The next Lamborghini Aventador will be a hybrid, although it will keep its V12

The Lamborghini Aventador will remain faithful to the

V12 engine in its next generation, although it will embrace hybrid technology.
Lamborghini has confirmed that the next Lamborghini Aventador (one of the most successful models of the Italian brand) will continue to feature its iconic V12 engine and that, in addition, it will embrace hybrid technology. These new generations are scheduled for early 2020, and the move towards this technology was expected.

The use of electric technology alongside a combustion engine is a practice that brands such as Ferrari, Audi or Porsche, among others, have been carrying out in recent years on some of their best models, and it has given them very good results. Furthermore, including electric technology in the models helps meet the emissions regulations imposed in recent years.

The future changes to the new Aventador will begin to move towards hybridisation across the 3 model ranges that the Italian brand offers.

The Lamborghini Urus (the brand’s first SUV), which has already been confirmed, among other things, caused great expectation, and the new buzz generated by its announcement has encouraged Lamborghini to move forward with this idea. The Lamborghini Huracán will also embrace an engine split between a V10 and an electric part, with hybrid technologies.

In the words of the company’s CEO, Stefano Domenicali: “It is clear that we want to keep using the engine V12 in the top line of our models. What we can discuss is which would be the best engine option for the future Huracán. Of course, the V10 would be the first option, but we still have time to discuss it. The value of our brand is based on our top product. We must be able to give people always the best supercars that we are capable of creating. We are sure that one of the things we must offer in the top range of our supercars is a V12 engine, and combining it with hybrid technology will make it even more interesting and fill it with new possibilities§h49§§h50§.”
