El Birth of the Lamborghini Huracan it marked a turning point in the house of Sant'Agata Bolognese. With him, the brand was reunited with those customers who thought they had lost their essence. Moreover, although its DNA was shared with the Audi R8, the similarities that united them were hardly noticeable. There was only one element that could ruin everything and in the end it did not happen. Its about V10 block that they shared, although with more anger in the Italian.
With everything, the current generation of the Lamborghini Huracan is coming to an end and in the Volkswagen Group they are already working on a new one. Rumors about how it can be have been going around the network for a long time. But it was not until this summer that Rouven Mohr, CTO of the brand, revealed some details. The most important is the fact that will debut a plug-in hybrid powertrain and an engine between 6 and 12 cylinders. And a little more…
The heart of the next Lamborghini Huracan could be a V8 Twin-Turbo Hybrid Boost…
That the next Hurricane would make this leap was more than evident. The reason is very simple: high-flying supercars too have to comply with emissions regulations and this happens through electrification. And well, the guys from Motor Trend have echoed new data that, for better or worse, illustrate what would be the way forward. As they seem, the V10 block will "die" in favor of a V8 more modern and similar to the one mounted on the Urus.
But this would be one of the lesser evils, since everything indicates that between the V8 heat engine and the transmission would go an electric motor. In this way, it would become a plug-in hybrid from which, for now, no one has access to your information. However, this source indicates that the ICE engine would be equipped with two turbochargers that upon reaching 7.000 rpm they would be activated and that below that figure the engine would work as if it were an atmospheric one.
In addition, they also dare to indicate that the red line of the tachometer would be at 10.000 rpm. However, it is not very clear what the contribution of the electrical system would be or how they would configure the all-wheel drive. This part is perhaps the most complex to unravel, although there are already those who say that the next Huracan would be developed on an evolution of the current platform and not on the new basis that the next Audi R8 will use.
Hence all rumors indicate that the new Lamborghini Huracan will grow in size and it will be heavier. In any case, these data are not confirmed and to clear up doubts there are still a few months. Until 2024 to be exact, so it's better not to lose your temper...
