Lamborghini is considering going Porsche by stepping outside its core business of producing supercars. According to the company’s CEO Stephan Winkelmann, an everyday model will work just right for his brand. “We are going to have a third model. It has to be an everyday car. We want to have a car which is able to be used on a daily basis,” he told Reuters.
What type of car this will be is currently the stuff of internet speculation, although strong indications are of a sedan type body. In 2008 Lambo unveiled the Estoque Concept car (pictured) at the Paris International Motor Show. At the rime speculation ran high that within the following two years such a car would come to life. That did not happen, partly because of the global recession. Recession is no more as 2011 Q1 figures have shown.
There are other possibilities of course, including a two-door coupe not unlike the Mercedes-Benz CL or cousin company Bentley’s Continental GT. Some people are even saying it will be an SUV!
Lambo recently revealed the Aventador, its newest flagship car and replacement for the old Murcielago.
