The first-generation Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 Coupé is a mid-engined supercar produced by Italian luxury sports car manufacturer Lamborghini. It was unveiled in 2014 and marked a significant evolution of the V10-powered RWD cars that preceded it.
Design and Features
The LP 610-4 has an aggressive, angular design language characterized by sharp lines, creases, and air intakes. Its shape is influenced by Lamborghini's Centro Stile design team, led by Luc Donckerwolke. The Coupé variant features a fixed rear window and a sloping roofline that gives it a sleeker appearance.
The interior boasts premium materials such as Alcantara, carbon fiber, and leather. It offers ample legroom for passengers, although the focus remains on providing an exhilarating driving experience rather than practicality. A customizable digital instrument cluster and an 8.3-inch touchscreen display are standard features.
Performance
Powering the LP 610-4 is a naturally aspirated V10 engine producing 610 horsepower (449 kW) at 8,400 rpm and 413 lb-ft (560 Nm) of torque at 6,500 rpm. This inline configuration replaces the traditional V12 setup used in Lamborghini's RWD cars and reduces weight while optimizing power-to-weight ratio.
