Chinese supercar brands such as Denza and YangWang may be creating machines that are more powerful and faster than anything Lamborghini has ever made, but so far, the raging bull does not feel threatened by any of them.

 

Auto Express spoke to Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann at the 2026 Goodwood Festival of Speed, where the new 1,583bhp Denza Z was revealed. This is a car supposedly capable of 0-62mph in less than two seconds, and with a top speed of up to 217mph. 

 

“We don’t see this as a threat,” the boss of Lamborghini said nonchalantly, nor could he think of a single Chinese brand that stood out as a potential challenger to the renowned Italian outfit.
