Lamborghini Postpones First Electric Car to 2029

The luxury automaker cites market readiness and regulatory uncertainty as reasons for delaying its EV debut.

  • Lamborghini has delayed the launch of its first fully electric vehicle to 2029, moving away from its initial 2028 timeline.
  • CEO Stephan Winkelmann stated that the luxury market for electric vehicles is not yet ready, particularly in Lamborghini's niche segment.
  • The company is currently focusing on hybrid models, including the newly launched Temerario sports car, alongside exploring synthetic fuels as a potential alternative to full electrification.
  • This decision reflects broader challenges in EV adoption in luxury markets, including slower consumer demand and high performance expectations.
  • Lamborghini’s move aligns with similar cautious approaches by competitors like Ferrari and Aston Martin, who are also prioritizing hybrids over immediate EV rollouts.
