Super luxury car maker Lamborghini said it's almost sold out for the year as the pandemic eases in Europe and the USA with customers ready to spend up.

The supercar brand is set for "strong growth" in 2021 and has sold about 10 months of its production capacity, CEO Stephan Winkelmann told Bloomberg in an interview at the Milano Monza auto show.

"Despite a two-month shut down due to the pandemic, Lamborghini ended 2020 as its second-best year ever," said Winkelmann.

Lamborghini deliveries have increased by almost 25 percent to a record during the first quarter.

Lamborghini is also beginning to electrify its lineup and will offer plug-in hybrid versions of each model by 2024, with the first vehicle powered purely by battery during the second half of the decade.

Lamborghini boss Stephan Winkelmann said sales are up 25 percent.
