Lamborghini Huracan: OFFICIAL

Lamborghini Huracan: OFFICIAL It’s always an event to see the arrival of a real new model from Lamborghini – rather than a tititavtion of an existing model – and the reveal of the Lamborghini Gallardo’s replacement is even more joyous as it brings to an end the daft attempt at a viral tease Lamborghini embarked on with the Hexagon Project. So here we have it – the Lamborghini Huracan LP-6104 – with styling that evolves to be more flowing – and more like the Aventador – all-wheel-drive and 602bhp from its 5.2 litre V10.

GM says that 0-60mph takes under 3.5sec.
