After the final Lamborghini Aventadors went down with 4,000 supercars on sunken ship every customer still received their order

After the final Lamborghini Aventadors sank to the bottom of the ocean, along with 4,000 other supercars, Lamborghini made sure every customer still received their Aventador supercar.

In February 2022, The Felicity Ace, a huge cargo ship, caught fire off the Azores and sank despite rescue efforts to save the ship.

That meant the last 15 Aventadors produced went down with the ship, just after Lamborghini had finished production of the supercar.

But it didn’t want to leave customers disappointed, so the company revived production for a limited time to replace the now sunken orders.

What happened to the final Lamborghini Aventadors?

The ship was carrying up to 4,000 cars, with a total value of $400 million, including 85 Lamborghinis.

Of those 85, 15 of the supercars were the Lamborghini Aventador Ultimae.

The Ultimae was the final series to conclude Aventador production after 11 years.

But the cargo ship caught fire while sailing through the Azores.

Rescue workers and firefighters tried to save the ship.

However, after several days, the damage from the fires caused it to capsize and sink on March 1st, 2022.

The manufacturer was shocked by the events, as its final Aventadors headed to the bottom of the sea.

But now, not wanting to disappoint customers, production was relaunched to replace the 15 Ultimaes.

The company also decided to replace the other sunken cars, which were the Huracan and Urus.

The Aventador Ultimae orders were reborn

It wasn’t easy for the manufacturer to just restart production.

It needed a reorganized production line, replenished materials, and more space in its schedule.

But every customer who had lost a vehicle in the sinking would have their car replaced, one way or another.

By September 2022, the real final Aventador rolled off the production line.

Lamborghini capped off the conclusion of production with the retort ‘for real this time’.

The car was number 11,465, in a unique blue created under the Ad Personam program.

This time, all of the cars made it to their intended homes, with no disaster befalling them.

No doubt both the car company and its customers were relieved that things worked out the second time around.
