Which automotive company owns the Lamborghini brand?

Volkswagen Group owns the Lamborghini brand.

Lamborghini became part of the Volkswagen Group in 1998 after the German automotive group acquired Automobili Lamborghini. The purchase followed financial difficulties under the brand’s previous ownership and was intended to strengthen Volkswagen’s luxury and performance-car portfolio.

Audi, another Volkswagen Group company, has managed Lamborghini within the group’s premium structure. That relationship is why Audi is sometimes given as the answer, but Audi is not the ultimate parent company in this question. Lamborghini remains an Italian marque, headquartered and producing its supercars in Sant’Agata Bolognese.

Lamborghini was founded by Ferruccio Lamborghini in 1963. Famous models such as the Miura, Countach, Diablo and Aventador helped establish its identity as a maker of dramatic, high-performance sports cars. Volkswagen Group ownership does not erase that Italian heritage; it provides the corporate resources behind the brand’s modern development.
