God damn this car is good looking.
This thing looks so modern and stunning that it's almost unbelievable. I don't know if I'd take it over a 458 Italia but I wouldn't mind having one. Usually I wouldn't even care to own a Lamborghini.
Laughed when he tactfully said that the Chinese are shitty drivers. To everyone saying that this is a boring looking car... keep in mind the 10000 variants and special editions that are going to come along during the next 10+ years it's going to be around.

No Name The way I see it with the Aventador and now the Huracan is that Lamborghini is intentionally holding back so they can leave room for improvements in the updated models. The Aventador for example doesn't have direct injection or a dual clutch, which is what they'll probably add in an Superveloche model. The Huracan looks boring, but then they can make some wild variant of it down the line with updated body work (Superleggera). Seems like they're holding back on purpose so they don't have to work too hard to improve the cars down the line.

I think the thing Lamborghini was thinking is that in the real world you have a lot of young and rich Chinese that buy these kind of cars, and yes, sometimes just lose it and crash them.
I think it looks great. Manages to carry the new Lamborghini DNA from the Aventador while looking elegant and not as show offy. Also to all the keyboard drivers going on about how the McLaren or the Ferrari is faster and so on. If you put 20 drivers into a Ferrari 458 and tell them to keep up with the Huracan, maybe 1 will keep up? And that guy would have to be a bloody good driver. Also not alot of supercar owners take there supercars on track days. It's why if actually went to a track day you will see a load of Porsche GT3 RS's, some Caterhams, Some M3's/M5's, Maybe a hot hatch (Normally it's a Renault RS), maybe 1 or 2 supercars (The only supercars I ever saw were Gallardo's and 1 F430) and a few special cars (Maybe someone brought a Radical or a Peugeot 205 T16). So not only does the Huracan look amazing but also the performance is way more accessible to the majority of the buyers compared to the McLaren or the Ferrari. Plus it's safer then both of those cars which unfortunately for all those keyboard drivers makes it a worse car (?).

You are glorifying the AWD way too much. Just because the 458 and 12c are RWD doesn't mean they are impossible to drive fast for a "lesser" driver. Yes the AWD will help but the traction control systems today are SO good that the differences aren't that big. If you're in the middle of a corner in a 458 and put your foot down the car won't give you full throttle until you've straightened up the wheel, for example. What you wrote was true 15 years ago. Today, not so much.

Speednote10 I don't think I'm glorifying the 4WD too much. That's what I mean with the 4WD, "If you're in the middle of a corner in a 458 and put your foot down the car won't give you full throttle until you've straightened up the wheel, for example." - In the Huracan it will let you use all the power hence why it will be faster for way more people. I'm not saying the 458 and the 650S are impossible to drive fast without being a racing driver, I'm saying it's very hard for a normal supercar buyer to be as fast as the Huracan while driving the 458 (He can probably keep up/beat the Huracan as it's just so fast).

Are you really comparing this brand new Huracan to a 5 years old Ferrari 458? So even yourself can understand then how amazingly good a 458 is still today, especially when the Speciale version is a whole second quicker on the 0-124 mph, i love Lamborghini's the Aventador is definetely in my top 5 cars but this should have been much faster and exciting than it is now, and Ferrari should reveal a 458 successor in less than a year and a half btw..

Hey I'm Chinese, and its only been the past decade where we have seen a huge boom in first time car ownership in China, so naturally such a powerful car for a majority market should take safety first.
The Huracan is absolutely beautiful, just like the aventador! Lamborghini are killing it at the moment :))

The whole car looks sensational. To me, the styling of the Huracan is truly inspired from the 2.5 million dollars Sesto Elmento concept car which is so drop dead gorgeous. I needed her indeed.
It doesn't compare to a Speciale Steve but it does compare to a standard 458 and judging from the review, it loses that comparison. And the 458 is a 5 year-old car. All this make me feel disappointed with Lamborghini. Especially since the Aventador is fantastic!
Love the looks, when you go of the throttle, it makes the best noise ever.
Very nice point of view. Well done.
nice ^^ this feels like a testvideo again, not like an advert like the ones with the Corvette and 650S

However the rest of the car, I think, looks brilliant!! I love how 'pointy' the front is, how it's looking down on you despite being so low.

Thanks for the honest review. I was planning on ordering in spring but I never really was in love with the back and now that I truly know about the electronics I think I'll just wait a couple years and see how huracan develops
what are the sighs for?
The sheepish expression at 6.30 when he says 'it does also sound quite Audi' I think really sums it up, we don't want to be disappointed with a lambo but it can't be helped, I remember being more excited when the toyota gt 86 came out !!
Funny how Lamborghini almost always name it's cars after Spanish words despite being an Italian-German company and even funnier how we Britons go in millions to Spain every year yet most of us still don't speak a s*** of Spanish, being the world's second most important language. The name of the car, Huracán, is pronounced Uh-rah-kahn, the H at the beginning of words is mute in Spanish. Love those Malaga roads. Cheers.

This car is growing on me. Not many cars could look so good in orange, V10 sounds great. Looking forward to seeing the spyder version...
Love the front end, hate the back end
Love the color and the car.
LOL at 1:53ish it sounded like it farted, haha!
I like a lot about this car but I couldn't help noticing that at 8:26, the pedals are exactly the same as those in my friend's 8 year old GLI. That's not so good is it?
That V10 is working wonders!
Thanks a million for saying that this is not 458 speciale rival or 650s. I want this for everyday winter driving in baby blue with black wheels, a spoiler and much louder exhaust.
Pure beauty the rear could have been more extreme its a bit boring but the smooth design is refreshing
I like the sound and I like the look of the front, but the rear looks to round I think they should have some vents or something to make it more interesting

after looking at this review i truly have so much appreciation for the 458 and the LP series .. this car is a joke
Definately the classiest Lamborghini yet. The design of the front end oozes charisma. If this is what the new Huracan looks like, then I cant wait to see what the Aventador replacement will look like, since no doubt it will take its looks from the Huracan. But for now I would actually still choose an Aventador over the Huracan, since you cant beat the sense of theater of the Aventador. This color looks great on the car. Lamborghinis look the best in outragious colors since Lamborghinis themselves look outragious. And just like with the Ferrari 458, they have finally nailed the design of the headlamps. This is so important, since the headlamps of a car give the car its character. Very refined exhaust note. Not as good as a Ferrari signature exhaust note but better sounding than a McLaren P1. If Steve says that the car does not allow you total freedom and the electronics are always helping you out behind the scenes, then that is a sign of the German engineering influence at Lamborghini, since it seems that German engineering tends to take away a bit of the passion of driving and substitute it for precision electronically aided handling. It seems that the priority in German supercar engineering is always precision handling over everything else. This seems to be the case with the Porsche 918 too.
an awesome car, inside and out =)
They did not want the Journalist bringing back bald tires
Looks too much like a Murcielago in my opinion. Rear-third behind the doors is almost a carbon copy of the other car. And if you change the headlights then the front view is basically a SV Murcielago with body colored splitters... MY taste says that it's way too smooth and it lacks places for eyes to stop and take in the shape.
the car looks great!
Once again 458 Italia Special is the benchmark of super car.
beautiful car
I love the red cover over the start switch, like you are going to get in the car and accidentally start it. Nice car and only 3 times what I paid for a Corvette stingray.
I'm not sure about the back but the rest totally pleases my eyes. great car.
Exhaust note sounds smoother than aventador with the exception of the burble. Sounds amazing I wonder how the exhaust note differers from an R8 v10
Whats this, the Boringhini R8?
i filmed a film crew filming the lamborghini huracan at the nurburgring two weeks ago. it was a speed test huracan vs 440hp golf24 vs porsche
Gorgeous.

Reventon/Aventador/Countach //Double QuadroVal- I love in my park
Sweet ride but the rear end looks a bit off - not sure what it is but it seems a bit too simple / boring.
Hopefully they will update new rear when they do an upgrade on the huracan in a few years Hopefully more aggressive looking
looks so much better than those silly one offs eg reventon
speciale or huracan which one best ?
I love it..the front end alone is enough to sell your lungs for..just enough 02 in your body left to jump in it..start her up and redline it before you blackout. Magnifico
i agree with the r8 sound. i looked up components of the engine itself and compared with the r8 and were very similar. the last few years Lamborghini has been taking many ideas and concepts from other companies, i think they should goo back to their old style and ideas
Too watered down for a supercar, I'd have a 458 any day over this.
1:32 I was wondering what made VW stray from the bottom hinged accelerator in the new GTI. The gas and brake pedal in this Huracan are the same as the MK6 GTI. I know Lamborginis use parts from their corporate cousins but a GTI pedal setup is beyond cheap. That being said, I have always liked pedal setup and thought it belonged in a more expensive car, and here it is.
Steve Sutcliffe is just a really, really good reviewer.
The launch Huracan still the prettiest
The part where he passes a sign that says 10 km/h limit :P

Huracen looks are growing on me. I now absolutely love the front. Back is acceptable. That engine is fantastic, so happy it's not got any hybrid turbo deactivation regeneration bullshit. Hail Lamborghini for not doing what Ferrari is doing!
I hope Lamborghini do a rwd version like with the gallardo balboni special
Sounds a bit like the SRT Viper '13, but a bit more refined and not muffled. He's right, sounds Audi 'ish (not a bad thing). It has a deeper engine rev sound than the Gallardo did.
Lamborghini basics - sensational, sophisticated and genuinely fast.

I think something about 500 HP no ABS no ESP no Electronical BS! That is what Lambo was about MADNESS, where the Ferrari was fast and gorgeous to look at mostly quite sophisticated too, Lamborghinis were about heart and soul character and stuff ;-) For me it seems like many modern cars lost this "character" unfortunately!

unfound23 You've been watching too many reviews and listening to journalists. Lamborghinis sure were mad, but don't think Ferraris in those days were easy to drive either. The F40 had turbo lag and when boost came on, people crashed. The F50 was just a detuned F1 engine and no easier to drive than the F40, probably harder. You're right about one thing though, cars have lost soul and character. I don't really see massive appeal with modern day supercars, it could be just I'm old fashioned or it could be that most have that mass-produced feeling to them.
Huracan + Quicksilver exhaust = Many many speeding tickets!

I remember the original Gallardo looking a bit dull and being disappointed by it. The LP540 and LP560 added nice, subtle, Reventon influenced, changes, that gave the car a much more sleek finish. Here is hoping that this car gets the same treatment.
Gosh... Those engine notes. *swoons*
Anybody old enough can remember the Euro cliche's. "American cars are great in a straight line", but you have to be fast on the track. Or obstacle course. Or braking was a big thing in the 90's when I lived over there. Now the Z07 is about to take the record back at Nurimburg. A production car, that you see everyday.
Im not to sure on the instrument screen :s
The more I look at it the more I like it.
it's like all these reviewers have been told by lamborghini or someone not to directly compare this car with the regular 458, that's why they're all talking about the 650s and the speciale which are clearly better cars.
