Lamborghini: Combustion engines will live “as long as possible”

Lamborghini has reaffirmed its commitment to internal combustion engines (ICE), even as the auto industry shifts toward electrification. The brand’s chief technical officer, Rouven Mohr, says the Italian marque will keep producing combustion-powered cars “for as long as possible.”

In an interview with CarExpert, Mohr made it clear that Lamborghini isn’t ready to say goodbye to petrol engines just yet. He emphasized that ICEs remain at the core of what defines Lamborghini’s soul — emotional performance, thrilling sound, and visceral driving experiences.

While other luxury automakers are phasing out fossil fuels, Lamborghini is taking a hybrid-first approach. Mohr stated the company still has “a lot of ideas” for keeping combustion relevant, even amid increasingly strict global emissions regulations.

Lamborghini’s current hybrid lineup already demonstrates this philosophy. The new Urus SE SUV combines a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 with electric assistance to produce 789 horsepower and 701 lb-ft of torque. Its new supercar sibling, the Temerario, pushes out an astonishing 907 horsepower and 590 lb-ft.

Meanwhile, the flagship Revuelto, which debuted last year, delivers a staggering 1,001 hp thanks to its naturally aspirated V12 paired with three electric motors. It’s Lamborghini’s boldest hybrid yet, and a sign that performance will not be compromised in the electrified age.

The Italian carmaker is also developing its first fully electric model, expected in 2029, a delay from its earlier 2028 target. Based on the Lanzador concept, the EV will likely be a 2+2 grand tourer aimed at preserving Lamborghini’s heritage of bold design and thrilling dynamics.

Despite the electrification roadmap, Lamborghini insists combustion is not dead, at least not yet. And for fans of roaring engines and old-school driving passion, that’s a powerful message.
