such a product, but if there will, we sure hope it doesn't look much like Igor's design. One could argue that the basic shape, if you squint, isn't all that bad, but the roof treatment and rear end completely ruin the rest of the package, and the wavy body panels make BMW's flame-surfacing look tame.

Seems the trademark claim Lamborghini placed on the name "Urus" may have been a red herring and the real name of the four-door super saloon set to debut at the Paris Motor Show may be the Lamborghini Estoque. What's an Estoque? It's the small sword used in the killing stroke of a true bullfight — a far more fitting name for the scion of the Espada (another sword by etymology) than archaic-German for "big cow." Although we still have a hard time containing ourselves over the idea of a Lambo that isn't a twitchy, center-engined, two-seater. Lamborghini has the opportunity here for breathtaking greatness, or badgineered offal, and the suspense is really starting to get to us. More »
