(Pocket-lint) - Lamborghini has outlined plans for the electrification of the brand, saying that it will have an all-electric model on the road in the second half of the decade.

That's a fairly long timeline for anyone in the market for a new electric hypercar, but the plan for Automobili Lamborghini covers much more than just an EV model.

It's a transformation that's going to see the decarbonisation of the headquarters site at Sant'Agata Bolognese, while making a transformation through new models.

The move to hybrids will take place up to 2024 - following the lead of the Sián - but there will be two new V12 models in 2021 before we get there. Lamborghini sees this as a celebration of the combustion engine, a last hurrah.

There's very little detail about what to expect, except that Lamborghini repeats that performance and driving dynamics is at the top of the agenda - and you can be assured that there will be plenty of design flair too.

A better idea of what to expect might come from Audi's R8 e-tron (or whatever it gets called) and could sit on the same platform as the Porsche Taycan.
