However, the point is that Lamborghini aren't profitable. Sure, on paper they make a very small profit, but that has to be weighed against the interest payments that VAG have to make. From a company point of view there is next to nothing special about Lamborghini, in that the current cars offer nothing special in their technology, and in order to do so VAG will have to spend a huge amount on the next-gen cars, and they are unwilling to do so. Lamborghini is a luxury to VAG, and one that they don't need, now that they have Bugatti up and running.
