Lamborghini has unveiled a new flavor for the Huracan lineup. This car ditches the AWD that the versions of the Huracan feature and goes with a traditional RWD setup. The car is also a drop top Spyder for getting wind in your hair.
Design and Performance
Lamborghini says that the new design of the front and rear of the car identifies this model. The aggressive styling is not just for looks; it also enhances aerodynamics and cooling. Power is from a 580 hp V10 engine that can push the car to 100km/h in 3.6 seconds and to a top speed of 319 km/h. This engine is a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V10, which is known for its high-revving nature and thrilling exhaust note. The RWD setup offers a more engaging driving experience, allowing for controlled drifts and a more connected feel to the road.
The car’s chassis has been specifically tuned for rear-wheel drive, providing a unique driving experience compared to its all-wheel-drive siblings. The suspension system has been recalibrated to offer better handling and stability, making it a joy to drive on both twisty roads and open highways. The weight distribution is also optimized, with a slight rear bias that enhances traction and cornering performance.
Interior and Features
Inside, the Huracan RWD Spyder offers a luxurious yet sporty environment. The cabin is adorned with premium materials such as Alcantara and fine leather, and it features the latest in Lamborghini’s infotainment technology. The seats are designed to provide maximum support during spirited driving while still being comfortable for long journeys. The dashboard is dominated by a large digital display that provides all the necessary driving information, including speed, RPM, and navigation.
The car also comes with a host of driver assistance features, including traction control, stability control, and multiple driving modes that allow the driver to tailor the car’s behavior to their preferences. Whether you are cruising down the highway or attacking a mountain pass, the Huracan RWD Spyder has a mode that will suit your needs.
Lamborghini has also paid attention to the car’s convertible mechanism. The soft top can be lowered in just 17 seconds at speeds of up to 50 km/h, allowing you to enjoy the open air without having to stop. When the top is down, the car’s aerodynamics are still optimized to minimize wind buffeting and maintain stability.
Market Position and Availability
Lamborghini says that the new RWD Spyder will be available around the world starting in January 2017. This model is aimed at driving enthusiasts who prefer the purity of rear-wheel drive and the exhilaration of open-top motoring. It offers a unique proposition in the supercar market, combining the thrill of a high-performance engine with the freedom of a convertible.
“The rear-wheel drive Spyder enlarges the Huracán family’s core product range,” says Automobili Lamborghini Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Stefano Domenicali. “It offers the lifestyle appeal of open-air motoring with the pure thrill of rear-wheel drive engineering. This is a Lamborghini for those with a passion for life and the purest driving experience on the open road. It’s also a Huracán for those entering the Lamborghini family, wanting a true Spyder experience without compromising on the performance and dynamic handling of a rear-wheel drive car.”
The Huracan RWD Spyder is expected to attract a diverse range of customers, from seasoned supercar owners to those looking to make their first foray into the world of high-performance convertibles. Its combination of stunning looks, exhilarating performance, and open-air driving experience makes it a compelling choice for anyone in the market for a new supercar.
