Unveiling the Future: The Lamborghini Electric Revolution


For Lamborghini, the roar of a V12 isn't just a sound; it’s a soul. Transitioning that DNA into the silent world of electricity is a challenge the Italian marque is tackling with its "Direzione Cor Tauri" roadmap, a plan that balances high-voltage performance with the brand's legendary emotional appeal.

As of early 2026, the "Electric Revolution" at Sant’Agata Bolognese is moving through a strategic three-phase transformation. read more

1. The Hybrid Bridge (Now – 2027)

Lamborghini has successfully electrified its entire current lineup. Rather than jumping straight to battery-only power, they’ve used Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) technology to enhance performance while meeting stricter emissions rules.

Key Highlight

Revuelto

6.5L V12 + 3 Electric Motors

$1,015\text{ CV}$

The first HPEV (High Performance Electrified Vehicle).

Temerario

4.0L V8 Twin-Turbo + 3 Motors

$907\text{ hp}$

Replaces the Huracán; features a $10,000\text{ rpm}$ redline.

Urus SE

4.0L V8 Twin-Turbo + PHEV System

$800\text{ CV}$

Reduces emissions by 80% compared to the ICE version.

2. The First Full EV: The Lanzador (2029)

The crown jewel of Lamborghini’s electric future is the Lanzador. Originally planned for 2028, its release has been recalibrated to 2029 to ensure the market and technology are fully mature.

·         The Concept: A "Ultra GT" with a 2+2 seating arrangement and high ground clearance—blending the sleekness of a supercar with the versatility of an SUV.

·         Performance: Expected to produce over one megawatt of power ($1,341+\text{ hp}$), utilizing two electric motors and advanced torque vectoring.

·         Sustainability: The interior features "regenerated carbon," synthetic yarn made from recycled ocean plastic, and sustainably tanned leather.

Note: Recent strategic shifts suggest Lamborghini is remaining flexible. CEO Stephan Winkelmann has hinted that if market demand for pure EVs remains flat, the Lanzador could potentially debut as a high-performance hybrid instead.

3. The Long-Term Vision (2030 and Beyond)

Lamborghini’s goal isn't just to make cars; it's to achieve total carbon neutrality by 2050.

·         Electric Super SUV: A fully electric successor to the Urus is targeted for roughly 2030–2035.

·         Synthetic Fuels (e-Fuels): Lamborghini is actively exploring carbon-neutral synthetic fuels. This could allow their flagship supercars (like the Revuelto successor) to keep the internal combustion engine alive while technically operating with net-zero emissions.

Summary of the Strategy

The "Electric Revolution" at Lamborghini is less of a sudden spark and more of a controlled burn. They are prioritizing driving emotion over being "first to market," ensuring that even without the vibration of a piston, the "raging bull" spirit remains unmistakable.
