Meet the Tecnica: Lamborghini’s latest Huracán supercar

Lamborghini’s new Huracán Tecnica is versatile. It’s something to bridge the gap between road and track.

You can think of the Tecnica as a supercar for that rich owner that knows they’re not good enough to go racing but still wants to flex their wealth on the Huracán Evo drivers. You know, the chumps they are.

The Tecnica is still seriously cool. It doesn’t have any hybrid or electric bits-and-bobs interfering with the powertrain. Instead, all 465kW of grunt comes directly from a naturally aspirated 5.2-litre V10.

The car’s top speed is a reported 325 km/h, and it will only take 3.2 seconds to reach 100 from a standing start.

An important side note here. All those stats are recorded in the most extreme drive mode, Corsa. Two other, slightly tamer modes are available, as is standard on all Huracáns.

Like the race-ready STO Huracán, the Tecnica is solely rear-wheel drive. The power gets from the engine to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and an electronically controlled limited-slip diff.

The rear wing is fixed, giving the Tecnica a 35 per cent increase in downforce over its Evo brother. Likewise, the entire back end has had a design redo, which Lamborghini says makes the Tecnica more aerodynamically efficient.

Slowing you down are carbon-ceramic brakes. The 20-inch wheels are wrapped in Bridgestone semi-slicks.

The inside is rather bare. It’s a far cry from the carbon-heavy STO interior, although it still has some racer elements here and there. The green is a bit much, so hopefully, owners have many different colour options to choose from.

No pricing information is revealed, but orders are open.

If the Tecnica is still not your thing, Lamborghini plans to make at least one more Huracán. That car is said to be a high-rider and more off-roady, catering to the more adventurous millionaire.
