A new variant of the Lamborghini Huracan is just around the corner and is expected to be dubbed the JV Stradale. Spied for the very first time during winter testing in Northern Europe, the Huracan JV Stradale is thought to be a slightly tamer version of the extreme Huracan STO but lacks some of that car’s outlandish aerodynamic components. It is, therefore, expected to be somewhat similar in philosophy to the Porsche 911 GT3 Touring.
Found at the front of the Huracan prototype
is a unique front bumper that isn’t quite as outlandish as that of the STO.
While this prototype also has a large LED light bar mounted to the bonnet, that
obviously won’t find its way into production. These spy shots also show the car
with a set of eye-catching five-spoke wheels sitting over a set of
carbon-ceramic brakes with black calipers.
Viewed from the rear, the Huracan JV
Stradale lacks the aggressive engine cover of the STO as well as that’s car’s
rear wing. Instead, it adopts a rear wing more similar to that of the
pre-facelift Huracan Performante. The rear diffuser of the STO appears to have
been carried over to the JV Stradale without any changes. In all likelihood,
the JV Stradale will have the same powertrain as the STO. That means a 5.2-liter
naturally-aspirated V10 with 631 hp and 565 Nm of torque. It should
also be rear-wheel drive and will no doubt weigh less than a standard Huracan
Evo.
This isn’t the only new variant of the
Lamborghini Huracan that will be presented this year. The Italian car
manufacturer is reading a jacked-up variant dubbed the Sterrato that will have
increased ground clearance, tweaked bumpers, skid plates, and all-terrain
tires. Unlike the STO and JV Stradale, it will likely retain the
all-wheel-drive system of the standard model.
