The future of Lamborghini in jeopardy? Volkswagen is considering selling it

Lamborghini was experiencing the best period in its history in the run-up to coronavirus, when sales of the Urus SUV were growing rapidly. Nevertheless, its future may now be jeopardized.

Today, the Volkswagen Group is considered the largest vehicle manufacturer in the world, with nine passenger car brands, one motorcycle manufacturer and other brands for commercial vehicles, trucks and buses. The expansion took place mainly in the era of Ferdinand Piëch, who built this colossus mainly at the turn of the millennium. But there is no such megalomaniac in the lead, so there is a risk that the VW Group will start to crumble.

It has long been said that the current chairman of the board of directors, Herbert Diess, is not as much a fan of supercars as his predecessors, and so there are increasing reports today that the VW Group could get rid of some of its super sports brands.

Speculation intensified last month when it became clear that Volkswagen Group could sell Bugatti to Croatian electric supersport manufacturer Rimac. Although there is talk behind the scenes that this move would in fact increase VW Group’s stake in Rimac, in which Porsche already operates today, news of sales of some VW Group brands has not stopped, on the contrary.

The Automotive News Europe server now claims, directly with reference to unnamed members of the VW Group management, that the German carmaker will really deal with the future of Bugatti under its wings. And that’s not all, in November the management also wants to discuss the future of Lamborghini and Ducati.
