Lamborghini To Go Full-Hybrid By 2025, Launch All-New Electric Supercar Before 2030

Lamborghini has announced an electrification drive for the brand under the initiative ‘Direzione Cor Tauri’. The environmental sustainability route that will lead Lamborghini to the decarbonization of its future models is a three-step process as explained by Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini. What it essentially means is that the iconic Supercar maker from Sant’Agata, Italy will go fully-hybrid by 2025 and will also launch its first fully all-electric supercar by the end of the decade.
