Lamborghini isn’t committing to any future electric cars beyond these two of its “daily drivers” and as yet has no plans to launch an electric supercar in either its Revuelto or Huracán-replacing lineages because it believes it already has the needs of the supercar market covered.
However, Winkelmann believes that future legislation will make it “almost impossible” to keep internal-combustion-engined cars on sale even if they are technically within the rules. The firm develops its models to meet the strictest homologation legislation around emissions, and the Clean Air Act in California is typically the strictest. With the ban on the sale of non-EVs after 2035, Winkelmann inferred that this is the way Lamborghini will have to go. He said: “You go with the most difficult legislation, which is the US, and is really California. Other states adopt California’s rules – typically big cities and that’s where we sell cars.
