The New Delhi dealership joins India’s Mumbai showroom inaugurated last year.

With the openings in recent days, Lamborghini now has a presence in 45 countries, with 124 dealerships overall.

The 2013 sales network development strategy has focused on enlargement, renewal and reorganization of Lamborghini sales locations in the European market, which today represents around a third of the company's total sales.

Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini, commenting on the four recent inaugurations, said:
“Development of the sales network is one of the main strategic assets for growth of our company. Since my appointment in 2005, in the space of just nine years Lamborghini's market presence around the world has tripled. Today we are a global company, and we are aiming to be even more so. 2014 will see us commit to cutting the ribbon on five to ten new dealerships, with the objective of expanding our presence to 50 markets around the world. At the same time we will be exploring new regions, including South America where we currently only have a presence in Brazil. Our sales network must be widened even further, ready and organized for the major new products which are coming soon.”
