Lamborghini to launch four-seat EV crossover and electric Urus
Firm's first EV will be a high-riding four-seater, followed by the all-electric second-generation Urus
Lamborghini's first electric car will be an all-new four-seat crossover, launching in 2028, followed by the all-electric second-generation
Urus SUV.
It was already known that Lamborghini was plotting a
2+2 seating configuration for its first EV, but now CEO Stephan Winkelmann has given more details on its positioning, which will be radically different to that of any model the brand has launched before.
Speaking exclusively to Autocar, he said: "When it comes to the first full-electric car, it's clear that our approach is clear and prudent.
"Clear because we say: 'Yes, electrification is part of our future'. And prudent because we say: 'It's a completely new car: the fourth model. It's a segment we haven't been in for decades, if we speak about a 2+2 or four-seater, maybe also high from the ground, with more ground clearance.'"
Winkelmann's comments suggest Lamborghini's first EV will be similar in its positioning to that of sibling brand Bentley, which will
also sit higher from the ground than a conventional saloon or grand tourer.
"There will be more ground clearance than a normal car, that's the idea, but there isn't a clear decision taken so far, and therefore it's a bit early to discuss this in depth."
