Lamborghini, record deliveries and turnover and a stop to electrics
10,747 cars delivered, sales at 3.2 billion up 3.3%. Margins down due to Trump's tariffs and the falling dollar

Best sales in history and record deliveries. Lamborghini, despite market turbulence caused mainly by Trump's tariffs, closes a record-breaking 2025. The 10,747 cars delivered, in addition to being the sales ceiling, is a result that pushes the Sant'Agata Bolognese company for the second consecutive time over the three billion turnover mark: 3.20 billion, a growth of 3.3% compared to 2024.
Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman and CEO of Lamborghini, does not hide his satisfaction: 'In a challenging global environment we have continued to grow, protecting profitability and strengthening brand value. Our strategy is clear: discipline, long-term vision and product focus. This balance allows us to turn external challenges into consolidation levers and to continue creating sustainable value'.
Only the operating result was below expectations. Winkelmann attributes the reasons for this to exogenous factors, exchange rates and tariffs, and the inclusion in the 2025 financial year of the effects of the Cor Tauri electrification strategy backtrack. 'The operating result was impacted by the unfavourable yen and dollar exchange rate development and the introduction of US tariffs. But the impact was largely absorbed thanks to an improved product mix and careful cost control'.
On tariffs in the United States, Winkelmann explains that the increase from 2.5% to 15% was only partly absorbed by a 10% increase in list prices. The difference negatively impacted margins in the United States, which account for 30% of Lamborghini's market. A greater impact than, for example, the Russian market, around 3% of the total, when it was affected by the embargo for the war in Ukraine.
According to Winkelmann, however, the change in product strategy will pay off in the long run. The abandonment of the Cor Tauri electrification programme and the push towards hybrid models has already begun to bear fruit thanks to a greater incidence of Revuelto. The weight of the customisation programme is also significant. In 2025, 94% of the cars delivered were in fact tailor made in at least one element, confirming the programme as a central lever of value creation and a decisive factor in revenue growth.
