Volkswagen-owned Lamborghini is to end production of its upcoming luxury electric car, CEO Stefan Winkelmann told the Sunday Times.
He confirmed that the SUV-like electric car called Lanzador will no longer join the Lamborghini lineup. The car was originally scheduled for 2028 but has been repeatedly delayed.
Lamborghini said the Lanzador will be replaced by a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), which is currently the powertrain of choice for its flagship Urus SUV and Temerario and Revuelto supercars. The next-generation Urus, due in 2029, will remain a PHEV, despite being originally planned as another electric car.
