The Huracán LP 640-4 Performante is a track-oriented version of Lamborghini’s impressive
modern supercar, unveiled at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show.
Over the standard Huracan, the Performante features new carbon fibre bumpers and side
skirts, an adjustable carbon fibre rear wing and a revised exhaust. Inside, it has new seats
and a digital speedometer similar to that of the Aventador SV.
The Performante's 5.2-litre V10 has been tuned to produce 631 hp and 443 lb⋅ft of torque,
and the weight has decreased by 40 kg, due to the use of forged aluminium and forged
carbon fibre body components. The car is capable of accelerating from 0-62 mph in 2.9
seconds, and will push on to a maximum speed of 200mph.
The car has been stiffened by 10% with new springs, roll bars, and radial axial arm
bushings, while the magnetorheological suspension has been tweaked, and the Lamborghini
Dynamic Steering has been re-calibrated. The Performante utilises Lamborghini's new ALA
(Aerodinamica Lamborghini Attiva) system, which is said to be 80% lighter than regular
sports car hydraulic systems. According to Lamborghini, ALA is also said to provide 750%
more downforce than the standard Huracán.
It comes with a range of desirable equipment as standard, including switchable ‘Strada’,
‘Sport’ and ‘Corsa’ driving modes, carbon ceramic brakes, a 12.3-inch colour TFT display,
tinted glass, electrically adjustable and heated folding door mirrors, Electronic Stability
Control, launch control, LED lights, Alcantara-trimmed bucket seats, a transparent engine
cover, and forged carbon composite kick plates, spoilers and engine bay components.
