People at the center. This is the philosophy with which Automobili Lamborghini dedicates a video to its employees to celebrate the company’s 60th anniversary. A history that has seen incredible achievements, innovations and breakthroughs, all with one common denominator: human capital. The many successes attained would not have been possible without a group of people united in the desire to achieve specific goals, thanks to their skills, passion, and love for the brand and attention to detail, with the determination to offer all fans the absolute best products on the market. With this video, the company wants to celebrate and thank all the people who, day by day and throughout these 60 years, have been and continue to be committed to making Lamborghini cars true global icons. Because “Lamborghini is everyone who has shaped it.”
Sixty years ago, in an area that at the time was open countryside, construction of the Automobili Lamborghini factory began. The company was established on May 6, 1963, realizing Ferruccio Lamborghini’s dream of becoming a manufacturer of sports cars, an industry back then dominated by just a few brands.Right from the start, the founder and his very young engineers showed a passion for innovation and a desire to disrupt the dogmas of the sports car world, which were truly groundbreaking and led to a radical revolution. These values, which still form the cornerstone of the company today, would lead to the birth of legendary cars such as the Miura, a car which coined the term “supercar” and that has since inspired the entire automotive industry with its spirit and its styling. Over the years, Automobili Lamborghini has continued to evolve, creating icons of unique style, technology and performance, inspiring entire generations and millions of people by sharing its DNA and the values on which it was founded.On the occasion of its 60th anniversary, Automobili Lamborghini is organizing a series of events worldwide, each unique but all engaging customers and their Lamborghinis; the official Lamborghini Clubs; and the dealerships and fans around the world.
