Lamborghini Huracan EVO Breaks Cover With 640 PS, Rear-Wheel Steering

Lamborghini’s newest iteration of the Huracan is dubbed EVO, featuring a fully-integrated Vehicle Dynamics Control System, new infotainment technology with advanced connectivity features and can accelerate from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 2.9 seconds.

We actually knew that it was going to be called the ‘EVO’ thanks to a recently released teaser of a Lamborghini invite-only app. Still, that image gave us a good look at the Huracan’s upgraded styling.

Improved aerodynamics

Lamborghini gave the Huracan EVO a new front bumper, featuring a front splitter with integrated wing design, aiding airflow. Meanwhile, the larger air intakes boast the automaker’s signature Ypsilon shape, while the profile reveals a new wheel design and new side air intakes.

It’s the rear end however that arguably makes this new version of the Huracan stand out most. The twin exhaust tips are positioned higher up in the rear bumper, while the upper end of the rear section features an integrated slotted spoiler for a bit of a ‘Ducktail’ look.

As for what goes on underneath the car, it’s all meant to maximize aerodynamic efficiency. In fact, according to Lambo, the Huracan EVO’s airflow friendly styling improves downforce and overall aerodynamics by more than five times, compared to the first-generation Huracan.

“Lamborghini is intent on leading the advance to the highest level of super sports car technologies and driving emotion. This is the essence of the new Huracán EVO. It takes the extraordinary abilities of the Huracán Performante and combines state-of-the-art vehicle dynamic control to amplify the everyday Huracán driving experience,” stated the company’s CEO, Stefano Domenicali. “The Huracan EVO is the very definition of evolution: it is a step ahead, redefining the segment parameters. It is remarkably easy to drive, while delivering the most responsive, sensory and agile driving experience, in every environment.”

Modernized cabin

Inside the Huracan EVO you’ll find dedicated ‘EVO’ trim in Alcantara and leather mix, with Arancio Dryope details to match the Arancio Xanto exterior on this particular press release model. Available on request are Carbon Forged Composites and Lamborghini’s patented Carbon Skin, to go with the new customizable ambient lighting system.

Customers will be able to choose from a wide range of Style Packs, as well as opt for Lamborghini’s Ad Personam program.
