Lamborghini Huracán, which debuted at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, represents the continued evolution of Lamborghini, which has continued to improve the driving experience for its customers over the years. The Huracán has been in service for a decade as Lamborghini's entry-level model, and today it is Lamborghini's most versatile supercar, making the most of its capabilities on the road and on the track.
2014 Huracán LP 610-4
The Huracán LP 610-4 coupe, which debuted at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, features a V10 engine that produces 610 hp at 8,250 rpm, all-wheel drive and for the first time features a Lamborghini LDF dual clutch system. The choice of driving modes is Strada, Sport and Corsa. It features carbon-ceramic brake discs and MagneRide shock absorbers with an electromagnetic control system, and is the first Lamborghini to feature an 11-inch digital display, with the Spyder Convertible being launched in 2015.
2016 Huracán LP 580-2
Rear-wheel drive versions of the Huracán coupé and Spyder were introduced in 2016 and are designed to provide "driving pleasure". This car is designed not only for those who are looking for speed, but also for those who want to enjoy driving at a leisurely pace. This Huracán is equipped with a 580 hp engine. There are some changes to the front face and air intakes, which are designed to be larger to better cool the rear brakes.
2016 Hurricane Performante
The Lamborghini Huracán Performante is a version designed for sporty performance. The engine of this car has increased by 30 hp, and the maximum horsepower has been increased to 640 hp and 600 Nm of torque.
Of course, the modification of this car is not limited to the engine. For the Performante, weight reduction was one of its main goals, which was achieved through the extensive use of forged composite materials inside and outside the body, resulting in a weight reduction of 40 kilograms. This technology, patented by Lamborghini, combines maximum impact resistance with the lightest weight.
In addition, the Performante is equipped with advanced aerodynamic design, including the all-new ALA (Lamborghini Active Aerodynamics) system, which offers cutting-edge technology in an ultra-lightweight package that is nearly 80% lighter than traditional systems.
The Spyder Convertible was launched in 2017. With its outstanding performance, the Huracán Performante set a new lap record in its class at the Nürburgring in 2016, becoming the top supercar of its time.
2019 Hurricane EVO
Lamborghini launched the Huracán EVO coupe and convertible version in 2019, and the V10 engine received a complete makeover, not only in terms of mechanical performance, but also in terms of exterior design. The revamped V10 engine can now make 640 hp at 8,000 rpm while delivering 600 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm.
The EVO model has an all-new front-end design that enhances the vehicle's downforce, and the diffuser at the rear and the placement of the exhaust and radiator are inspired by the Performante model. The redesigned rear spoiler brings a five-fold increase in downforce compared to the previous model.
2020 Hurricane EVO RWD
Lamborghini first introduced the concept of "driving pleasure" in previous Huracán rear-wheel drive models, reiterating and emphasizing this in the Huracán EVO RWD model. This means that this model is designed to provide the ultimate driving experience, both in terms of design and performance.
The front diverter of the new Huracán EVO RWD model has been redesigned to direct more air flow to the diffuser at the rear. In order to make the RWD model more flexible and fun, Lamborghini chose not to use LDVI and instead developed the P-TCS (Performance Traction Control System). It's a proprietary technology that ensures optimal traction during drifting, and it increases oversteer behavior by 30% compared to the four-wheel-drive version.
2021 Huracán STO
STO (acronym for Super Trofeo Omologata) is a street race car that evolved directly from the racing version of the Lamborghini Super Trofeo championship. Its appearance meant that Lamborghini brought racing technology to the streets, changing the rules of the game. The STO retains the 640-horsepower engine of the EVO model, but has been recalibrated to provide a better driving experience and rear-wheel drive mode, and is equipped with rear-wheel steering technology.
The STO's body is 75% made of carbon fiber, a lightweight and high-strength material that helps improve the vehicle's performance and handling. Customers can choose to partially paint the carbon fiber or keep it in its bare carbon condition.
After a full upgrade, the fixed rear wing of the STO can now be manually adjusted to three different positions for different aerodynamic loads. The STO is equipped with a completely new system of driving modes, which have been developed specifically for this car. Includes STO mode for everyday road driving; Trofeo mode, designed for track driving; and Pioggia mode for slippery roads.
2022 Hurricane Technique
Equipped with a 640 hp engine, the Tecnica has a number of unique designs, such as a bonnet made of carbon fiber and glass, which offers the perfect balance between elegance and a sporty look. The Tecnica uses a rear-wheel drive system with specific calibrations to enhance the driving experience.
Its performance is enhanced by rear-wheel steering technology (up to 3°) and improved aerodynamics. A new front bumper design with optimised air intakes and a redesigned diverter that delivers a 35% increase in downforce compared to the EVO.
2023 Hurricane Sterrato
The Sterrato was born to transfer the "pleasure of driving" to terrain that supercars would not normally touch. While the Urus brings supercar performance to ATVs, the Sterrato does the opposite, taking supercars to terrain that is often the preserve of SUVs. The Sterrato has a higher ground clearance of 44mm, a redesigned and strengthened suspension system, and a revised chassis to meet the challenges of unpaved roads.
Knobbly Dueller tires were created specifically for this model in collaboration with Bridgestone, with special fenders surrounding the tires to prevent the mud and water from flying on the body. The track has been widened by 30 mm for improved stability and handling. The front shunt has been redesigned to ensure a better angle of incidence. The redesigned front bumper incorporates oversized brake air intakes.
To protect the engine from sand, dust and gravel, all low air intakes were closed, and a special air intake was added to the roof. The Strada, Sport and Rally driving modes have been reprogrammed to ensure better performance in all conditions. The Sterrato is limited to 1,499 units.
Lamborghini has also released a number of special editions of the Huracán, including the 2019 EVO GT Celebration Edition, the 2023 60th Anniversary Edition, and the 2024 STJ (acronym for Super Trofeo Jota), the latest supercar with a naturally aspirated V10 engine and limited to 10 units.
With its record-breaking performance, technical and sales figures, the Huracán is an important part of Lamborghini, both on the road and on the track (Gran Turismo, Huracán GT3, Huracán GT3 EVO and Huracán GT3 EVO 2). It is the most versatile model in the history of the Santa Agata based automaker.
The naturally aspirated V10 engine is a symbol of Lamborghini's history and has contributed to the success of the Huracán family, which will be replaced this year by a new supercar with a new hybrid powertrain.
