Today, Lamborgini, despite its fame, is a tiny company that produces hundreds of cars a year. The release of Gullardo had a significant impact on these modest statistics: the number of sales increased to several thousand per year. Now, hopes for the further development of the company are pinned on a new model that replaced the eminent predecessor - Lamborghini Huracan LP 610 4. The cost of the car is about 187,000 pounds.

The minimum period of operation of the novelty is 7-8 years. Since the first release, more than 14,000 cars have been sold, and this is far from the limit. Every automaker makes mistakes, and Lamborghini is no exception. But the company knows how to set clear goals and successfully fulfill them. Over the 51-year period of their existence (created in 1963), the percentage of errors was less than 10%. This speaks ofwin-win policy of the firm.

Premier

The official premiere of the Huracan took place in March 2014 at the Geneva Motor Show, although the official Russian dealer began to take the first orders even before that, in January 2014. It should be noted that all models intended for the domestic market have long been sold out.

Benefits

The updated design of the Lamborghini Huracan LP 610 leaves no chance for competitors in its segment. The novelty is in many ways superior to its predecessors. This applies to price, quality and company policy. Not the last role is played by a rich color scheme.

If we compare the novelty with the Aventador model, it is more affordable. Each new Lamborghini model brings something new to its customers. The car has a good chance of becoming the best-selling in its segment, leaving behind its main competitors, including the Audi R8, BMW I8, Ferrari 458, Aston Martin, Mclaren 12C and others. These are very serious companies that are thoroughly entrenched in the market. A slightly modified design will not satisfy the public, especially when it comes to supercars.

Lamborghini Huracan. Specifications

Model height is 1165mm, width is 1900mm. As for the wheelbase, it is extended to 2,600 mm. The maximum developed power of 5.2 liters of the V10 power unit is 610 “horses” (448 kW at 8250 rpm). The maximum torque is 560 Nm at 6,500 rpm. It should be noted that 70% of the rotation altorque available at 1,000 rpm.

Electronics

A 12.3-inch screen with a resolution of 1440x540 pixels is installed in the car interior, which displays all the information the driver needs: speed, engine speed, coolant temperature, fuel supply. In addition to the above, there are multimedia settings, navigation system maps and other useful additions. A small TFT screen is also provided for dual-zone climate control.

Lamborghini Huracan Interior

The interior of the car with all its appearance speaks of the daring, sporty character of the model. The low landing of the driver and his passenger, a plump steering wheel with a cut off lower part of the rim are proof of this. Without taking his hands off the steering wheel, the driver has the ability to shift gears using the steering wheel paddles, control the phone, multimedia and other equipment.

Inside the car, you get the impression that you are in the cockpit of a fighter jet: a lot of switches, an engine start button behind a red shield, and more.

It should be noted interior finishing materials. The manufacturer used genuine leather and Alcantara. The front panel, doors, seats, armrest, center console are all finished in combined leather.

Riding style

The model has three driving modes: Strada, Corsa, Sport. The first mode is for quiet city driving, the second for racing tracks, and the last for dynamic and exciting driving.trips, which can be understood from the name itself. Each mode dramatically changes how the Lamborghini Huracan behaves on the road. If necessary, the stability control system can be disabled with a special button.

Suspension, four-wheel drive, speed

The car has a fully independent suspension with MagneRide shock absorbers. Noteworthy is the new engine injection system. Its use allows you to reduce fuel consumption, while increasing the power of the Lamborghini Huracan. The average fuel consumption is 12.5 liters per "hundred".

The sports car accelerates to 100 km/h in 3.2 seconds and to 200 km/h in 9.9 seconds. The car is equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. High-quality and reliable carbon-ceramic brakes are included as standard. The car confidently holds the road both on the highway and in urban conditions.

Practicality

Lamborghini Huracan engineers did not pay much attention to the practicality of the car, because for such cars it practically does not matter and is never a priority. However, in the novelty, in comparison with its predecessor, there is more space for small luggage. At the same time, the capacity of the luggage compartment remained the same - only 150 liters. One or two medium-sized bags can fit there, no more. There is also 60-70 liters of free space behind the backs of the driver and passengers, depending on how far the seats are pushed back.
