Huracán EVO RWD
The open-air driving experience aboard the Huracán EVO RWD Spyder is enhanced by the sound of the naturally aspirated 610 CV V10 engine with titanium intake valves.
The Huracán EVO RWD Spyder is specially engineered to be an instinctive driver’s car, still producing top performance but focused on the driver’s skills and the set-up of the rear-wheel drive powertrain, providing unfiltered physical feedback and maximum engagement. The specially tuned P-TCS traction control system is designed for adrenalin-producing performance in all conditions, consistently delivering torque and assuring traction even as the Spyder is realigning after sharp cornering or drifting. Especially with the roof down, the driver’s senses are further aroused by the sound of the aspirated V10 engine responding to the throttle during maneuvers.
Under the bonnet and behind the seats sits a 5.2-litre naturally-aspirated V10 engine good for 610PS of power and 560Nm of torque. It is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission which sends all the power to the asphalt via 305-section tires in the rear.
Lamborghini claims that this supercar isn’t built just for setting lap times. In Strada mode, the Huracan’s P-TCS system emphasizes traction and reduces rear wheel slip to keep you safe. Switch to Corsa mode and you’re ready for a track day. The P-TCS gives you that little bit of slip to make the car more agile in the corner. Lamborghini claims that the system improves corner-exit traction by 20 per cent and oversteer by 30 per cent over the previous Huracan RWD.
To enjoy the Huracan to its fullest extent, switch to the Sport mode and all hell breaks loose. The system lets you slide and drift all over the place. But if it detects that the tail is spinning out rapidly, it’ll reduce torque to the wheels to keep you from spinning out.
On the outside, the Huracan Evo RWD is near-identical to its AWD sibling. It gets a new splitter and vertical fins on the front air intakes. The rear diffuser on the gloss-black bumper is all-new, too. Inside, the Huracan Evo RWD’s design and hardware is familiar. However, the infotainment screen is now 8.4-inches diagonal. It gets telemetry, internet connectivity, and Apple CarPlay. The Lamborghini Huracan RWD comes as a breath of fresh air in 2020. The number of rear-drive, mid-engine sportscars and supercars is slowly dwindling in the race for better lap times around the Nürburgring. Most of Ferrari’s supercars are now all-wheel-drive and McLaren is yet to come to our shores. The Lamborghini’s only rear-drive rivals in India are the Jaguar F-Type, Porsche 911, and the Ferrari 812 Superfast. Of these, only the Porsche has a mid-rear layout.
