Move Over, Mountains: The Lamborghini Ladies Just Took the Alps by Storm
Who says the French Alps are only for skiing? This week, the peak of Courchevel wasn’t found on a black diamond run, but on the ice track. Lamborghini just wrapped its third annual #SheDrivesaLambo event, and let’s just say the “glass ceiling” didn’t stand a chance against a 920-horsepower hybrid engine.
The Italian icon gathered a squad of bold, uncompromising women for a two-day takeover of the Le K2 Palace. The mission? Trading the boardroom for the driver’s seat of the brand-new Lamborghini Temerario.
Snow, Drifts, and 920 Horses Forget “delicate” driving. These women took the Temerario—a twin-turbo V8 beast paired with three electric motors—and put it to the ultimate test. We’re talking high-altitude switchbacks, mountain straights, and a dedicated ice track where the main goal was mastering the perfect drift. Because why just drive when you can slide with style?
More Than Just a Pretty Paint Job While the cars were the stars, the conversation was the soul. This year’s theme was “Horizon”—a nod to the fact that for these leaders, the sky isn’t the limit; it’s just the starting line.

Between laps, guests hung out with some serious powerhouses:
Daniela De Vivo: The engineering genius who led the vehicle development for Lamborghini. She shared what it’s like to be a woman in the high-speed world of automotive engineering (spoiler: it involves a lot of breaking stereotypes and earning respect).
Anja Blacha: A record-breaking explorer who has conquered K2 without oxygen. If anyone knows about “elevating your horizon,” it’s her.

A Little Himalayan Chic When they weren’t kicking up snow, the group retreated to the Le K2 Palace. Think Tibetan-inspired luxury, panoramic Alpine views, and “Bottleneck” restaurant dinners that reinvented French cuisine. It was the perfect mix of high-speed adrenaline and high-end relaxation.
The Takeaway? Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann put it best: the brand is for those who redefine expectations. Whether it’s conquering a solo trek to the South Pole or hitting 920 CV on a mountain pass, the message is clear:
She leads. She drives. She’s definitely not slowing down.
