Lamborghini Logo

Automobile Lamborghini S.p.A, commonly referred to as Lamborghini, is the Italian manufacturer of expensive luxury sports cars, known for producing high-performance, stylish and high speed and two-door, two-seated sport cars that serve as a great competition to Ferrari.

The company is named after its founder Ferruccio Lamborghini who was a successful tractor manufacturer before he got interested in sports cars. It was his interest in sports cars that made him buy many different high-performance cars including both Maseratis and Ferraris. He founded his own company in 1963, which used to be an independent company, but now it is a subsidiary of the German company Audi AG. Lamborghini went bankrupt in 1978 and was sold to Chrysler a long time before Audi AG became the sole owner of the company in 1988.

Lamborghini has rolled out models such as the four-seat Espada and various V8 sports cars, but it is their mid engine super cars that have gained significant popularity.

The Lamborghini logo stands for the founder’s zodiac sign- the Taurus (a bull). Ferruccio Lamborghini’s love of bullfights is depicted in the logo and Lamborghini car models get their names from famous bulls.

Shape of the Lamborghini Logo:
The logo of Lamborghini represents coat of arms and shows a gold snorting bull on the fore ground. The bull signifies stability, strength and determination. Lamborghini logo has become famous and recognized through out the world.

Color of the Lamborghini Logo:
Amusingly the choice of an animal and the colors used on the Lamborghini logo (gold on a black background, and a charging bull) are suspiciously similar to the Ferrari logo (a black horse on a yellow background). It is believed that this was no accident on the part of Lamborghini, who had a long standing rivalry with Ferrari.
