Lambo and Bugatti are worthless alone. Emissions laws make them impossible to market, but in a larger company that's ok because the average counts.

Ducati can be expected to make a positive (small) contribution to average emissions, so they'll most likely stay.

Similar thing across Europe: they sell as many hybrids as possible - through heavy discounts and finance offers.


The process is an important part of the bean counters work day, so they do it regularly.
