2022 was a successful year for Lamborghini

2022 ended and car manufacturers publish results when it comes to sales. After Rolls-Royce, who achieved a record sale of over 6,000 vehicles around the world and Bugatti who produced and submitted 80 cars last year, Lamborghini also made a record sale of 9,242 cars.

2023 Lamborghini Urus S

The largest number of Lamborghini models were sold in the United States (2,721 copies). In Europe, the largest markets were Germany and the United Kingdom, and with increasing sales Lamborghini has expanded its sales network to 180 sales salons in 53 countries.

After selling 8,405 vehicles in 2021, Lamborghini recorded a sales growth of 10 percent last year. Of course, Lamborghini Urus was a star and was sold in 5,376 copies, which is a growth of 7 percent. Huracan was delivered in 3,133 copies, while Lamborghini Aventador, whose last copy was produced in the middle of last year, sold in 753 copies.

Speaking of the future, at the beginning of the last year, Lamborghini Ceo Stephan Winkelmann said they will offer their first plug-in hybrid model in 2023. Thus, the honor of being the last Lamborghini with an internal combustion engine went to 2023 Huracan Sterrato, which was premiered in December at the Art Basel Festival in Miami (USA).

The last Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae sold for $ 1.6 million

Lamborghini’s decision that, from 2024, all its models will get a hybrid version, meant that some models will be produced for the last time. So the last Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae was sold before it left the production line.

Lamborghini recently entered the world of NFT, so the price of $ 1,603,125, for which the Aventador was sold, included not only the car but also NFT. The Italian company, in collaboration with artists Christ Kim and Steve Aoki and INVNT GROUP, has created a unique NFT that contains a digital version of a real car. When designing the car, a minimalist approach was chosen to make the car as unique as NFT.

The last Aventador was finished in a mix of Nethuns blue and Noctis black. The black interior with orange details fits perfectly with the combination of exterior colors. It is interesting that the car, apart from the workers, was seen only by the buyer.

Lamborghini also prepared a gift for the customer in the form of various types of VIP treatments, which includes an exclusive insight into the future of the model, activities with a local distributor, a private tour of the Lamborghini Museum, and a meeting with NFT artists.

The cargo ship Felicity Ace has sunk

Felicity Ace has sunk. This information was confirmed by MOL Ship Management spokesman Pat Adamson, who said that due to weather conditions, rough seas and high waves, the ship leaned to the side and sank in 9,840 feet (3,000 meters) deep sea.

It has long been believed that some cars survived the fire on a ship carrying 3,965 vehicles. Now every hope is lost. As a reminder, the ship carried 1,100 Porsches, 189 Bentleys, while the rest were Volkswagen, Audi and Lamborghini, including electric models. Among the cars was an unknown number of Lamborghini Aventador models, which Lamborghini recently stopped producing.

Recently, Lamborghini CEO in America Andrea Baldi said that the company hopes that at least some Aventador models have survived, and that it is possible to restore them. If this is not the case, they will have to produce new ones. It is estimated that owners will have to wait at least six months for their Lamborghini Aventador cars.

Volkswagen and Porsche have not commented on the current situation.

The cause of the fire, which destroyed a cargo estimated at more than $ 400 million, is still unknown. It has been confirmed that the damage to the cars is covered by insurance.
