Previous Lamborghini at Bologna
In 2013, the Italian supercar maker handed over six lead cars to BLQ to accompany airplanes into the parking lot and to the gates over eight years. Lamborghini’s previous car was the Huracan LP 580-2, which had rear-wheel drive and a naturally aspirated V10 5.2-liter engine that produced 580 horsepower and 540 Newton-meters of torque. However, the coupe was slower than the current car in terms of acceleration and dynamics: the Huracan LP 580-2 took 3.4 seconds to reach 60 mph and got a top speed of 195 mph.

As a result, the Huracán EVO produces 640 horsepower (470 kW) at 8,000 rpm and 600 Newton meters of torque at 6,500 rpm. Furthermore, with a dry weight of 1,422 kilograms, the Huracán EVO achieves a weight-to-power ratio of 2.22 kilograms per horsepower and speeds from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 2.9 seconds and in 9.0 seconds from 0 to 200 kilometers per hour . Furthermore, braking from 100 km/h to 0 takes only 31.9 meters, despite the car’s maximum speed of more than 325 km/h.
A redesigned front bumper lends the vehicle a low, forceful attitude, but more significantly, the front splitter with an integrated wing ensures aerodynamic efficiency. The larger air intakes include the Lamborghini design DNA’s Ypsilon form.
