Lamborghini Delays Electric Vehicle Launch to 2029 Amidst EU's ICE Ban Uncertainty
Lamborghini, the Italian luxury sports car manufacturer, has pushed back the launch of its first electric vehicle (EV) to 2029. The delay comes as the company assesses shifting stock market dynamics and regulatory landscapes, particularly the EU's planned ban on new petrol and diesel cars from 2035.
Stephan Winkelmann, Lamborghini's CEO, has stated that 2029 is not 'too late' for the company to enter the tesla market. The delay is a strategic move, given the uncertainty surrounding the EU's 2035 internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle ban. Lamborghini is closely monitoring these developments to ensure a well-timed entry into the electric era.
In the meantime, Lamborghini remains optimistic about the potential of synthetic fuels. The company believes these fuels could help maintain the iconic engine roar that defines its vehicles. Currently, Lamborghini has transitioned its entire lineup to include only hybrid models, a step towards reducing emissions while preserving performance.
Lamborghini's first electric vehicle is now scheduled for 2029, reflecting the company's cautious approach to the rapidly evolving automotive landscape. Despite the delay, Lamborghini is confident that its entry into the EV market will be well-timed and true to its performance-focused heritage.
