During the 2013 Geneva Motor Show this week, and to mark the company’s 45th anniversary, Italian design firm Italdesign Giugiaro introduced the new Parcour concept.
Parcour or “Parkour” is a French word for the “art of displacement”, in other words, moving from one place to another while overcoming the obstacles in between; the firm gave it this name for obvious reasons: it can drive over rough terrain with no difficulty.
The Parcour is powered by a 542-hp 5.2-liter V10 engine sourced from the Lamborghini Gallardo, connected to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission that drives all four wheels.
Both a coupe and a roadster version of the concept were built; Italdesign says the car can sprint from 0 to 100km/h in 3.6 seconds before hitting a top speed of 320km/h.
