Sant'Agata Bolognese, 26. January 2016 – Automobili Lamborghini just ended 2015 with exceptional results. The all-time record of 3,245 vehicles sold worldwide comes with a rapid growth in workforce, which now stands at 1,300 employees.
More than 150 assembly line workers, technicians and highly qualified specialists have been hired recently with open-ended contracts, bringing the total of permanent employees taken on over the past five years to more than 600.
Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini, commented: “Lamborghini is experiencing strong, steady growth in sales and also in its workforce. We are getting ready for groundbreaking changes with the introduction of our third model in 2018, which points to stable, sustainable growth for our company. This is why our investments in human resources are more important than ever, as we continue to focus on excellence and continuous improvements in this new phase of the company's future.”
The growth trend is destined to continue this year, with equally significant numbers. Since January, 30 new production line workers have joined the company thanks to the system introduced by the new supplementary company agreement. Other new hirings during the year will include technicians working in Quality, R&D, Purchasing, Industrial and Project Management divisions, as well as technical production staff.
The recruitment drive supports the development phase of the Urus: the super sports SUV and the third Lamborghini model. Launched in 2018, the Urus will take the company into a new era. Not only will the production site double in size – from the existing 80,000 m2 to 150,000 m2 – but 500 further new staff will be taken on. 180 of these new contracts have already been finalized. Investments in human resources are an important part of the company's corporate responsibility strategy, the aim of which is to create value through a responsible approach to the world and the areas in which Lamborghini operates, helping to ensure sustainable economic and social development with a constant ecological focus to preserve the planet for current and future generations.

Sant'Agata Bolognese, – Over the course of the past fiscal year 2015 (31.12.2015) Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. achieved historic highs in the main corporate figures. Global sales of Lamborghini super sports cars increased by 28% from 2,530 to 3,245 units. This growth represents not only an increase in volumes compared to the previous year, but a considerable gain. In fact, the company exceeded its previous threshold of more than 3,000 units sold worldwide.
Turnover increased exponentially from 629 to 872 million euros. This represents an increase of 39%, due to strong sales growth generally and a substantial contribution to total sales worldwide from high-value V12 Lamborghini Aventador derivatives.
Lamborghini is earning profits and continues on a sustained growth path. All new projects are financed out of the cash-flow.
“In 2015 we achieved business growth for the fifth year in a row and historic highs with key figures. We have also made wide-reaching strategic decisions that will facilitate the company's mid and long-term success in global luxury automobile markets,” says Lamborghini President and CEO, Stephan Winkelmann.
The Huracán LP 610-4 made 2015 the most successful year in history for deliveries of V10-engined Lamborghini models. In its first full year on the market, a total of 2,242 Huracán units were delivered to customers. In the first 18 months following its market introduction, Huracán deliveries were 70% higher than those of its predecessor, the Gallardo, in the same period after market introduction.
Deliveries of coupé and roadster versions of the twelve-cylinder Aventador LP 700-4, as well as the new Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce, amounted to a total of 1,003 units. The Aventador's success story was also demonstrated by delivery numbers in the 52 months following market introduction, with an increase of 124% over sales of its Murciélago predecessor within the same time period.

Automobili Lamborghini inaugurates new trigeneration and district heating systems, two of the main projects that lead to the Sant'Agata Bolognese company's attainment of CO2-neutral certification for the entire plant.
The certification under the “Carbon Neutrality” program is the first in the world awarded to a company by DNV GL (Det Norske Veritas Germanischer Lloyd), one of the leading environmental risk management classification, verification and service companies in the world. Automobili Lamborghini achieves this significant goal within 2015 by reducing and compensating for CO2 emissions inside the production site.
The inauguration event celebrates the attainment of a primary goal within Lamborghini's environmental sustainability strategy, which was initiated several years ago with the completion of a large number of projects regarding the plant and Lamborghini cars.
“Sustainability is one of our company objectives and we subscribe to a strong undertaking of environmental responsibility towards our stakeholders and the area where the company operates,” said Stephan Winkelmann, Automobili Lamborghini President and CEO. “The new plant and the certification we have earned today are part of our sustainable growth program. Our goal is to keep the plant CO2-neutral, even after the expansion that will take place in the upcoming years with the introduction of the third Lamborghini model.”
The inauguration was held in the presence of the Minister of the Environment, Land and Sea, Gian Luca Galletti, and several government authorities.
“Automobili Lamborghini is the perfect example of how business can be done while respecting the environment, and I would like to see this model exported to other regions of this country. Here, profitability and sustainability are going hand in hand. Manufacturing in Italy is a synonym for quality and this is essential for our region: we need to think of the environment as a big opportunity for the development of businesses. I believe the companies that do understand this new industrial culture will be the winners of the 21st century,” comments Gian Luca Galletti.
