Troppo caos» Dal 2018 la Lamborghini comincerà a produrre un modello innovativo. «Il mercato premierà la qualità». il BOLOGNA TREMILADUECENTO auto vendute nel 2015. Nu­ meri importanti, spinti dal successo di modelli co­ me la Huracan e la Ventador. «Ma abbiamo program- ni che prevedono di espandere la nostra presenza sul nercato - dice Stefano Domenicali, dal 15 marzo al vertice della azienda nata nel 1963 -. C'è un robusto piano di investimenti e puntiamo ad ampliare la gam­ ma». L'anno di svolta sarà il 2018, quando dalle officine di Sant'Agata Bolognese uscirà il primo Suv con il mar­ chio del Toro. Segnerà l'ingresso in una fascia di mer­ cato meno tradizionale, in linea con le sollecitazioni della clientela. «Larga parte della nostra produzione vie­ ne collocata all'estero - spiega Domenicali - La penetrazio­ ne del marchio, nella fascia alta dei consumatori, è molto for­ te. La Lamborghini è sempre stata un oggetto particolare e la sua altissima qualità, in termini di prestazioni e di efficienza, non sarà minimamente intaccata dalle scelte che faremo». La specializzazione della mano d'opera, dalla componente crea­ tiva a quella manifatturiera, è un valore aggiunto, il cuore di una tradizione. «Attualmente i dipendenti sono 1.300 - aggiun­ ge Domenicali -. Ma aumenteranno, non solo per il Suv, che Audi ha fortissimamente voluto trovasse ospitalità in Italia, nel­ la terra dei motori. Sono fiero di avere contribuito a questa solu­ zione quando ero nel mio ufficio a Ingolstadt». NON SEMBRA invece praticabile, almeno non in tempi medi, un ritorno del Toro sulle piste della Formula Uno.

Along with specific components in the cockpit and body, the colors heighten the car’s motorsport feeling. Audi is unveiling the exclusive, high-performance sports car for the first time, at the New York International Auto Show. The car is being built in a limited run of 200 and can be ordered from May onward. The Audi R8 is the brand’s sporty spearhead – on the road and on the race track. Its DNA is endowed with know-how earned from the many success stories at Audi Sport, particularly in endurance racing. “In 2016, we had the most successful year in the history of Audi Sport customer racing, our customer sport department,” said Stephan Winkelmann, CEO of Audi Sport GmbH. “With the R8 LMS we brought home 24 titles, scored 85 race victories and tallied up over 100 other podium finishes.” And now the Audi Sport Edition is bringing more motorsport emotion to the production car realm with its expressive interplay of the colors silver, red and black, and exclusive interior equipment.
