The Lamborghini Huracán has reached the end of the road in series-production form, but it’s going out on an all-time high...
Looks-wise there’s much to take in. The front end has received the most attention, with Y-shaped slots, inspired by those on the Terzo Millennio electric hypercar concept, bursting from each headlight. They help generate drag-reducing ‘air curtains’ along the flanks – a first for the Huracán – while a new front splitter balances the front-end downforce and directs cooling air to the brakes.track car.
The roads that lead away from Valencia up into the hills are rough and sun-baked, so there’s nothing to be gained from immediately jumping into Sport mode. In truth, while Strada may be the softcore dynamic mode it works impressively well with the lumpen road surface, allowing plenty of time to settle in and get comfortable.
It doesn’t take long to really get dialled in to how the Huracán reacts. The V10 has tremendous reach combined with a generous spread of torque and instant throttle response. Better still, the fidelity with which you can modulate the throttle is so fine it’s possible to make minute adjustments to get the car balanced just-so. Modern turbocharging is a marvel, but you can’t beat natural aspiration for immediacy or exactness.
Drop the road tester-y-ness and the Tecnica is one of those cars that just makes you buzz. The engine noise and sense of occasion, straight-line pace, levels of grip and stopping power and uncanny elasticity of its limits are amongst the best you’ll encounter. Likewise the seven-speed DCT transmission. This is one of those rare supercars that will nurture novices just as readily as it will satisfy seasoned hands.
Driving done, it’s time to let the Tecnica experience percolate. Criticisms are few and far between. The main one centres upon the overly sharp brake feel and response at the top of the pedal. Outright braking power and stamina are top notch , but there’s a fraction of dead travel that makes your initial input a bit of guesswork. It’s more of an issue at lower speeds, where you just want to breathe on the pedal and gently lose 5 or 10mph.
