This is what leftlanenews.com is suggesting:
"Third teaser image leaks of Lamborghini ‘Urus’ four-door sedan
Lamborghini recently released two teaser photos of a model set to debut at next month’s Paris Auto Show, and a third image has now surfaced on the internet. Rumors have been swirling that the new car will be Lamborghini’s next supercar or a hopped up version of a current offering, but all signs indicated that Lamborghini’s next offering will be a four-door model.
According to Automotive News, the newest Lamborghini will be a four-door sedan, much in the same vein as the upcoming Porsche Panamera and Aston Martin Rapide. Like those aforementioned cars, the new model will have a heavy emphasis on performance while still being able to carry four — or possibly five — in luxurious style.
Unlike Lamborghini’s current offerings, the new sedan — rumored to be named ‘Urus’ — is slated to use a front-engine layout. However, Lamborghini’s signature all-wheel drive will be a part of the sedan’s package. The newest teaser shot gives us a view of the new Lambo’s taillight sections, which appears to have a cutout line for a trunk — further indicating a front-engine setup.
According to inside sources, the new sedan will likely ditch Lamborghini’s current gas-guzzling engine offerings. While even Lamborghini’s smallest V10 offering is probably off the table, an Audi-sourced direct-injection, twin-turbocharged powerplant should ensure the new sedan is up to Lamborghini performance standards.
Lamborghini will also lean heavily on parent Audi for the underpinnings of its new model. While the Panamera will do with a steel platform, the Lamborghini sedan will ride on the upcoming Audi A8’s all-aluminum space frame, allowing for a lower curb weight and improved performance and fuel economy numbers.
Lamborghini expects the new model to more than double the company’s current sales, with the sedan earmarked for 3,000 annual sales. Through the first six months of the year, Lamborghino sold just over 1,300 units.
No word on pricing but the new model is said to be debuting in production form, which means sales could begin as early as 2009."
I'm still hoping it's a GT model, I can't see Lamborghini making a four-seater. They're supposed to be rad and crazy, not being able to bring you family along for a ride!

This is very, very cool news. Lambo are really in their stride - and love the sneaky approach to it. Could the reason behind the tricky manouveuring be a little VW-Porsche rivalry here?
Panamera-people can't be thrilled with this project...
