Sharing the company's product roadmap, he said, "We are introducing our fully hybridised product line. We will release in one week time (globally) the new Huracan successor, which will also be a hybrid. We believe that car will be a success for our Indian customers." 


Scardaoni further said, "This is because we know that the (Indian) government is working on new policies for hybrids. We hope we can also enjoy the benefits of those policies on our cars. It is still work in progress. We believe this would be ideal for a brand like Lamborghini and have even more growth in India." 


Bullish on the Indian market, he said Lamborghini's growth here is also related to the growth in India, which is the fastest-growing economy in the world.


The company on Friday launched the plug-in hybrid version of its flagship SUV Urus with prices starting at Rs 4.57 crore (ex-showroom).
