NEW TECHNOLOGY

Exotic carmaker Lamborghini saw worldwide sales increased to 1,309 vehicles from 1,238 vehicles for the same period last year. That translates an increase in profite of 9.6 percent to $434.5 million.

Sales in the Middle East was up 40 percent, and the company saw increases in China and Hong Kong as well. Sales in the U.S. and Europe, which are still its major markets, were stable. The company, which had 65 dealerships back in 2004, now has 114 dealers now around the world.

Our take? Don't look for a Lambo hybrid for the general public or, heck, the rich, anytime soon.
