Lamborghini Lanzador GT concept introduces four-seat EV
【Summary】Lamborghini has unveiled its first electric vehicle, the Lanzador GT concept, which is a four-seat GT model aimed at bridging the gap between the Urus SUV and the company's mid-engined supercars. The concept, showcased at Monterey Car Week, offers enhanced versatility and is described as a "laboratory on wheels" that showcases the brand's future technology and manufacturing methods.
The long-awaited electric Lamborghini has finally arrived, marking a significant milestone for the supercar company. After the successful launch of the Urus SUV five years ago, Lamborghini is now venturing into a new segment with the introduction of the Lanzador, a thrilling four-seat GT.
Unveiled as a concept at Monterey Car Week in California, the Lanzador is set to be released in five years' time. This sleek two-row supercar shares a similar size to the Porsche Taycan but sits higher from the ground, aiming to provide enhanced versatility.
The Lanzador has been designed as a bridge between the Urus SUV and Lamborghini's traditional mid-engined supercars. It represents a concrete vision of the company's next model line, staying true to Lamborghini's DNA by offering best-in-class sportiness and a fun-to-drive character.
More than just a show car, the Lanzador is described as a "laboratory on wheels," showcasing the production intent of its technology and manufacturing methods.
The confirmation of an electric Lamborghini came in 2021 when CEO Stephan Winkelmann revealed that discussions about the car's body style and positioning were underway. However, speculation about Lamborghini's first EV has been circulating since 2017, when the futuristic Terzo Millennio hypercar hinted at the company's zero-emission future.
The Lanzador provides a glimpse into Lamborghini's electric future, giving insight into what their upcoming EVs will look and sound like. When asked why the new model is being showcased five years before its release, Winkelmann explained that it's a strategic move to prepare the market and allow people to anticipate what's coming in the future.
Over the next five years, Lamborghini plans to gather feedback and develop new approaches to carve out a distinctive character for its electric vehicles, ensuring they stand out in the market.
