Lamborghini may have not brought too many examples of the Huracan to the streets yet, but this doesn’t mean that Raging Bull afficionados aren’t already dreaming about future special editions. Case in point with the adjacent renderings, which show us a possible appearance for the potential future Huracan Superleggera.
Sant’Agata Bolognese obivously hasn’t mention anything about such a version, but as the Huracan will age, it will most likely follow the Gallardo down this path. We’ll remind you the Gallardo actually had two Superleggera incarnations, targeting the pre- and post- facelift models.
Aside from sounding cool, “superleggera” means ultra light in Italian. For the Gallardo, this brought a weight reduction of up to 100 kg (lbs). The Huracan may use a lighter aluminium and carbon structure, but the aforementioned value is some sort of a standard in the supercar industry, also being followed by special editions coming from the likes of Ferrari and Porsche. This means we can expect a similar diet for the Huracan.
The Huracan Superleggera will most likely go further down the power-to-weight ratio improvement path, with a hp bump. The two Gallardo editions worked more in a psychological manner when it came to this, only bringing 10 extra horses. Still, the reworked ECU maps made the naturally-aspirated V10, which is not to far from the Huracan’s engine, more lively across the rev range.
The mandatory carbon fiber armour is here, but the renderings, which come from Hansen Art, show a pair of roof air intakes, an element that’s not likely to make it into the actual car. Just like the side air intakes on the Murcielago LP LP670-4 SV, these use an asymmetrical profile. If Lamborghini designers do decided to put such elements into production one day, it will be on a potential Huracan Super Trofeo Stradale, the road-going incarnation of the Huracan Super Trofeo racecar that’s currently being developed. Nonetheless, we are enough years away from such a special edition.
As for the Huracan Superleggera, this should arrive in about three years from now.
