Lamborghini might soon be up for sale, and whoever buys the Italian supercar brand, is going to get a lot of trick aero, as part of the deal.
In the rarefied world of cars that are allowed to power past 300 kph, aerodynamics become a big deal. Balancing the airflow and harnessing it to enhance the driving experience, instead of making it more anxious, is a vital part of Lamborghini’s obsessionwith aero.
The company has now revealed its Huracan Super Trofeo EVO2, which could be classified as the ultimate road-legal V10 Lamborghini. Although the 5.2-litre naturally aspirated engine hasn’t been modified, it is close to achieving unicorn status in a world of turbocharged or hybridized supercars.
All that power is directed at the rear wheels, unlike most other Huracáns, which are all-wheel drive. To help the rear-wheel-drive Super Trofeo EVO2 be more predictable and rewarding to drive at the limit, Lamborghini’s aero specialists have created an impressive package of external winglets, spoilers and diffusers,
The Super Trofeo EVO2 has a front lip spoiler and composite fins that are not unlike what is found on the Super Trofeo Omologata. Further assisting airflow management are larger front air intakes and there’s a typically huge wing spoiler, at the rear.
Beyond the radical aerodynamics, this Lamborghini Super Trofeo EVO2 has better brakes than a standard Huracan.
Although the braking system retains steel rotors, instead of carbon-ceramic, Lamborghini has increased the diameter from by 10 mm to 390 mm. Accommodating this brake system upgrade are revised callipers and a larger contact area brake pad.
If you like the idea of a 450 kW Huracan with rear-wheel drive, a six-speed automated manual transmission and aero bits that make a Batmobile look subtle, this Super Trofeo EVO2 is your ideal new Lamborghini.
