Lamborghini makes new-age plans to launch electric supercars


In a recent statement, Lamborghini revealed that it wanted to start the production of electric supercars that run without the use of lithium-ion batteries. The Italian carmaker was the first to invent the concept of ‘supercars’ that were sleek, stylish and super-fast. The company now wants to venture into the modern ages by upping their innovation and manufacturing cars that are emission-free and in turn friendlier towards the environment. They have been working with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on possible energy storage ideas to power the vehicles and are now in deliberation between a carbon battery and a supercapacitor.
"A supercapacitor with the same power is three times lighter than the normal lithium-ion battery. This is important because, in terms of packaging and in terms of weight, it gives me a big advantage in a super sports car.It's an insane sounding technological long shot, but this technology could dramatically change the world of high performance cars,” was a statement that was received from Maurizio Reggiani, Lamborghini's chief technical officer.
Volkswagen, the sister company of Lamborghini, has recently unveiled their first electric car in Nuremberg last month. The company is yet to find a form of battery or energy source that matches the speed and performance required from a Lamborghini make.
