2024 Lamborghini Huracan Expert Review
Reviewed by Bob Hernandez
Although it looks like it could be the supercar of tomorrow, the Huracan is decidedly old-school when it comes to how it makes gobs of power. Breathtaking to both drive and behold, it's the type of car Lamborghini builds best. Mid-engine exotic competitors include the Ferrari F8 and McLaren 720S .

What's New
The Huracan lineup has been fleshed out over the years, gaining the STO for 2021, plus the Tecnica and Sterrato for 2023. For 2024, the sports car is a carryover.
What We Think
All Huracans impress with their remarkable capability. The car delivers commendable power, excellent reflexes, endless grip, and fantastic braking competence. This is Lamborghini at its sports car finest.
But the exotic car isn't perfect. The two-person cabin can feel a little confining. Its infotainment system is overdue for an update. And the Street Driving setting makes the car feel too ordinary.
That said, driving one is a transcendent experience. It may be too expensive for the average enthusiast, but those lucky enough to have taken one for a spin know what a special car this is.
Performance and MPGs
Every Huracan features a 5.2-liter naturally aspirated V-10 and seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Both RWD models—the Tecnica and racecar-for-the-street STO—develop 630 horsepower and 417 lb-ft of torque. All 2024s return the same fuel economy, 13/18 mpg city/highway.
Huracan AWDs include the gravel-ready Sterrato, which develops 602 hp and 414 lb-ft of torque. The most powerful 2024 is the open-top Evo Spyder. It delivers output of 630 hp and 443 lb-ft of torque.
The Most Pointless and Wonderful Huracan Yet
While Porsche has the new 911 Dakar, say hello to the Huracan Sterrato. To make the most of the trails, ride height is up, power is down to 602 hp, and there's a new Rally mode. After we drove one, we called it one of the most fun and lighthearted Lamborghinis ever made. Why? Read on here.
How Quick Is the Huracan?
The last three Huracans we've tested made the sprint to 60 mph in under 3 seconds. The quickest is the 2020 Evo, which registered a blazing 0-60 mph in just 2.5 seconds, narrowly missing being one of our 10 fastest cars ever. Both a 2021 Huracan STO and 2023 Tecnica launched to 60 mph in a slower 2.8 seconds.
Technology
The Huracan's standard technology is modest for a so-called supercar. An 8.4-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay compatibility, and voice-activated controls are included. A vehicle front-end lifting system and parking sensors are available via package, as is a telemetry system for anyone interested in documenting sessions at the track.
Trim Levels and Prices
The 2024 Lamborghini Huracan is available with four trims this year: Tecnica, Sterrato, Evo Spyder, and STO. Coupe pricing starts at $249,865 for the Tecnica and climbs to $344,778 for the STO. As for the topless Evo AWD, it features an MSRP of $302,939.
