Lamborghini discontinues production of the Miura model car.
Lamborghini Stays Firm on Miura's Legacy, Focuses on Future Models
Lamborghini, the iconic Italian supercar manufacturer, has confirmed that it will not be revisiting the legendary Miura in its modern designs. The Miura, a hallowed 1960s supercar, will remain a one-off chapter in history.
The decision not to reinterpret or revive the Miura comes amidst a packed future for Lamborghini. The brand is currently focusing on the Revuelto-based Fenomeno, limited to 29 cars, and variants of the new Temerario. The newly launched Temerario and its forthcoming spin-offs demand attention from Lamborghini, as they represent the future of the company.
Design chief Mitja Borkert has confirmed this decision, stating that while there may be demand for a modern Miura, Lamborghini will not cater to it. Borkert's design philosophy is oriented towards the future, with a focus on large windshields and minimal mirrors.
This decision may have been influenced by the success of the Countach LPI 800-4, which was resurrected by Lamborghini in 2021 but received mixed reactions. The instant sell-out and the controversy it caused among purists may have made Lamborghini wary of tinkering with other iconic models.
The Miura's long bonnet and compact stance remain rare traits as cars balloon in size. The Miura's reputation as a sacred model may have also played a role in Lamborghini's decision not to revisit it. The designer who refused to build a modern version of the Miura was Marcello Gandini.
Despite the Miura remaining parked in the past, collectors would surely queue for a car that blends the Miura's analogue thrill with today's comforts. However, it seems that Lamborghini is committed to looking forward, not back.
In the world of Lamborghini, the few-off family continues to grow, with the Revuelto-based Fenomeno and the new Temerario taking centre stage. The brand's design philosophy, its future projects, and its commitment to innovation are all clear signs that Lamborghini is a company that is moving full speed ahead.
