Wait&See As we've heard that 2022 was Lamborghini’s final year of non-electrified model launches and in order to move into the realm of fully Electric Vehicles (EV), so the Italian supercar manufacturer, Automobili-Lamborghini S.p.A. hinted that it is working on a 2+2 Grand Tourer (GT) model which would be projected as its first fully electric vehicle, and is planned for release in 2028.
As the Lamborghini CEO hinted, that a 2+2 grand tourer model will be the company's first full EV (as a complementary illustration only, the Lamborghini LPI 910-4 Asterion Concept). (Picture from: Autoevolution) |
As the automaker intended also to add a fourth model to help the
company's goal of reducing the use of carbon emissions by 80 percent. According to Lamborghini CEO, Stephan Winkelmann, that the fourth model will complete its current lineup could be a 2+2 GT car which has not yet produced (until today), (of course you still remember that this Italian automaker had launched a similar car called the Lamborghini LPI 910-4 Asterion in 2014 even though it was only a concept).
"It will be a new style, because what is missing in the current lineup is the 2+2 GT, and I think it will be a great addition to the two super sports cars and an SUV," said Winkelmann, as quoted from Motor1, on Thursday, 30 March.

The prospected 2+2 GT model will adopt fully electric power, which will likely rival the next generation Porsche 911 EV. The car would join into a line-up of other fully electric models coming from other major marques.
Unfortunately, Lamborghini does not want to reveal about the specifications or design. However, this 2+2 GT style car is said will adopt the Revuelto style. However this car would not be a replacement for the Huracan or Revuelto because Lamborghini says that the technology will not be enough to match the performance of the two top-class supercars.

Even so, there is a possibility that Lamborghini will adopt the axial-flux motor technology that has been embedded in the Revuelto which will increase power and efficiency. While for other models, such as its SUV model, Lamborghini Urus which said it will receive a significant update next year by transforming into a PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle).
In the other hand, Lamborghini is also preparing a successor to the Huracan which powers by electrical motor combined with a petrol engine. Then, there is the Revuelto whose name has just been released to replace the Aventador which is the first PHEV from the manufacturer bearing the raging bull logo.
And related video above is the Lamborghini Asterion intended only to be a complementary illustration. Finally, is it true that the first Lamborghini EV was 2+2 GT? Well, for sure we can only wait until the time comes in 2028. Yes, we'll wait and see.😎 *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | MOTOR1 | AUTOEVOLUTION | WINNIPEGSUN ]
