Inspiration Story: Ferrucio Lamborghini

Ferrucio Lamborghini ‪‎


Ferrucio was originally a farmer who made tractors. His business was very successful and he was among the most wealthy in Italy. He owned Ferrari among other super cars. The Ferrari‬ used to give him constant trouble. Being a mechanic, he tried to fix the problem and found out that his Ferrari had the same clutch as used in one of his tractors.


“All my Ferraris had clutch problems. When you drove normally, everything was fine. But when you were going hard, the clutch would slip under acceleration; it just wasn't up to the job.”


Ferrucio went to the service guys regularly to have a clutch rebuilt or renewed, and every time, the car was taken away for several hours and he was not allowed to watch it being repaired. The problem with the clutch was never cured, Obviously a bit furious he went to Modena to complain about the low quality part used in a Ferrari. Enzo Ferrari being quite an arrogant man, said Ferrucio was a “farmer” and the problem was with him, not the car.


Ferrucio was insulted and vowed to make a car worthy of beating a Ferrari. His efforts and revenge have resulted in the creation and development of among the most powerful, well renowned cars which really give Ferrari a run for its money even to this day. Yes, It's Lamborghini‬.
