Lamborghini Huracán STO review: hardcore supercar on track
Where does that leave us? Is it good or not?
At £260 grand, the STO is a decent daily driver more than the Performante. But then a McLaren 765LT is 280, and an AMG Black £335,000, so it’s not the most ridiculous pricing ever. Plus, the kinds of people interested in this car aren’t likely to have an overdraft that they’re aware of. And there’s just something absolutely mental about Lamborghini making a car that is so compromised for the road, just so that you can drive it to the track and stay with stuff that comes with slicks and a trailer. This side of an Aventador SVJ - which is likely slower but completely bonkers - the STO provides the kind of slightly silly, joyous driving experience that feels like it’s about to hit its nadir. Cars like this won’t survive - and they certainly won’t be the fastest things available if they do - but for the sheer thrill of driving, of hearing a piston engine scream its way past 8,000rpm, the STO is absolutely magical. Ok, so it’s a bit of a clown in the way it looks, but order one in a slightly less in-yer-face colour scheme, and this is one of the best, most exciting, least po-faced cars Lamborghini has ever produced. It doesn’t take itself entirely seriously, and it’s the better for that.

Lamborghini Huracán STO review: hardcore supercar on track Reviews 2023 | Top Gear
First of all, remind us of what this is all about then? It’s about as subtle as a punch in the eyeball is what it is. Lamborghini’s most track-attack Huracán ever, descended from the DNA of the Super Trofeo race cars - hence the ‘STO’ name (Super Trofeo Omologata) - and a road car that...

Lamborghini Huracan Evo by Paolo Troilo
At La Bullona in Milan, the artwork known as "Minotauro" (Minotaur) was unveiled: myth, body of a man and bull, expressed in painting on the bodywork of a Huracán EVO.
The work is an expression of the dynamism, power, and innermost emotions that the artist experienced while driving the Huracán EVO, portrayed through the powerful features of a man's body created by Paolo Troilo's fingertips.
Paolo Troilo's constantly-evolving painting uses the representation of the male body as its defining element and a means of communication. The work, entitled "Minotauro", owes its name to the mix of emotion and meaning that the artist experienced when he encountered Lamborghini.
"It was inspiring to meet Paolo Troilo and his artistic expressiveness. In our company we are accustomed to art and the way it has always influenced our cars," commented Christian Mastro, Marketing Director at Automobili Lamborghini. "However, when our product and the emotions it brings come together with the sensibilities of an artist like Troilo, something different and exceptionally unique like 'Minotauro' is created, and we are very proud of this."

Lamborghini Huracán Not Done Yet, We Could Finally See Off-Road Version
Lamborghini revealed the STO as the most hardcore offering in the Huracán range but by the sounds of things, they are not finished as bosses hinted at more special-edition variants on the way.
While talking to Australian media, Chief technical officer Maurizio Reggiani hinted that something radically different to the track-focused STO was in the pipeline.
“We are full of ideas … and we will never give up in order to see what the potential [that] this fantastic base of the Huracán – with the V10 naturally-aspirated [engine], and a chassis that is one of the best in terms of performance – can … have in the future”, said Reggiani.
“This is a question mark that I leave to you, but I think we will see soon something different.”
So what could this something different be? Well, Drive recently uncovered some European trademark filings for Huracán Sterrato and Huracán Tecnica variants – the former hinting to a production version of 2018’s Huracan Sterrato concept, an off-road-ready, high-riding version of the all-wheel-drive supercar.

Lamborghini Huracán STO: Drive It Like You Own It
If you're wondering, STO stands for 'Street Touring Orgasm."
But perhaps that’s Lamborghini’s subtle way of ensuring that STO owners make proper use of this stupendously capable machine. The starting price of $331,533 hasn’t been a deterrent, as the waiting list is over a year long. Might I make a suggestion to those patient buyers? Spend the year honing your track skills. Because once you take delivery of an STO, it’s the only place you’ll want to be.

Lamborghini Huracán STO: Drive It Like You Own It - Jalopnik
One of the world’s biggest travesties is that most supercars spend the majority of their entire lives in captivity. Ferraris snoozing in heated garages. McLarens parked on Rodeo Drive. And Lamborghinis? Imagine a cavalcade of them bumper-to-bumper along A1A, slowly inching forward. If these cars...

Off-Roading Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato Spotted Testing
If you are in the market for a Lamborghini with some raised suspension but don’t want the Urus you are out of luck, for now.
It seems Lamborghini is testing the adventurous Huracán we have come to know as the Sterrato and judging by this fresh batch of spy shots, it would appear a production version is coming later this year.
The Italian manufacturer has promised to reveal four products this year and since the Aventador has finally retired, it can only mean variants of the Huracán as well as a Urus facelift and maybe a one-off for a VIP customer. We think the chances of seeing the Huracán Sterrato becoming official in the next few months are very high.
We first saw the Huracán Sterrato concept in 2019 and now we get to see a prototype being put through its paces in the snow.

Lamborghini Sterrato off-road supercar spotted testing
Originally shown in concept form in 2019, the rugged supercar now appears destined for production
A prototype version of the Lamborghini Sterrato off-road supercar has been pictured testing in public for the first time.
The Sterrato (Italian for ‘dirt road’) was first revealed in concept form in 2019 as a more rugged version of the Lamborghini Huracán Evo. At the time, a Lamborghini spokesperson said that despite at least one functioning car having been built, there were no plans to put the model into production.
Now, the appearance of a lightly disguised test mule suggests it may eventually be offered to customers after all.
Visually, the Sterrato has a far higher ground clearance than the Huracán Evo. It has been fitted with an air intake on the roof, as well as a set of roof rails. The front bumper has also been reinforced with a stone guard, and an LED light bar fitted to the bonnet. It does not yet feature the concept's extended wheel arches, which Lamborghini previously hinted could be 3D printed were the car to enter production.
The original Sterrato concept was powered by the same 5.2-litre naturally aspirated V10 as the Huracán Evo, producing 631bhp and sending power to both axles via a seven-speed automatic gearbox. It is expected that a customer version of the Sterrato would retain the Huracán's rear-wheel steering set-up but gain an adapted version of the Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Integrata (LDVI) drive mode system that's more effective at finding grip on low-traction surfaces.

Pregnant woman rewards husband with Lamborghini
Newborn babies and a lack of sleep are not uncommon. However, this story took a different turn after a woman decided to rather ‘reward’ her husband for the turbulence that awaits him after the baby’s birth with a Lamborghini.
A pregnant woman decided to buy her husband a Lamborghini worth $650 000 (roughly R9.7 million) as a reward for the long, sleepless nights that are on the horizon.
The woman, 19-year-old Anes Ayuni Osman, is a successful cosmetics entrepreneur from Kelantan, reports TNP.
