Lamborghini R&D boss proud of UK feedback on Huracan Performante

Lamborghini R&D boss Maurizio Reggiani says he's most proud of the plaudits given by UK critics to the Huracán Performante. This, he says, is because the UK has the richest history of aerodynamic development in the car industry and it was a "big achievement" for Lamborghini to show that "there are other ways to achieve performance, not just with aerodynamics".

Seat might not have shown any electric car concepts yet but that "doesn't mean we are not prepared", according to boss Luca de Meo. "We will have access to the [electric] platforms the VW Group is developing." A Seat electric SUV is due by 2020.
