Lamborghini is happy about its EV delay, but not because of Ferrari’s Luce backlash

Lamborghini's position here is worth taking seriously: they're not retreating from electrification out of fear, but holding a consistent line that the technology hasn't yet met their own performance and character benchmarks. That's a harder argument to dismiss than simple market hesitation, because it puts the burden on the engineering rather than the customer. The Ferrari Luce controversy gives this stance convenient timing, but Lamborghini is careful to distance itself from that narrative — they're not scoring points off a rival, they're restating a principle they've held throughout. For buyers and watchers of the supercar segment, the real question this raises is whether any manufacturer can actually define what 'ready' looks like for a car that sells on sensation as much as speed.
