Lamborghini adjusts manufacture of hybrid supercars

The Italian manufacturer of luxury sports cars Lamborghini plans to begin release of ecologically friendly models.

As the main chief executive of the company has told to German edition Automobilewoche, the first hybrid Lamborghini will appear in the market in 2015 — simultaneously with a hybrid of the competing mark Ferrari.

Unlike Mercedes-Benz, promising to start manufacture completely electric SLS Gullwing, Lamborghini it will be limited to a "soft" hybrid. The low-power electromotor will feed auxiliary systems of the car and to provide movement on small speed, and high-grade sports dynamics, as before, will provide mighty V10 and V12.
