Lamborghini’s two mainstream models are Countach and Diablo. The Countach model was first displayed at the 1973 Geneva World Auto Show.
Ferruccio Lamborghini built a reputation for his brand by manufacturing a series of tractors, oil burners and air conditioning systems in post-war Italy, and was founded in Sant 'Agata, Italy in 1963 own car factory. It is said that one time Lamborghini, a sports car fan, planned to meet with Enzo Ferrari to make some suggestions for improving its products. Ferrari, however, had no intention of listening to a tractor manufacturer. Although there is no verification, this anecdote has always been circulated in the circle. Whatever the truth, the first Lamborghini sports car - the Lamborghini 350 GTV - was launched a year later, marking the beginning of an amazing road to success. No one could have imagined that some of the world's biggest celebrities would compete to buy Lamborghinis in the future, including Frank Sinatra and Paul McCartney. All chronicles of the most successful sports cars of all times include Lamborghini's two famous sports cars, the "Countach" and the "Miura".
After a series of ups and downs, Ferruccio Lamborghini finally retired from the company in 1972. Lamborghini (both as a person and as a company) has never lacked imagination, but it has always lacked solid financial support. In fact, Lamborghini went bankrupt in 1980 and the Italian businessmen Milam brothers bought the company. Later, Lamborghini also changed hands several times, including Chrysler Automobile Company. But they show no real enthusiast concern for Lamborghini. Lamborghini and Audi actually have a long history, having previously collaborated on aluminum chassis construction. This relationship finally became a marriage in 1998, when Lamborghini joined the Volkswagen Group. With funding from Audi, Lamborghini has its own management team to operate. Under Audi's management, the factory launched the Murciélago concept car and the Gallardo in 2003. This fusion of cultures (an exotic carmaker and a global automaker, a group of passionate Italians and a group of proud Germans) was not easy. The result is a completely revamped and revitalized Lamborghini. Audi is able and able to provide substantial technical support, while the financial support of the Volkswagen Group also allows Lamborghini to pursue new product development, which was not possible before.
The proof of the renaissance is clear: after all these years, Lamborghini has introduced two completely new models at once, its factory facilities have been expanded and updated, and it recently built a new design institute. Additionally, the Lamborghini Museum has begun opening its doors. If you go to Modina, you must visit the Lamborghini Museum.
The museum specialists from the "Audi History and Culture" department have used new methods to highlight the theme of the exhibition. It focuses on the launch of the current Murciélago and Gallardo sports cars and their impact on Lamborghini's present and future. The screening is divided into four themes: including background information on founder Ferruccio Lamborghini; his performance during his tenure; interspersed with new chapters from the early 1970s until the acquisition by Audi in 1998. The entire content closely revolves around the theme of this very commemorative exhibition - "The 'Running Bull' logo has accompanied Lamborghini for 40 years."
In Italy and even around the world, Lamborghini is weird, legendary, and pitiful. As a die-hard Ferrari fan, he was still manufacturing tractors in 1959, as well as air conditioners and radiators. Lamborghini originally wanted to establish an aircraft company, but was severely rejected by the Italian government. Lamborghini was a huge Ferrari fan and owned four Ferrari sports cars, bought of course with the money he earned from making tractor radiator air conditioners. Lamborghini's favorite Ferrari 250 broke down, so he complained to the Ferrari sports car manufacturing company about gearbox problems, but was rejected.
Out of anger, Lamborghini denounced Enzo Ferrari, the father of Ferrari. Enzo Ferrari's reply was even more shocking: I don't need a tractor maker to tell me how to build a sports car! (The early Ferraris were as awesome as they are now. They put all their energy into racing. Generally, civilian cars are just to make money to subsidize racing research and development. Civilian-level Ferraris have average road handling performance, but the owners are not satisfied. Don't dare to complain, because you may be banned from buying a Ferrari. It seems that everyone has a bitch).
The aloof Lamborghini was ridiculed by someone he respected, and the consequences were quite serious: he sold four of his treasured Ferrari sports cars and went bankrupt. "Lamborghini Sports Car Manufacturing Co., Ltd." was not far away from Ferrari. Newly built in Sant agata bolohgess only 15 kilometers from the capital Modena.
Lamborghini then resorted to unscrupulous means - poaching a large number of talents from Ferrari and Maserati, including the famous Giotto Bizzarini, the designer of the Ferrari 250GTO, who was the leader of the Italian car industry in the 20th century. The influence is even higher than that of Enzo and Freiken. The 3.5-liter 360-horsepower V-12 engine he designed became the flag for Lamborghini to challenge Ferrari. Bersalini was also quite individual. The reason he betrayed Ferrari was that Enzo Ferrari refused to let him use an independent rear suspension. Years later, Enzo Ferrari regretted letting Bersalini go!
On October 26, 1963, at the Turin Auto Show in Italy, Lamborghini launched his first work, the 350GTV (chassis number 0100), with a top speed of 280 kilometers per hour, and only one was produced. Finally, a devil was born, a devil who took a unique path. This devil made Italy's most prestigious design master Gandini devote his life to it.
Mr. Lamborghini passed away in 1993.
