The Lamborghini Jalpa was a sports car produced by the Italian automaker Lamborghini from 1981 to 1988. The Jalpa was a development of the earlier Silhouette. The Jalpa was intended to fill a role as a more "affordable" Lamborghini, being much less expensive than the Countach. Instead of the big car's Lamborghini V12, the Jalpa was fitted with a transversely-mounted 3.5 litre Lamborghini V8 that displaced 3,485 cubic centimetres (212.7 cu in) and developed 190 kilowatts (258 PS; 255 bhp). The bodywork was designed and built by Bertone.
