Rumors suggest that Lamborghini will be launching a rear-wheel drive version of its Huracan supercar. The car will have its global debut on November 17th at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
The regular Huracan is already potent vehicle
Lamborghini built a rear-wheel drive Gallardo so it this news does not come as a surprise. The new Huracan will be lighter than the current coupe and will be a more hardcore version. Since its predecessor was limited to just 250 units, it is highly likely to a be limited edition car as well. Lamborghini could also build a rear-wheel drive version of the Spyder.
The Italian company already builds a rear-wheel Huracan. This is the Huracan LP 620-2 Super Trofeo race car. So it should be easy for Lamborghini to build a road legal version of this car.
More details will emerge once the show kicks off. The show will be held between November 20th to 29th this year.
The Huracan Super Trofeo is a rear wheel drive supercar
The current Huracan LP 610-4 is powered by a 5.2 litre naturally aspirated V10 engine producing 602 hp and 560 Nm of torque. It is mated to a 7-speed LDF dual-clutch transmission and power is sent to all four wheels. It accelerates from a standstill to a 100 kmph in 3.2 seconds and goes on to a top speed of more than 325 kmph. It gets technologies like the ANIMA switch (Advanced Network Intelligence Management), LPI system (Lamborghini Piattaforma Inerziale) and LDS (Lamborghini Dynamic Steering). The Lamborghini Huracan rivals the Audi R8, Ferrari 488, Porsche 911 Turbo S and the Mclaren 650S. While the coupe was launched at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, the spider was launched at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show. The Huracan is the successor to the Gallardo. In India, only the coupe is on sale as of now. It costs INR 3.43 crores (ex-showroom, New Delhi). The Huracan Spider will be launched at a later stage.
It will be interesting to see what Lamborghini comes up with next.
