Second-half record for Lamborghini
Despite the ongoing pandemic, luxury carmaker Lamborghini sold a record number of vehicles in second half of 2020.
The Italian company also has a ‘solid’ orderbook covering more than half of this year’s production capacity.
It delivered 7,430 cars worldwide in 2020, a decrease of 9% compared with the previous year.
The slight drop is attributable to the 70-day production shutdown in the spring due to the covid-19 pandemic.
The United States was the top market with 2,224 cars, followed by Germany (607), mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau (604), Japan (600), the UK (517) and Italy (347).
New CEO Stephan Winkelmann said: “The 2020 results are a clear demonstration of the excellent work that, despite the difficulties of a year of global challenges, was carried out by the entire Lamborghini team with enormous dedication and a spirit of resilience.
“It is a great honour for me to again be part of our future: the sense of community felt so strongly during the past year, along with the values of social responsibility and the drive toward innovation that has always distinguished Lamborghini, will be the basis for confronting a challenging 2021, with the aim of consolidating the product range, seeking new business prospects, and further strengthening the brand.”
