Automobili Lamborghini was founded in 1963 by Ferruccio Lamborghini in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy. The brand began as a response to Ferruccio's dissatisfaction with Ferrari's customer service. Lamborghini became part of the Volkswagen Group in 1998 through the Audi subsidiary. The Miura (1966) is considered the world's first supercar, and the Countach (1974) defined the wedge-shaped supercar aesthetic for decades. The Urus SUV, launched in 2018, doubled Lamborghini's global sales volume and opened the brand to a significantly wider buyer base. 18 Lamborghini units were registered in Singapore in 2024.
