Lamborghini has a history of offering lighter, more powerful versions of its cars, and it looks like the Huracan supercar will be getting the same treatment.
will be getting the same treatment. Our spies have caught what looks like a new Huracan Superleggera testing on the Nurburgring.
The rear of the car in our pictures shows the most obvious changes, with a new bumper section housing the quad exhaust pipes. It's likely that in the production car, the new exhausts will sit up higher in the blanked-off section, inspired by the Huracan GT3 racers - and simialarly a fixed rear wing will add some downforce for track use.

As with previous Superleggera models the new Lamborghini will likely shed around 100kg of weight compared to the standard car as well as getting a slight power boost for its 5.2-litre V10 engine. The current car has 602bhp and goes from 0-62mph in 3.2 seconds, so expect blistering performance from this new, more hardcore model.
The price is likely to be north of £200,000, with an even bigger premium for an eventual soft-top version, also spotted in our spy pictures. We expect to see the new lightweight Huracan at the Paris Motor Showtowards the end of 2016, with an eventual release in 2017.
