For Automobili Lamborghini, the year 2022 was full of milestones and accolades that mark the Italian supercar maker’s steady growth. Lamborghini continues to confirm positive trends following the inevitable impact of the pandemic that affected nearly every industry. For the past two years, the company has continued its impressive growth not only in terms of sales but also through the awards and certifications received.
In terms of numbers, Lamborghini in 2022 saw the best sales figures ever with 9,233 cars delivered worldwide, an increase of 10% over the previous year. Stephan Winkelmann, the Chairman, and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini, remarked:
“Our trend of growth and development continues, and this shows that our direction is sound and our choices are on the mark. This is the product of well-defined collective assessments that can produce consistent and concrete results. We have been able to carefully and meticulously manage an extraordinary order intake, pursuing a clear strategy with the primary objective of maintaining controlled growth to protect the exclusivity of our brand. 2023 is going to be a year of challenges and changes that we are ready to confront by always pushing ourselves beyond. We now have the opportunity to focus on our next objectives also thanks to an 18-month waiting list, which enables us to look to the future and the upcoming goals with confidence.”
Lamborghini anticipates a further acceleration of this trajectory in 2023 when it will begin to produce its first hybrid cars. The Italian automaker will enter the second phase of Direzione Cor Tauri program: a strategic roadmap unveiled in 2021 that involves the highest-ever investment in the company’s history (1.8 billion euros over 5 years) delivering the hybrid transition and subsequently the transition to fully-electric vehicles.
