This black Lamborghini Huracan Evo with a black and red cabin is based in Orange County. It is the quickest Huracan we run at 2.9 seconds to sixty, and the only closed Evo in our fleet, built for a client dinner in Irvine without the car becoming the topic of the meal. Book it for the updated chassis without an open roof.
Evo is the significant update to the Huracan, and the changes are in the chassis rather than the badge. Rear wheel steering arrives, turning the car in more sharply at low speed and stabilising it at speed, while a predictive control system called LDVI reads what you are doing and sets the dampers and torque split before the car needs them. Run it up Santiago Canyon Road and power is up to 631 horsepower with sixty falling to 2.9 seconds, the quickest Huracan we run. It feels less nervous and more willing than the earlier coupe, which is not a sentence people expect to hear about a Lamborghini.
Black with a black and red cabin gives you the darkest Huracan in our fleet, and one that depends entirely on how you light it. There is no colour to carry a frame, so the aerodynamics, the exhaust exits and the hexagonal detailing have to do it, and they only show up under directional light. Shoot it in the evening, under a lit forecourt in Costa Mesa, or inside a parking structure in Irvine. Open a door and the red stitching becomes the accent the exterior shots lack. Shot carelessly at noon over Newport it disappears into a silhouette.
This is the quickest Huracan we run at 2.9 seconds to sixty, and the only closed Evo in the fleet, our other two Evo cars are both Spyders. It is also the only black Huracan coupe we keep, where our two older coupes are green and pink. Book it when you want the updated chassis and the rear wheel steering without the roof mechanism, and without the car reading as a colour statement in an Irvine boardroom parking lot. The Spyders trade a little of this car's edge for an open roof, this one keeps all of it.
This is a Lamborghini Huracan Evo coupe in black over a black and red cabin, based in Orange County. The Evo update brings rear wheel steering, the LDVI predictive chassis system, a reworked front splitter, larger intakes, and the 631 horsepower version of the 5.2 litre naturally aspirated V10, all standard on this trim. It also carries the 8.4 inch portrait touchscreen with gesture control and Apple CarPlay, though not Android Auto. All wheel drive, a seven speed dual clutch gearbox and carbon ceramic brakes carry through the range. This is our only closed Evo, where the other two Evo cars we run are Spyders.
