SUV, 2 + 2 Projects Cancelled

[a007apl]

"According to our buddy Chris Paukert, formerly of Autoblog, who’s now posting for Winding Road, AutoExpress reports Lambo’s scuttled plans to build successors to its Espada GT and super-bad LM002 SUV (pictured) of the last millennium. Word had been swirling for years that a project to build a new 2+2 — an homage to the company’s odd Espada of the 1970s — was on, then off, then on again. Likewise for a new, high performance SUV — less radical than the shikh-bait LM002 — based on the VW Touareg / Porsche Cayanne / Audi Q7. Both projects are reportedly off, but there’s not word on whether the company will do the right thing and build the Miura concept for production."
