The 59-year-old executive said it “would be an easier leap for us” to keep the internal combustion engine alive and make it run on synthetic fuels rather than installing electric motors and a battery pack. He believes there will come a time when performance-oriented EVs will be more agile than equivalent ICE models by taking advantage of improved battery energy density. That would make the battery packs smaller and therefore less heavy.<\/p>\n
Although the second-gen Urus and the production-ready Lanzador will be sold strictly as EVs, Lamborghini is in no rush to phase out the combustion engine in its sports cars. Winkelmann\u00a0argued that on a global scale, it makes more sense in terms of lowering emissions to focus on e-fuel scalability since he believes there’ll will still be billions of ICE cars on the road in 2035.<\/p>\n
The head honcho admitted Lamborghini won’t be first to come out with an electric supercar. When the time comes to roll out a high-performance EV, Winkelmann\u00a0said it\u2019ll be the best one on the market.\u00a0That won’t happen anytime soon as the Revuelto and Huracan successor are going to have a life cycle of eight or nine years, he added. It means both are expected to stick around until 2030 or 2031.<\/p>\n
