1967 Lamborghini Marzal Concept

The Lamborghini Marzal is a concept car presented at the 1967 Geneva Motor Show. Designed by Marcello Gandini on behalf of Bertone, it was created with the intention of providing Ferruccio Lamborghini with a four-seater grand tourer.

Among the distinctive features of the car are the gull-wing doors and large glass surfaces, which were manufactured (along with the roof) by the Belgian company Glaverbel. The engine, a 6-cylinder with a displacement of 1,965 cc, was obtained by "cutting" a 12-cylinder engine from the Lamborghini Miura in half. The transmission was 5-speed.

Although the Marzal remained a one-of-a-kind prototype, it served as a stylistic inspiration for the lines of the subsequent Lamborghini Espada. One of the prototypes is currently on display at the museum dedicated to Ferruccio Lamborghini in Dosso, a hamlet of Sant'Agostino, in the province of Ferrara.

The car's name derives from bullfighting, like other models of Lamborghini, in fact Marzal is the name of a breed of bulls used in bullfighting.
