Lamborghini Marzal

Chassis

#10001

The presentation of the Carabo at the Paris Motor Show in 1968 was preceded the previous year by the Lamborghini Marzal prototype, which featured unconventional styling and ample window surfaces.

Vehicle Overview

The Lamborghini Marzal stands as a testament to the visionary design language of Marcello Gandini at Bertone and the audacious spirit of Ferruccio Lamborghini’s automotive empire. Conceived with the aim of delivering a four-seat grand tourer, the Marzal captivated enthusiasts with its groundbreaking features and avant-garde aesthetics. At the heart of the Marzal’s design ethos were its iconic gull-wing doors, adorned with expansive glass surfaces, a feat achieved in collaboration with Belgian company Glaverbel. These doors, along with the panoramic roof, not only elevated the vehicle’s visual appeal but also flooded the interior with natural light, accentuating its spaciousness. Inside, the cabin was bathed in a striking silver hue, further enhancing the sense of brightness and modernity. The design motif of the hexagon permeated throughout the Marzal’s interior and exterior, from the dashboard to the rear window and door trim, adding a cohesive and distinctive touch to the overall aesthetic. Under the hood, the Marzal was powered by a unique 6-cylinder engine, derived from the legendary Lamborghini Miura, with a displacement of 1,965 cm³ and a 5-speed transmission. Mechanically innovative, the Marzal boasted a rear-mounted engine configuration, achieved by lengthening the Miura chassis by 12 centimeters. This layout not only facilitated room for four passengers but also contributed to the vehicle’s balanced handling and performance prowess. Despite its classification as a concept car, the Marzal was fully functional, making waves as it graced the streets and even the prestigious Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix in 1967, driven by Princess Grace and her husband. The Marzal’s influence extended beyond its singular existence, serving as a stylistic muse for subsequent Lamborghini models, most notably the Espada. Its avant-garde design captivated model car manufacturers, who sought to replicate its allure in miniature form. Today, one of the Marzal prototypes finds its home in the museum dedicated to Ferruccio Lamborghini, a testament to its enduring legacy and significance in automotive history. Named after the breed of bulls used in bullfighting arenas, the Lamborghini Marzal embodies the essence of power, elegance, and innovation. Its revolutionary design, epitomized by the harmonious balance between panels and glazed areas, stands as a testament to Bertone’s creative ingenuity and Lamborghini’s unwavering pursuit of automotive excellence.
