Lamborghini sees 60% sales growth in India

Italian super sports carmaker Automobili Lamborghini expects sales to grow around 60% this year in India, a country which it sees breaking into its top 15 global markets in the next four to five years, a senior company official said Thursday. The company, which sold 45 units in India last year, on Thursday launched its new Huracan Evo super sports car priced at ₹3.73 crore in India, the first country where it has commercially launched the vehicle. Lamborghini India head Sharad Agarwal said, when the company launched luxury SUV Urus in the beginning of 2018, it was looking at two-fold increase in sales over “our 2016 achievement in next three years, but we could do 2x in the year of the launch itself”. “If we look at our (2018) achievement, keeping 2016 as base, then we should look at achieving three-fold in 2019,” Agarwal said.
