Serving up something for all the sports cars nuts today. If you remember we released a short trends alert back in June (download PDF above)
Basically our report makes reference to a big SHAKE-UP coming for some of the big auto companies and how with skyrocketing prices at the pump we will see some big changes to cars manufacturers, and their modifications soon. Well how about news reports today that …
Lamborghini is jumping on the hybrid wagon by announcing that the Gallardo would be available in Hybrid form in 2015. It will work in the same way that a Prius does: at slow speed, the electric engine will take over (traffic, city…) and the gas engine will be used in more demanding situations. Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann confirmed that his company would not produce an all-electric car at the moment without saying why. Interestingly, Ferrari has already announced a Hybrid model, schedule to appear in 2015 as well.
I am guessing this is going to make these sexy machines a whole lot more affordable too. Who knows? But I am sure there are car nuts, big kids and all those middle aged men experiencing a mid life crisis foaming at the mouth right now.
Maybe the chances of owning a brand new Lamborghini is one step closer but it is interesting that even the top European cars are rethinking the designs and modifications of their cars (as we have previously forecast) This is a clear indication that many of the cheaper car manufacturers will come in and do the same.
We could even go one step further and say hello again to companies like Gm motors that collapsed. If they are able to join forces with someone and make a much lighter and affordable car, then I see no reason why they can’t rise back from the dead so to speak.
Even thought 2015 is a while away, I am sure we are going to see evidence of big BIG changes such as this come into the real economy much sooner. It’s all part of the new world we will live in when the credit crisis can finally be laid to rest.
