Stephan Winkelmann, the Global CEO and Chairman of Automobili Lamborghini, has said the major obstacles to the growth of super luxury car sales in India are insufficient infrastructure and elevated tax rates, despite the fact that India has the third-highest number of billionaires worldwide.

Winkelmann believes that while taxation is an issue in some other markets, the greatest challenge in India is infrastructure, since there are other markets with high taxes but higher sales volumes.

In an interview, Winkelmann commented that while there is a combination of challenges, he believes the primary hurdle to the growth of super luxury car sales in India is the lack of adequate infrastructure, even though there are other markets with higher taxation and sales volumes.

He also noted that the Indian market is unique because Indian customers are present all over the world, with a significant presence in Europe, the United States, and Southeast Asia. Therefore, the Lamborghini community may be stronger than the Indian market, and it's possible that some Indian customers who drive Lamborghini cars don't reside in India.
