The Lamborghini LM002 is an SUV that was built by the Lamborghini automobile company between 1986 and 1993. The LM002 was an unusual departure for Lamborghini which is primarily known for high-performance grand tourers and sports cars. The LM002 is also the first four-wheel-drive model manufactured by Lamborghini. Dubbed the “Rambo-Lambo” this SUV was marketed toward rich Saudi sheiks because of its incomparable performance in the desert due to the Scorpion tires, an oversized radiator, and a large air cleaner which sat on top of 6 Weber carburetors. For those requiring even more power, the L804 7.2 litre marine V12, more commonly found in Class 1 offshore powerboats, could be specified.
But wait….
Lamborghini has just debuted it’s new “Urus” concept promising 600 horsepower and permanent all-wheel-drive. Main targets for the Urus will be the United States, Great Britain, Germany, Russia, the Middle East and China. Lamborghini vows that the new Urus will have the lowest CO2 emissions of any luxury SUV. Expect to see around 3,000 of them for a first production round. (Only 300 of the LM002 were made before it was discontinued in 1992.)
