Lamborghini has revealed the new Huracán LP 620-2 Super Trofeo, a racer based on the Gallardo replacement.
The new GT3-specification racing car uses an uprated version of the road car’s 5.2-litre V10 engine. In this guise it produces 611bhp, only a 9bhp advantage. However, it is also 250kg lighter, thanks to a greater use of carbonfibre and aluminium in its chassis construction. One major difference however is that the Super Trofeo is rear-wheel drive. The standard Huracán has a four-wheel drive chassis, as did the previous Gallardo-based racer.
"The Huracán Super Trofeo is an all-new car built from scratch with a clear racing concept. We believe it will be as fun for fans to watch as it will be rewarding for our racers to drive," said Maurizio Reggiani, Lamborghini’s research and development boss.
