The typical lifecycle of mainstream cars is roughly 6 to 7 years, and while some models may exceed that timeframe, it’s uncommon for them to surpass 8 years. In contrast, high-end supercars, boasting price tags in the hundreds of millions, often have a lifespan of around 10 years.

Lamborghini introduced the Huracán in late 2013, making this year its 10th anniversary since its launch as the entry-level supercar from Lamborghini. While it still maintains an exceptionally high level of design quality, it seems the time has come to bid it farewell.

Recently, enthusiasts have spotted more prototypes that many believe to be the successor to the Huracán, sparking heightened anticipation.

Added large ventilation openings on the bonnet (hood).

The prototype’s front end appears similar to the Huracán, with the hexagonal daytime running lights on the front bumper catching the eye. Design elements such as the DLO (Daylight Opening) line, including the triangular delta glass and the hexagonal-shaped side mirrors, continue the legacy of the previous model. The hood vents, reminiscent of the Ferrari 488’s S duct, are expected to enhance front downforce.

The rear end has become even more aggressive
Ultimately, they have incorporated hybrid technology

The rear end follows the design theme of Lamborghini’s flagship model, the Reventón. The exhaust tips are prominently raised and placed between the taillights, while designers significantly enlarged the rear diffuser. The reduction in the rear bumper area boldly showcases the rear tires. The cover, emphasizing the mid-engine layout, seamlessly integrates with the double-bubble roof, adding depth to the design.

Notably, the high-voltage warning sign to the right of the rear license plate suggests that the new vehicle will feature an electrified powertrain. Lamborghini had previously declared its intention to electrify its entire lineup by 2024, and they introduced a V12 hybrid system in the recently released Reventón. So, what engine can we expect in the successor to the Huracán?

It exceeds 800 horsepower in terms of output
When is the expected release date?

According to industry insiders, there’s a significant possibility that the new Huracán model will feature a V8 engine-based plug-in hybrid system instead of the V10 naturally aspirated engine found in the current Huracán. Considering that competitors like the Ferrari 296 GTB and McLaren Artura have already embraced hybrid powertrains to meet Euro 7 emissions regulations, it’s likely that the Huracán will follow suit.

Like the Reventón, it is expected to have one or two electric motors on the front axle, and the total system output is expected to be 838 horsepower. This is over 200 horsepower higher than the previous model and on par with the Ferrari 296 GTB. The release date for the successor to the Huracán, which hasn’t even had its official model name confirmed yet, is likely to be in late 2024 or the first half of 2025.
