Owning a Ferrari or Lamborghini means paying for more than fuel. Servicing, specialist labour, tyres, brakes and repairs add up. For buyers comparing Ferrari vs Lamborghini maintenance costs, the answer depends on the car’s age, model and service coverage. No single bill fits every owner.
Scheduled maintenance changes the answer
Ferrari’s Genuine Maintenance programme covers regular scheduled servicing for the first seven years of eligible new cars at no extra charge. It includes labour, original parts, lubricants, engine oil and brake fluid, with service generally due yearly or at the specified mileage interval. Coverage is linked to the car and may pass to a later owner. The manufacturer’s terms and vehicle eligibility matter, especially when buying used. It does not mean every repair or worn part is covered.
Lamborghini also offers scheduled maintenance packages. Its website says a Maintenance Pack is included with selected newer models, including the Temerario, Revuelto and Urus SE. Plans for models such as the Urus and Huracán may run for three, four or five years, depending on model and market. The plan can help owners predict scheduled costs, but exclusions and other repairs still matter. Buyers should confirm the package with an authorised dealer.
What do the cost estimates show?
A ConsumerAffairs comparison estimates maintenance and repairs for Ferrari at $1,500 to $3,000 annually, while Lamborghini maintenance costs are between $1,000 and $2,000 annually. It states that Ferrari’s scheduled maintenance is free for the first 7 years of the free programme. The following figures are meant as rough guidelines and not as a certainty or a test-by-test basis.
A key difference in the figures is that a new Ferrari in the programme might have lower routine-service bills, but a Ferrari out of the programme could run more expensive than the wide Lamborghini figure. This value varies by model, mileage, driving habits, local labor costs, and the condition of the vehicle.
Repairs can change the final bill
Ownership of a supercar isn’t all about routine servicing. Tyres and brakes can be expensive wearing parts, and engine and gearbox wear, or suspension or electronic problems can drive up the total. There may be other maintenance items that an older car has that a newer, well-maintained car does not, depending on what the records of the older car indicate. Average means minimum, not maximum.
So, which costs more?
Average estimates indicate that Lamborghini would typically be cheaper to maintain over a year’s time after the expiration of the seven-year scheduled-service benefit offered by Ferrari. During this early period, routine servicing might be more affordable for an eligible new Ferrari. If you are purchasing, obtain a service plan in writing, verify exclusions and estimate out-of-the-ordinary expenses in addition to the service cost. Look at the exact cars and not just the car badges.
