Chapter III - Social Responsibility Lambo

A average Lamborghini gets just 12 miles to a gallon. So Lambo needs to make some changes, the Italian sports car maker announced plans to cut 35% from the carbon dioxide emissions of its cars by 2015. And meanwhile it is putting 17,000 square meters of solar panels on the roof main factory at Sant'Agata Bolognese.
The company currently makes just two different cars the Murcielago with it's huge V 12 engine and the Gallardo with a slightly smaller V 10. So what the company is going to do is fit both of those cars with smaller engines, Murcielago will get a V8 and the Gallardo a V6, there will be no major changes to the outside of the cars. And if they put a smaller engine in the car, that gives some space to fit an electric engine in there as well, which will help while driving around a city.
And with all this effort Lamborghinis will still be the most gas guzzling cars on earth in 2015.
