The most driver-oriented version of the Huracan is
getting an open-top version, which will undoubtedly turn every head in the room
at the Geneva Motor Show.
The new Huracan Performante Spyder features a
soft-top roof that takes 17 seconds to open or close and doesn’t compromise the
ALA (Aerodinamica Lamborghini Attiva) active aerodynamics.
Its naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V10 develops just
as much power as its fixed-roof sibling, which is 640 PS and 600 Nm of torque, or 30 PS and 40 Nm more than the LP610-4
Spyder, from which it is also 35 kg lighter. The 0 to 100 km/h sprint has dropped from
the standard Spyder’s 3.4 seconds to 3.1, which is 0.2sec shy off the Huracan
Performante Coupe. Top speed is identical, though, at 325 km/h.
The new Spyder
benefits from an enhanced suspension, more responsive steering, recalibrated
ESC, permanent four-wheel drive, ALA active aero and revised ANIMA. The
drive-mode system offers three settings, Strada, Sport and Corsa, with each one
customizing the setup of the dynamic systems accordingly.
Deep pocketed enthusiasts can already order the new
Lamborghini Huracan Performante Spyder in different markets worldwide, but they
will have to wait at least until summer to take delivery.
