Lamborghini is één van de heilige Italiaanse merken. Een historisch, rijk merk die zich enkel richt op de ontwikkeling van ’s werelds snelste, luxueuze wagens. Een beetje teleurgesteld zijn wij dan ook in Lamborghini’s keuze om een Lamborghini SUV te gaan ontwikkelen. In 2018 zal het eerste model van de band rollen…en waarschijnlijk direct naar het Midden-Oosten getransporteerd worden. Ook op de Amerikaanse en Europese markt zal de aangekondigde SUV verschijnen.
“Automobili Lamborghini SpA will build a new high-performance sport utility vehicle in Italy that may double the size of the supercar brand, after reaching a deal on tax breaks with Prime Minister Matteo Renzi’s government, said people familiar with the matter.
Lamborghini Chief Executive Officer Stephan Winkelmann and Rupert Stadler, the CEO of its parent company Audi AG, are scheduled to attend a press conference in Rome Wednesday with Renzi to announce the agreement, said people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be named before the announcement. A Lamborghini representative declined to comment.
Lamborghini met several times in the last few months with representatives of the Italian government before making a final decision on the production of the SUV, people familiar with the matter said earlier this month. To cut costs, the chassis and other key components are set to be produced at Volkswagen AG factories, such as a plant in Bratislava, Slovakia, where the frame for the Porsche Cayenne SUV is made, the people said.”
