Key Points: Carbon Fibre Rear Bonnet, Functional Pack, Lamborghini Warranty - 4 Years from Manufacturer
Introduced as a replacement for Lamborghini’s previous V10 offering, the Gallardo, the Huracán made its debut at the 2014 Geneva Auto Show. The name was inspired by the fighting bull ‘Huracán’ of the Spanish Conte de la Patilla breed, known for his outstanding courage and aggression.
The Huracán has LED headlamps, Iniezione Diretta Stratificata (IDS) fuel injection, Magneride damper control, carbon ceramic brakes and the ANIMA (Adaptive Network Intelligent Management) drive mode selector, consisting of ‘Strada’, ‘Sport’ and ‘Corsa’ settings, and which adjusts the engine, transmission, limited-slip differential, all-wheel drive system, magnetorheological suspension and electronic stability control accordingly.
The Huracán received a mid-cycle update in 2019, including a name change to the Huracán Evo. Post-facelift cars feature a more aggressive design language, consisting of a new front bumper with integrated aeroblades for improved downforce, along with a Performante-influenced rear end. The Huracán Evo has rear-wheel steering for improved handling, and a revised torque vectoring system. A new central processing unit is controlled by the Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Integrata infotainment system, which has integrated Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Unveiled in April 2022, the Huracán LP 640-2 Tecnica sits between the EVO RWD and the track-focused STO variants. It uses the same naturally-aspirated 5.2-litre V10 engine as the STO, producing 631hp and 417lb ft of torque, which is sent to the rear wheels via the Lamborghini Doppia Frizione (LDF) seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The result is a 0-62mph sprint time of just 3.2 seconds, and a top speed of 202mph. According to Lamborghini, the Tecnica's aerodynamic changes increase downforce by 35%, and reduce drag by 20% compared to the Huracán Evo.
