Ferrari vs Lamborghini, Differences:
The huge difference between both cars is their design. Ferrari was started as a racecar brand and still racing exists in the DNA of Ferrari. Enzo Ferrari was making Ferraris for racing only but when he get to know that there is a requirement for more money to make racing cars then he started making Ferraris for roads also.
No doubt there are luxury features in Ferrari but till today it is also a racing car. Like Ferrari 488 Pista, in this car, there are elements inspired by racing cars. Its body is made from an ultra-lite exterior which helps it to go at higher speed, It has a slide slip control system, The word PISTA in its name, means “track” in Italian. This name was given so that Ferrari’s racing heritage could not be forgotten.
On the hand, even though Lamborghini is a competitor of Ferrari but its approach is not racing. Lamborghini is that type of car which is made for ease and comfort for people and also for speed and power. Due to this approach, Lamborghini made more varieties of cars than Ferrari.
Bcoz only two people can sit in the racing car as there is very less space while in most models of Lamborghini, more than two people can sit comfortably. Like the Lamborghini Urus, it is an off-roading powerful SUV with 5 passenger seating capacity.

Why Ferrari is Red and Lamborghini Yellow?
Ferrari’s iconic colour is red, there is an interesting story behind this. It is not that Enzo Ferrari’s favourite colour was red so he made Ferrari’s iconic colour red.
The reason behind this is that there are some specific colours given to International Racing Teams, So at that time Ferrari was a racing car company and International Automobile Federation gives the red colour to Italian racing cars that’s why Ferrari had to make red colour cars and then it became so popular that Red is now the iconic colour of Ferrari.
Whereas Lamborghini’s iconic colour is yellow but behind this, there is no such interesting story. Lamborghini started making yellow colour cars because it looks more attractive and this idea worked now Lamborghini are popular, more in yellow colour.
