- The company with the raging bull says speed alone no longer defines a supercar.
- Emotion, sound, and driving dynamics are becoming just as important as acceleration.
- But the manual gearbox isn't coming back anytime soon.
There was a time when building a supercar was relatively simple: Make it ridiculously fast, give it a dramatic design, put an exotic engine behind the occupants, and charge a fortune for it. Apparently, that's no longer enough. Lamborghini believes outright speed is losing importance as even plain EVs make supercar-rivaling acceleration increasingly accessible.
