Mumbai, July 11 (IBNS): Automobili Lamborghini India hostedthe First Super Sports Car Drive for Women in New Delhi on Sunday, a drive initiated to encourage the culture of driving among women, the company said.

She was accompanied by eight women from different walks of life for this drive.

It was the first time, I have ever driven in an all-women drive. Events like this should motivate women in our country to follow their passion for driving super sports cars. It feels I am exploring new horizons and crossing more boundaries every time that I am behind my steering wheel.”

The drive included a Lamborghini experience on city roads and on race track (Buddha International Circuit). The drive covered 45 km commencing from Shangri-La, Hotel, centre of New Delhi to Buddha International Circuit (BIC) giving the experience on ease of handling and manoeuvring on city roads to all the women drivers.

Later all the women drivers were given the drive experience on BIC, where Armaan Ebrahim guided them with finer aspects of driving a Lamborghini on a race track.
