The Life of Ferruccio Lamborghini: The Man, The Legend, The Cars

Avatar photoSports Car Digest

April 28, 2021, marks the 105th anniversary of the birth of the founder of Automobili Lamborghini, Ferruccio Lamborghini. Ferruccio was not only instrumental in establishing the company in 1963, but his unrelenting desire to improve and innovate was the inspiration for two of its most iconic models: the Miura and Countach.  

Upon the sale of his company in 1973-1974, it had already cemented its position as one of the most admired and most successful manufacturers globally. The company continued his legacy of continuous innovation and challenging itself, a major factor setting the company apart.
