Lamborghini Huracán Unveiled; 5.2L V10 Engine, 610 HP & Top Speed Of 325 Kmph

Automobili Lamborghini has unveiled Huracán, the successor to the Gallardo. With the Huracán, Lamborghini have continued their long standing tradition of naming cars after famous fighting bulls. The Huracán used to belong to the Spanish Conte de la Patilla breed and was famous for his outstanding courage and strong sense of attack. Since we are a forum for Engineers we won’t go into details of the styling but quickly move on to the vehicle stats. The Lamborghini Huracán has got a 5.2 litre V10 engine that produces a maximum power of 610 HP and delivers 560Nm of torque. It can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.2 seconds and flat out it can achieve speeds of over 325 km/h.


Since a powerful sports car tends to be a gas guzzler, Lamborghini has implemented its new ''Iniezione Diretta Stratificata'' (IDS) technology where both direct and indirect gasoline injections are combined to reduce fuel consumption and cut down emissions. The Huracán has been given a four wheel drive along with a new 7-speed dual-clutch transmission system. Drivers will be able to select their preferred driving modes of Strada, Sport or Corsa by using the driving dynamics selector switch located on the steering wheel. The chassis has been constructed by using an integrated structure of carbon and aluminium elements which makes the car lighter and gives it a better power-to-weight ratio.

Lamborghini plans to organise over 130 private preview events in more than 60 cities globally to showcase the Huracán to potential buyers from the beginning of next year. After making an public appearance at the Geneva Motor Show 2014 it shall be delivered to customers by spring 2014 at an undisclosed price.
