Lamborghini previews Huracan Evo in Malaysia

KUALA LUMPUR: A new variant of Lamborghini Huracan Evo has been showcased at Sepang in Malaysia this weekend. The delivery is expected to begin later this year and the first lot is claimed to arrive in the fourth quarter.

The new version comes with a host of design changes like the Y-shaped air intakes and a new front bumper. Moreover, an integrated wing, new side air intakes, and a splitter are the notable design modifications to be mentioned. On its rear, the new sports exhaust system’s twin outlets are placed higher than the rear bumper.

The Lamborghini Huracan Evo is equipped with a 5.2-litre direct-injected naturally-aspirated V10 engine, which resembles the outgoing model, Performante. It can make a maximum power of 640 hp coming at 8,000 rpm, while the peak torque is at 600 Nm, which comes at 6,500 rpm. The power is sent to all the wheels via a seven-speed automatic transmission.

The racing car is capable of speeding up from 0 to 100 kmph in just 2.9 seconds of time span, which is pretty same as the Performante, despite having 40 kg of extra dry weight. It can hit the 200 kmph mark, starting from zero in just 9 seconds. The top-speed, which the Lamborghini Huracan Evo can achieve is 325 kmph.

Inside the car, there are a plethora of colour options available for the Lamborghini Huracan Evo. The variant comes with Alcantara and leather material mix having the Arancio Dryope highlights. It comes with an 8.4-inch capacitive touchscreen equipped with Apple CarPlay connectivity and voice commands. From the touchscreen, one can control the seat and climate adjustment and can also check the LDVI system status. Moreover, there is also an option to get a dual-camera telemetry system along with the high-capacity hard disk.

Pricing details of the Lamborghini Huracan Evo haven’t been revealed yet, but according to Marcus Chye, Lamborghini Kuala Lumpur COO, the base price of the model minus taxes would be approximately same as the outgoing car, at around RM 1.15 million.
