It takes the design, and cutting-edge engineering expertise found in the current Lamborghini product range, adding innovative hybrid technology. Therefore, creating a Lamborghini that is clearly different – with a new, unexpected and sensual design. Moreover, it’s in line with the technical characteristics of the car – but yet still unmistakably a Lamborghini!!
