Italian super car maker Lamborghini has set a new sales record for the first six months of 2016, and for the first time in the Raging Bull’s history. The company delivered 2,013 cars to customers worldwide surpassing the 2000 unit mark for the very first time. Lamborghini has delivered 416 cars in June 2016 alone.
The Lamborghini Huracan sold 1,370 units in the first six months of 2016. Sales for first two years of the Huracan after launch were up by 87 percent when compared to its predecessor the Gallardo, in the same period after launch.
On the other hand, the flagship Aventador saw 643 unit being sold. Aventador sales in the first 58 months after launch were up by 127 percent when compared to the Murcielago in the same period of time.
The largest markets for Lamborghini are USA, Japan, UK, Greater China and Germany. India has three dealerships in Mumbai, Delhi and Bengaluru. The Huracan is a hot favourite with buyers in India as well with many Huracans being seen on the roads in recent times. Lamborghini recently also launched the Huracan Spyder in India.
“Thanks to the enlargement of the Huracan family, including introduction of the Spyder and rear-wheel drive version in markets worldwide in spring this year, we were able to deliver an exceptional sales performance in the first six months of 2016,” said Stefano Domenicali, Chief Executive Officer of Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. “With a solid order bank, not only for the Huracan, but also for our V12 model the Aventador, we aim to outperform the last year’s sales record yet again.”
Sales are expected to increase by a big margin once the Lamborghini Urus SUV is launched.
