Updating Lamborghini for the Facebook generation.

Updating Lamborghini For The Facebook Generation

"TELL ME SOMEBODY GOT THAT!?!?"

I scan the track walls for the lenses of Lamborghini’s hired shooters and the sky above for a drone I saw earlier. Nope. Nobody appears to have captured my most heroic drift out of a cresting right-hander at Bahrain International Circuit in the new Huracán Evo. Such a pity, too, because Lamborghini has baked a ton of new features into the Evo, expressly for the social media generation.

The Evo reflects the evolution of the Huracán base model. Gone is the Huracán LP610-4 coupe (and that naming convention); every future Huracán variant will be based on the Evo. And what a place to begin, as the Evo upgrades the base coupe with the Performante’s 630-horsepower V-10 and next-generation electromechanicals culled from across the Lamborghini lineup, including torque vectoring, rear-wheel steering, and a new system called Lamborghini Dynamic Vehicle Integration (LDVI).

As you would expect, Evo’s design is evolutionary, as well. The 20-inch Y-spoked wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero rubber are the most obvious tip-off from afar. Only the nose and tail have been tweaked with a front chin spoiler and a small integrated wing in the rear decklid. Repositioning the exhaust system’s twin tips to the middle of the rear fascia doesn’t just look racier. It also provides real estate for a taller, more substantial rear diffuser. There is no large rear wing or ALA active aerodynamics system, but Lamborghini chief technical officer Maurizio Reggiani claims a sixfold improvement in aerodynamic efficiency and seven times more downforce over the Huracán coupe.

2023 Ford F-Series Super Duty

The heavy-duty truck world moves more slowly than other pickup classes, and progress comes in spurts. Take the Ford F-Series Super Duty, whose recent refresh included softer-edged styling, a new entry-level gas-fed V-8, a new high-output 6.7-liter turbodiesel V-8, and myriad small improvements like new bedside steps. Is it still basically the same truck as before? Absolutely, but it’s also a better Super Duty, however incrementally.
