->Gallardo Spyder/Roadster: Will probably be launched in the first quarter of 2006. Is planned to have a revised 5.2-litre version of the current Gallardo engine with between 550 and 600 hp. It should have a fully automatic fabric roof and an electric vertical rear window.

->Murciélago R-GT road-going version: Only 25 are planned and it is to be launched towards the end of 2005. A 6.5-litre version of the well-known Lamborghini V12 will give the car around 650-680 hp. It will be a rear-wheel drive vehicle with E-gear and ceramic brake discs. This car is expected to be a real comptetitor to the Ferrari Enzo, and a 0-100 km/h time of less than 3.5 seconds is targeted.

->Murciélago GT or SV: Can be expected around the same time as the 2005 R-GT and should have the same 6.5-litre V12. It will receive a revised four-wheel drive system and a mild facelift. Shorter gearing and ceramic brake disks could be some options for this version of the Murciélago.

->Espada II: A long four-wheel drive saloon with V10 power in the nose and four seats is on the drawing board and could see the light of day in a few years. A rear hatch is planned and should ensure that it won't steal sales from it's blood brothers.

->Espada II two-seat cabriolet: Could be spun off the Espada successor project. Both V12 and V10 engines could power this vehicle.

->LM00X: Lamborghini is working on a sports off-roader inspired by the LM002. It will possibly be prepared in three version: A four-wheel drive advanced Reef Runner, a four-wheel drive simpler Road Runner and a two-wheel drive lower Race Runner. All are planned to have two doors with scissor set-up functionality.
