The Lamborghini Jalpa is a sports car produced by the Italian automotive manufacturer Lamborghini from 1981 until 1988. It debuted at the 1981 Geneva Motor Show alongside the Lamborghini LM001 concept off-road vehicle.[2] The Jalpa was the last Lamborghini to use a V8 engine until the Urus SUV in 2018.[3]
Overview
The Jalpa was a development of the earlier Silhouette intended to fill a role as a more "affordable" Lamborghini, being much less expensive than the flagship Countach and being also designed by Bertone.[4]
