Unlike Lamborghini models as of 2008, which were mid-engine, two-seater sports cars, the Estoque is a four-door sedan.

[7] It had a 5.2 litre V10 engine shared with the Gallardo, although there had been speculation that this would be replaced by a V12, V8, or possibly even a hybrid or a turbo-diesel engine, as suggested by the then Lamborghini Brand Director, Manfred Fitzgerald.

[7] It was reported on 22 March 2009 that production plans for the Lamborghini Estoque were cancelled.

Lamborghini executives responded to this by stating that the Estoque had not reached the production planning stage and that the decision whether to produce the Estoque or not has been delayed due to sales and marketing considerations.

[10] However, Winkelmann also stated that Lamborghini does not have any plans to manufacture the Estoque and that it was only a concept vehicle.
