Ferruccio Lamborghini (1916–1993), an Italian manufacturing magnate, founded Automobili Ferruccio Lamborghini S.p.A. in 1963 to compete with Ferrari. The company was noted for using a rear mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout. Lamborghini grew rapidly during its first decade, but sales plunged in the wake of the 1973 worldwide financial downturn and the oil crisis. The firm's ownership changed three times after 1973, including a bankruptcy in 1978. American Chrysler Corporation took control of Lamborghini in 1987 and sold it to Malaysian investment group Mycom Setdco and Indonesian group V'Power Corporation in 1994. In 1998, Mycom Setdco and V'Power sold Lamborghini to the Volkswagen Group where it was placed under the control of the group's Audi division.

New products and model lines were introduced to the brand's portfolio and brought to the market and saw an increased productivity for the brand. In the late 2000s, during the worldwide financial crisis and the subsequent economic crisis, Lamborghini's sales saw a drop of nearly 50 per cent.

Lamborghini currently produces the V12-powered Aventador and the V10-powered Huracán, along with the Urus SUV powered by a twin-turbo V8 engine. In addition, the company produces V12 engines for offshore powerboat racing.

Lamborghini Trattori, founded in 1948 by Ferruccio Lamborghini, is headquartered in Pieve di Cento, Italy and continues to produce tractors. Since 1973, Lamborghini Trattori has been a separate entity from the automobile manufacturer.

History

 
Ferruccio Lamborghini with a Jarama and a tractor of his brand

Manufacturing magnate Italian Ferruccio Lamborghini founded the company in 1963 with the objective of producing a refined grand touring car to compete with offerings from established marques such as Ferrari. The company's first models, such as the 350 GT, were released in the mid-1960s. Lamborghini was noted for the 1966 Miura sports coupé, which used a rear mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout.

Lamborghini grew rapidly during its first ten years, but sales fell in the wake of the 1973 worldwide financial downturn and the oil crisis. Ferruccio Lamborghini sold the company to Georges-Henri Rossetti and René Leimer and retired in 1974. The company went bankrupt in 1978, and was placed in the receivership of brothers Jean-Claude and Patrick Mimran in 1980. The Mimrans purchased the company out of receivership by 1984 and invested heavily in its expansion. Under the Mimrans' management, Lamborghini's model line was expanded from the Countach to include the Jalpa sports car and the LM002 high-performance off-road vehicle.

The Mimrans sold Lamborghini to the Chrysler Corporation in 1987. After replacing the Countach with the Diablo and discontinuing the Jalpa and the LM002, Chrysler sold Lamborghini to Malaysian investment group Mycom Setdco and Indonesian group V'Power Corporation in 1994. In 1998, Mycom Setdco and V'Power sold Lamborghini to the Volkswagen Group where it was placed under the control of the group's Audi division. New products and model lines were introduced to the brand's portfolio and brought to the market and saw an increased productivity for the brand Lamborghini. In the late 2000s, during the worldwide financial crisis and the subsequent economic crisis, Lamborghini's sales saw a drop of nearly 50 per cent.

In 2021, the CEO of Lamborghini said that by 2024 all its models will be hybrid.[5]

The Miura began as a clandestine prototype, a car that had racing pedigree in a company that was entirely against motorsport.

In contrast to his rival Enzo Ferrari, Ferruccio Lamborghini had decided early on that there would be no factory-supported racing of Lamborghinis, viewing motorsport as too expensive and too draining on company resources.[21] This was unusual for the time, as many sports car manufacturers sought to demonstrate speed, reliability, and technical superiority through motorsport participation. Enzo Ferrari in particular was known for considering his road car business mostly a source of funding for his participation in motor racing. Ferruccio's policy led to tensions between him and his engineers, many of whom were racing enthusiasts; some had previously worked at Ferrari. When Dallara, Stanzani, and Wallace began dedicating their spare time to the development of the P400 prototype, they designed it to be a road car with racing potential, one that could win on the track and also be driven on the road by enthusiasts.[22] When Ferruccio discovered the project, he allowed them to go ahead, seeing it as a potential marketing device for the company, while insisting that it would not be raced. The P400 went on to become the Miura. The closest the company came to building a true race car under Lamborghini's supervision were a few highly modified prototypes, including those built by factory test driver Bob Wallace, such as the Miura SV-based "Jota" and the Jarama S-based "Bob Wallace Special".

In the mid-1970s, while Lamborghini was under the management of Georges-Henri Rossetti, Lamborghini entered into an agreement with BMW to develop, then manufacture 400 cars for BMW in order to meet Group 4 homologation requirements. BMW lacked experience developing a mid-engined vehicle and believed that Lamborghini's experience in that area would make Lamborghini an ideal choice of partner. Due to Lamborghini's shaky finances, Lamborghini fell behind schedule developing the car's structure and running gear. When Lamborghini failed to deliver working prototypes on time, BMW took the program in house, finishing development without Lamborghini. BMW contracted with Baur to produce the car, which BMW named the M1, delivering the first vehicle in October 1978.[23][24]

In 1985, Lamborghini's British importer developed the Countach QVX, in conjunction with Spice Engineering, for the 1986 Group C championship season. One car was built, but lack of sponsorship caused it to miss the season. The QVX competed in only one race, the non-championship 1986 Southern Suns 500 km race at Kyalami in South Africa, driven by Tiff Needell. Despite the car finishing better than it started, sponsorship could once again not be found and the programme was cancelled.[25]

 
The 1990 Lotus 102 featured a Lamborghini V12 engine.

Lamborghini was an engine supplier in Formula One for the 1989 through 1993 Formula One seasons. It supplied engines to Larrousse (1989–1990, 1992–1993), Lotus (1990), Ligier (1991), Minardi (1992), and to the Modena team in 1991. While the latter is commonly referred to as a factory team, the company saw itself as a supplier, not a backer. The 1992 Larrousse–Lamborghini was largely uncompetitive but noteworthy in its tendency to spew oil from its exhaust system. Cars following closely behind the Larrousse were commonly coloured yellowish-brown by the end of the race.[26] Lamborghini's best result was achieved with Larrousse at the 1990 Japanese Grand Prix, when Aguri Suzuki finished third on home soil.[27]

In late 1991, a Lamborghini Formula One motor was used in the Konrad KM-011 Group C sports car, but the car only lasted a few races before the project was cancelled. The same engine, re-badged a Chrysler, Lamborghini's then-parent company, was tested by McLaren towards the end of the 1993 season, with the intent of using it during the 1994 season. Although driver Ayrton Senna was reportedly impressed with the engine's performance, McLaren pulled out of negotiations, choosing a Peugeot engine instead, and Chrysler ended the project.

 
A Murcielago R-GT participating in the FIA GT Championship at Silverstone in 2006

Two racing versions of the Diablo were built for the Diablo Supertrophy, a single-model racing series held annually from 1996 to 1999. In the first year, the model used in the series was the Diablo SVR, while the Diablo 6.0 GTR was used for the remaining three years.[28][29] Lamborghini developed the Murciélago R-GT as a production racing car to compete in the FIA GT Championship, the Super GT Championship and the American Le Mans Series in 2004. The car's highest placing in any race that year was the opening round of the FIA GT Championship at Valencia, where the car entered by Reiter Engineering finished third from a fifth-place start.[30][31] In 2006, during the opening round of the Super GT championship at Suzuka, a car run by the Japan Lamborghini Owners Club garnered the first victory (in class) by an R-GT. A GT3 version of the Gallardo has been developed by Reiter Engineering.[32] A Murciélago R-GT entered by All-Inkl.com racing, driven by Christophe Bouchut and Stefan Mücke, won the opening round of the FIA GT Championship held at Zhuhai International Circuit, achieving the first major international race victory for Lamborghini.[33]

Marketing

Brand identity

 
The Lamborghini wordmark, as displayed on the back of its cars

The world of bullfighting is a key part of Lamborghini's identity.[34][35][36] In 1962, Ferruccio Lamborghini visited the Seville ranch of Don Eduardo Miura, a renowned breeder of Spanish fighting bulls. Lamborghini was so impressed by the majestic Miura animals that he decided to adopt a raging bull as the emblem for the automaker he would open shortly.[37]

Vehicle nomenclature

After producing two cars with alphanumeric designations, Lamborghini once again turned to the bull breeder for inspiration. Don Eduardo was filled with pride when he learned that Ferruccio had named a car for his family and their line of bulls; the fourth Miura to be produced was unveiled to him at his ranch in Seville.[37][38]

The automaker would continue to draw upon the bullfighting connection in future years. The Islero was named for the Miura bull that killed the famed bullfighter Manolete in 1947. Espada is the Spanish word for sword, sometimes used to refer to the bullfighter himself. The Jarama's name carried a special double meaning; though it was intended to refer only to the historic bullfighting region in Spain, Ferruccio was concerned about confusion with the also historic Jarama motor racing track.[39]

 
The Diablo (background) was named for a legendary bull, while the Countach (foreground) broke from the bullfighting tradition.

After christening the Urraco after a bull breed, in 1974, Lamborghini broke from tradition, naming the Countach (/ˈkntɑːʃ/) not for a bull,[40] but for contacc (pronounced [kʊŋˈtɑtʃ]), a Piedmontese expletive.[40] Legend has it that stylist Nuccio Bertone uttered the word in surprise when he first saw the Countach prototype, "Project 112".[41] The LM002 (LM for Lamborghini Militaire) sport utility vehicle and the Silhouette (named after the popular racing category of the time) were other exceptions to the tradition.

The Jalpa of 1982 was named for a bull breed; Diablo, for the Duke of Veragua's ferocious bull famous for fighting an epic battle against El Chicorro in Madrid in 1869;[42][43][44] Murciélago, the legendary bull whose life was spared by El Lagartijo for his performance in 1879; Gallardo, named for one of the five ancestral castes of the Spanish fighting bull breed;[45] and Reventón, the bull that defeated young Mexican torero Félix Guzmán in 1943. The Estoque concept of 2008 was named for the estoc, the sword traditionally used by matadors during bullfights.[46]

Concept vehicles

Throughout its history, Lamborghini has envisioned and presented a variety of concept cars, beginning in 1963 with the very first Lamborghini prototype, the 350GTV. Other famous models include Bertone's 1967 Marzal, 1974 Bravo, and 1980 Athon, Chrysler's 1987 Portofino, the Italdesign-styled Cala from 1995, the Zagato-built Raptor from 1996.

A retro-styled Lamborghini Miura concept car, the first creation of chief designer Walter de'Silva, was presented in 2006. President and CEO Stephan Winkelmann denied that the concept would be put into production, saying that the Miura concept was "a celebration of our history, but Lamborghini is about the future. Retro design is not what we are here for. So we won’t do the [new] Miura.”[47]

 
The Estoque, a 2008 sedan concept

At the 2008 Paris Motor Show, Lamborghini revealed the Estoque, a four-door sedan concept. Although there had been much speculation regarding the Estoque's eventual production,[48][49] Lamborghini management has not made a decision regarding production of what might be the first four-door car to roll out of the Sant'Agata factory.[50]

 
The Concept S, a Gallardo derivative

At the 2010 Paris Motor Show, Lamborghini unveiled the Sesto Elemento. The concept car is made almost entirely of carbon fibre making it extremely light, with a weight of 999 kg (2,202 lb). The Sesto Elemento shares the same V10 engine found in the Lamborghini Gallardo. Lamborghini hopes to signal a shift in the company's direction from making super cars focused on top speed to producing more agile, track focused cars with the Sesto Elemento. The concept car can reach 0–62 mph (0–100 km/h) in 2.5 seconds and can reach a top speed of over 180 mph.[51]

At the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, Lamborghini unveiled the Aventador J – a roofless, windowless version of the Lamborghini Aventador. The Aventador J uses the same 700 hp engine and seven-speed transmission as the standard Aventador.[52]

At the 2012 Beijing Motor Show, Lamborghini unveiled the Urus SUV. This is the first SUV built by Lamborghini since the LM002.

As part of the celebration of 50 years of Lamborghini, the company created the Egoista. Egoista is for one person's driving and only one Egoista is to be made.[53]

At the 2014 Paris Motor Show, Lamborghini unveiled the Asterion LPI910-4 hybrid concept car. Named after the half-man, half-bull hybrid (Minotaur) of Greek legend, it is the first hybrid Lamborghini in the history of the company. Utilizing the Huracán's 5.2 litre V10 producing 607 hp (453 kW; 615 PS), along with one electric motor mounted on the transaxle and an additional two on the front axle, developing an additional 300 hp (224 kW; 304 PS). This puts the power at a combined figure of 907 hp (676 kW; 920 PS). The 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) time is claimed to be just above 3 seconds, with a claimed top speed of 185 mph (298 km/h).[54]

Corporate affairs

Structure

As of 2011, Lamborghini is structured as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Audi AG named Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A.[Notes 1][55]

Minardi Venturi LarrousseConstructors Championships0Drivers Championships0Race victories0Podiums1Points20Pole positions0Fastest laps0 The Miura began as a clandestine prototype a car that had racing pedigree in a company that was entirely against motorsport In contrast to his rival Enzo Ferrari Ferruccio Lamborghini had decided early on that there would be no factory supported racing of Lamborghinis viewing motorsport as too expensive and too draining on company resources 21 This was unusual for the time as many sports car manufacturers sought to demonstrate speed reliability and technical superiority through motorsport participation Enzo Ferrari in particular was known for considering his road car business mostly a source of funding for his participation in motor racing Ferruccio s policy led to tensions between him and his engineers many of whom were racing enthusiasts some had previously worked at Ferrari When Dallara Stanzani and Wallace began dedicating their spare time to the development of the P400 prototype they designed it to be a road car with racing potential one that could win on the track and also be driven on the road by enthusiasts 22 When Ferruccio discovered the project he allowed them to go ahead seeing it as a potential marketing device for the company while insisting that it would not be raced The P400 went on to become the Miura The closest the company came to building a true race car under Lamborghini s supervision were a few highly modified prototypes including those built by factory test driver Bob Wallace such as the Miura SV based Jota and the Jarama S based Bob Wallace Special In the mid 1970s while Lamborghini was under the management of Georges Henri Rossetti Lamborghini entered into an agreement with BMW to develop then manufacture 400 cars for BMW in order to meet Group 4 homologation requirements BMW lacked experience developing a mid engined vehicle and believed that Lamborghini s experience in that area would make Lamborghini an ideal choice of partner Due to Lamborghini s shaky finances Lamborghini fell behind schedule developing the car s structure and running gear When Lamborghini failed to deliver working prototypes on time BMW took the program in house finishing development without Lamborghini BMW contracted with Baur to produce the car which BMW named the M1 delivering the first vehicle in October 1978 23 24 In 1985 Lamborghini s British importer developed the Countach QVX in conjunction with Spice Engineering for the 1986 Group C championship season One car was built but lack of sponsorship caused it to miss the season The QVX competed in only one race the non championship 1986 Southern Suns 500 km race at Kyalami in South Africa driven by Tiff Needell Despite the car finishing better than it started sponsorship could once again not be found and the programme was cancelled 25 The 1990 Lotus 102 featured a Lamborghini V12 engine Lamborghini was an engine supplier in Formula One for the 1989 through 1993 Formula One seasons It supplied engines to Larrousse 1989 1990 1992 1993 Lotus 1990 Ligier 1991 Minardi 1992 and to the Modena team in 1991 While the latter is commonly referred to as a factory team the company saw itself as a supplier not a backer The 1992 Larrousse Lamborghini was largely uncompetitive but noteworthy in its tendency to spew oil from its exhaust system Cars following closely behind the Larrousse were commonly coloured yellowish brown by the end of the race 26 Lamborghini s best result was achieved with Larrousse at the 1990 Japanese Grand Prix when Aguri Suzuki finished third on home soil 27 In late 1991 a Lamborghini Formula One motor was used in the Konrad KM 011 Group C sports car but the car only lasted a few races before the project was cancelled The same engine re badged a Chrysler Lamborghini s then parent company was tested by McLaren towards the end of the 1993 season with the intent of using it during the 1994 season Although driver Ayrton Senna was reportedly impressed with the engine s performance McLaren pulled out of negotiations choosing a Peugeot engine instead and Chrysler ended the project A Murcielago R GT participating in the FIA GT Championship at Silverstone in 2006 Two racing versions of the Diablo were built for the Diablo Supertrophy a single model racing series held annually from 1996 to 1999 In the first year the model used in the series was the Diablo SVR while the Diablo 6 0 GTR was used for the remaining three years 28 29 Lamborghini developed the Murcielago R GT as a production racing

Lamborghini s identity 34 35 36 In 1962 Ferruccio Lamborghini visited the Seville ranch of Don Eduardo Miura a renowned breeder of Spanish fighting bulls Lamborghini was so impressed by the majestic Miura animals that he decided to adopt a raging bull as the emblem for the automaker he would open shortly 37 Vehicle nomenclature After producing two cars with alphanumeric designations Lamborghini once again turned to the bull breeder for inspiration Don Eduardo was filled with pride when he learned that Ferruccio had named a car for his family and their line of bulls the fourth Miura to be produced was unveiled to him at his ranch in Seville 37 38 The automaker would continue to draw upon the bullfighting connection in future years The Islero was named for the Miura bull that killed the famed bullfighter Manolete in 1947 Espada is the Spanish word for sword sometimes used to refer to the bullfighter himself The Jarama s name carried a special double meaning though it was intended to refer only to the historic bullfighting region in Spain Ferruccio was concerned about confusion with the also historic Jarama motor racing track 39 The Diablo background was named for a legendary bull while the Countach foreground broke from the bullfighting tradition After christening the Urraco after a bull breed in 1974 Lamborghini broke from tradition naming the Countach ˈ k uː n t ɑː ʃ not for a bull 40 but for contacc pronounced kʊŋˈtɑtʃ a Piedmontese expletive 40 Legend has it that stylist Nuccio Bertone uttered the word in surprise when he first saw the Countach prototype Project 112 41 The LM002 LM for Lamborghini Militaire sport utility vehicle and the Silhouette named after the popular racing category of the time were other exceptions to the tradition The Jalpa of 1982 was named for a bull breed Diablo for the Duke of Veragua s ferocious bull famous for fighting an epic battle against El Chicorro in Madrid in 1869 42 43 44 Murcielago the legendary bull whose life was spared by El Lagartijo for his performance in 1879 Gallardo named for one of the five ancestral castes of the Spanish fighting bull breed 45 and Reventon the bull that defeated young Mexican torero Felix Guzman in 1943 The Estoque concept of 2008 was named for the estoc the sword traditionally used by matadors during bullfights 46 Concept vehicles See also List of Lamborghini concept vehicles
