Who is Ferruccio Lamborghini?
Ferruccio Lamborghini (Italian pronunciation: [ferˈruttʃo lamborˈgiːni]; 28 April 1916 – 20 February 1993) was an Italian industrialist. In 1963, he created Automobili Lamborghini, a maker of high-end sports cars in Sant’Agata Bolognese.
Ferruccio was born to grape farmers in Renazzo. From the comune of Cento in the Emilia-Romagna region. His mechanical know-how led him to enter the business of tractor manufacturing in 1948. When he founded Lamborghini Trattori, it quickly became an important manufacturer of agricultural equipment in the midst of Italy’s post-WWII economic boom. In 1959, he opened an oil burner factory. Apparently, Lamborghini Bruciatori later entered the business of producing air conditioning equipment.
Lamborghini founded a fourth company, Lamborghini Oleodinamica in 1969 after creating Automobili Lamborghini in 1963. Lamborghini sold off many of his interests by the late 1970s. Eventually, he retired to an estate in Umbria, where he pursued winemaking.
Ferruccio Lamborghini Enterpreneurship
In 1947 Ferruccio Lamborghini recognized an emerging market in post-War Italy devoted to agricultural and industrial revitalization. Lamborghini used parts from military vehicle engines and differentials from ARAR centres (Azienda Recupero Alienazione Residuati). Lamborghini built the first of his “Carioca” tractors, themselves based on the six-cylinder petrol engines of Morris trucks.
Initially, as petrol in Italy was prohibitively-priced, Lamborghini augmented the Morris engines with a fuel atomiser of his own creation. Eventually this allowed the tractors to be started with petrol, then switch to the cheaper diesel fuel. Also, based on the initial success of the Carioca, Lamborghini founded Lamborghini Trattori and began manufacturing tractors.
