Lamborghini verkauft 2023 so viele Autos wie nie
Der italienische Sportwagenhersteller Lamborghini hat im vergangenen Jahr so viele Autos verkauft wie nie. Erstmals sei die Marke von 10.000 Einheiten geknackt worden, erklärte das Unternehmen aus der Nähe von Bologna am Donnerstag. Das waren 9,5 Prozent mehr als im Vorjahr. Der Umsatz stieg um 12,1 Prozent auf 2,66 Milliarden Euro. Besonders erfolgreich war der Geländewagen Urus.
Das Betriebsergebnis fiel mit 723 Millionen Euro sogar 17,8 Prozent besser aus als im Vorjahr, wie das Unternehmen ausführte. Der Autobauer, der zum Volkswagen-Konzern gehört, konnte seine Gewinnmarge so auf 27,2 Prozent ausweiten. Das gute Ergebnis zeige, dass "unsere Entscheidungen und Visionen richtig waren", erklärte Unternehmenschef Stephan Winkelmann.
Die verbleibende Produktion der Benzinmotor-Versionen des Urus und des Sportwagens Huracan ist den Angaben zufolge bereits vollständig ausverkauft. Ende 2024 werden sie durch neue Hybrid-Versionen ersetzt. 2028 will Lamborghini erstmals ein reines E-Auto auf den Markt bringen.
