Lamborghini's new 631bhp Tecnica version aims to mix the best of the Evo and STO

Huracán broadens its appeal

Carbonfibre engine cover lies flat and is positioned so as to allow for a new vertical rear window, which improves visibility.

New exhaust system, with hardware and software changes, is said to give the engine an aural edge over the STO in the upper reaches of its 8500rpm scope.

Lamborghini has launched the most versatile and ambitious version of the mid-engined Huracán supercar to date.

With styling lightly inspired by the hybridised Sián hypercar, the rear-driven Tecnica will bridge the gap between the Huracán Evo and the hardcore STO when it arrives later this year at an expected asking price comfortably in excess of £200,000.

Chief technical officer Rouven Mohr described it as "more or less a combination of both [existing] cars". As such, the spread of its recalibrated driving modes is broad, with Strada offering the same languid cruising manners as the regular Huracán Evo and Corsa bringing the Tecnica close to the aggression of the STO. However, midway Sport mode will be the new car's ace card, enabling levels of controllable oversteer never before seen in any modern Lamborghini, according to Mohr, who this year returned from Audi for his second stint in Sant'Agata, replacing Maurizio Reggiani (now at the firm's Squadra Corse motorsport division).

Driver confidence is apparently the single most important element of the car's character, with genuinely approachable on-limit handling being the priority.
