The industrial designers from Italdesign Giugiaro revealed today in Geneva two new concepts, the Parcour coupe and the roadster. The Italdesign Giugiaro Parcour is an interesting new car concept. It's a high-performance machine, based on the original concept of a Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV). The Parcour measures 4,530 mm in length, 1,335 mm in height and 2,070 in width. It weighs 1,550 kg. It has a mid-rear engine architecture with a 4WD drive system. To power the Parcour, Italdesign Giugiaro uses a 5,204 cc V10 engine that's good for 404 kW (550 hp) and 540 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. The engine was developed by Lamborghini. The engine is mated to a 7-speed Twin-clutch sequential automatic transmission.
With this powertrain, the Italdesign Giugiaro Parcour is able to accelerate from zero to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 5.6 seconds and to reach a top speed of 320 km/h. With a mid-engine, four-wheel-drive and monster V10 engine, this Parcour concept seems to preview a future Lamborghini SUV.
Both the Italdesign Giugiaro Parcour coupe and the roadster have short overhangs, and broad ramp angles, which means they can easily manage rough terrain. The Parcour concept sits on 22-inch alloys and Vredestein tires, and it offers between 210 mm and 330 mm of ground clearance thanks to an electronically-adjustable suspension system.
The Parcour is built using aluminum and carbon fiber and it comes with a retractable rear spoiler, butterfly doors, cameras that replace the mirrors, and two long carbon slits along the entire length of the car.
At the interior, the Italdesign Giugiaro Parcour comes with two fixed seats, adjustable steering wheel and pedals, and a multi-‐function LCD monitor in front of the driver.
