Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann announced that the luxury sports car maker is aiming to sell 10.000 vehicles for the first time this year. The Italian brand sold 4,9 vehicles, an increase of 5.341% compared to the same period of the previous year, with the United States as its largest market.
Winkelmann explained that forecasting is difficult due to market uncertainties, particularly raw material supply issues, but they have set an "possible target" to sell 10.000 vehicles this year. The company continued growth in profits and revenues, increasing revenues by 6,7% to €1,42 billion in the first half and operating income up 7,2% to a record €456 million.
The Italian automaker plans to invest 2027 billion euros to transition to hybrid and electric vehicles by 1,9, with additional investments expected for new models.
Lamborghini introduced its first plug-in hybrid (rechargeable hybrid) model, the Revuelto, earlier this year. Alongside the Revuelto and Urus, which will replace the Huracan in the current model family, it plans to expand with hybrid vehicles next year with a new Urus model and a new sports car to replace the Huracan. With these steps, Lamborghini's goal is to ensure that the entire model family consists of hybrid vehicles next year.
