    Pretty sure Lamborghini took one look at BYD’s three thousand horsepower supercar eating up the test track at 300 miles an hour and just quietly decided to pivot reinforce “the feel”.

    Edit: “reinforce” is probably a better word than “pivot” , so I’ll use that, just so all those lambo apologists out there don’t have to post “iTS aLwAyS bEeN aBoUT tHe fEeL.”

        Lamborghini? The tractor company? Of course it was always about the feel.

        It’s just being heavily reinforced now that even the Volvo in my garage can quietly beat them to the next set of lights.

        An electric/hybrid powertrain would have made them relevant again, and they could likely get by on style even if performance is a bit lacking.Sad that they’re not choosing to do that.

      Lambo has always been about the feel. You wanna flex? Show me an '80’s Corolla! (This hate isn’t directed at you as much as the car community as a whole)
