The Vauxhall Equus was a two-door concept car first presented by Vauxhall in spring, 1978.[1] The word equus is Latin for horse. It was the last concept car from Vauxhall for 25 years until August 2003, when the VX Lightning was unveiled at the 2004 Sunday Times Motorshow as part of the centrepiece to the company's centenary celebrations.[2][3]
