Tonino Lamborghini is a brand born from the pioneering spirit and DNA of its founder, heir of Ferruccio Lamborghini, with the aim to show his energy to create, to design and to innovate to the world. Today the name Tonino Lamborghini is synonymous with unparalleled luxury, sophistication and beauty.
The legacy of the Lamborghini name lives on through Tonino’s son, Ferruccio Lamborghini, who leads the luxury lifestyle brand as CEO of the company.

In line with its vision of uncompromising beauty and innovation, China’s groundbreaking mobile company MEITU, along with TONINO LAMBORGHINI have announced plans to produce a unique co-branded smartphone that will exquisitely merge Italian design heritage with cutting edge 21st century Chinese technology.

The agreement was officially signed last May 15 in Seoul, Korea by the JV TL International, Inc.
More technical details and product specs will be revealed by Meitu at the launch of the new Tonino Lamborghini smartphone in the near future.

Mr. Ferruccio Lamborghini, 27 years old, son of Tonino Lamborghini and CEO of the Italian company, added: “In line with our new ambitious project in the sector of premium smart devices, we have decided to match our strongly innovative DNA with one of the finest, advanced and inventive tech partners in the Chinese market. A team of very young geek entrepreneurs with a special imagination and creativity to create luxurious smartphone with ultimate photography experience.
For over thirty-five years, our company has covered different markets and sectors thanks to the vitality, passion and eclecticism of my father. He has created a brand always in action, innovative, experimental, original and audacious. Since my grandfather Ferruccio founded the first Lamborghini company, the Lamborghini family has been following the mission to create unique highly innovative products inspired by the Italian flair and mechanical design heritage.
I am personally managing this new project because I admire Meitu inspiring products and its challenging philosophy. Besides, I find its pursuit of excellence and its dream of inspiring people in expressing their beauty perfectly in line with the Tonino Lamborghini brand. This is the reason why we have decided to create with Meitu a new limited edition co-branded stylish and trendy smartphone for the most artistic and trendy Chinese consumers, passionate for fashion, beauty and Italian flair.”
