Lamborghini global turnover at 508m Euros

The turnover may not sound very impressive because this Italian super sports car manufacturer is a niche player in the global automotive industry. The company delivered 2121 cars worldwide in the whole of 2013 as compared to 2083 units the previous year.

The company announced that its profitability continued despite ongoing high investments in R&D and factory premises. More than 20pc of the total turnover of the company is invested in research and development. Of the 2121 cars delivered globally, it was the Aventador model which comprised the maximum at 1001 deliveries. Thus, it was an all-time high in V12 sales.

The 2013 sales figures are outperforming the market trends in the super sports car segment. The turnover increased by 8pc from 469 million Euros to 508 million Europs. In 2013, 1,001 units of the top model, the V12 powered Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 were sold. This is a record for V12 powered Lamborghini models and translates to a 9pc increase from 922 units sold in 2012.

In its final year of production, the evergreen Lamborghini Gallardo recorded remarkably stable deliveries of 1,120 units following 2012 when 1,161 Gallardo were sold. With 14,022 units sold over its entire lifecycle, this makes the Gallardo the bestselling Lamborghini of all time to date.
