Vehicle Overview

The Lamborghini Tigre was a design proposal developed by Carrozzeria Touring for the iconic Lamborghini Miura. Conceived in 1965, this visionary project was codenamed ‘Tigre’ and featured the innovative design work of Federico Formenti. Although it ultimately remained a scale model and never reached full production, the Tigre stands out as a significant milestone in automotive design history. Federico Formenti’s design for the Tigre encapsulated the forward-thinking and bold aesthetics that Lamborghini would become famous for. The Tigre’s sleek, aerodynamic lines and aggressive stance were intended to capture the spirit of a powerful and agile predator, fitting perfectly with the Lamborghini brand’s emphasis on high performance and striking looks. The scale model presented by Carrozzeria Touring highlighted several design elements that would later influence the final production version of the Miura, blending elegance with a sense of speed and dynamism. The Tigre project showcased Carrozzeria Touring’s design prowess and ability to push the boundaries of conventional car design. Known for their craftsmanship and creativity, Carrozzeria Touring had already established a reputation for producing some of the most beautiful and innovative automotive designs. The Lamborghini Tigre was no exception, embodying the coachbuilder’s commitment to excellence and innovation. Despite the Tigre remaining a concept, its impact on automotive design was undeniable. The final production Miura, which debuted in 1966, incorporated many design cues that echoed the Tigre’s bold vision. The Miura went on to become one of the most iconic and influential sports cars of all time, cementing Lamborghini’s place in the pantheon of high-performance automotive brands. The Lamborghini Tigre, with its groundbreaking design by Federico Formenti and Carrozzeria Touring, remains a fascinating chapter in the history of automotive design. It serves as a testament to the creative spirit and ingenuity that drive the automotive industry forward, inspiring future generations of designers and car enthusiasts alike.
