| Designed by Marcello Gandini for Bertone, the Espada debuted at the Geneva Auto Show in 1968, the height of the counter-culture in the U.S. This two-door, four-seat coupe had a very unusual body style, yet lacked nothing in the power department with its V12, 60º engine putting out 325 bhp & 6500 rpm. This output was later boosted to 340 bhp & 7000 rpm. In keeping with Ferruccio Lamborghini's bullfighting naming conventions, "Espada" means sword - an essential weapon of the bullfighter. |
