Lamborghini has released a new teaser video for its devoted customer base. On August 18th, California will be the site of the big announcement. The short teaser video runs about 15 seconds and depicts a city, a woman gazing at the heavens, and a UFO approaching Earth. Last but not least, the front of the new Lamborghini is teased. This is more of a teaser than anything since the company has already hinted at the existence of the car. Lamborghini, once known for its roaring V8, V10, and V12 engines, is ushering in a new age of silence with its transition to electric power. While the information on the EV prototype is still sketchy, it does hint at where the storied Italian manufacturer may be headed in the future. Indications from Lamborghini suggest that a four-seater electric car based on the SSP platform might make its appearance somewhere around 2028. On August 18 during Monterey Car Week in California, this enigmatic vehicle will make its international debut.

The Lamborghini electric vehicle (EV) concept will be developed on the Italian brand's SSP platform. The automaker said last month that the four-seat capacity of the electric supercar is official. According to Stephan Winkelmann, it will be a high-powered electric vehicle designed for regular usage. Additionally, he said that the next model would not adhere to the sport utility vehicle (SUV) classification. Lamborghini has previously said that it plans to produce its first electric vehicle somewhere around 2028.

Monterey Car Week is an annual vehicle event that garners significant anticipation in Monterey County, California.
