In late 2020, Lamborghini unveiled the most outrageous, track-ready version of the Huracan, the STO, in an online event due to the COVID restrictions.

Lamborghini’s name has always been associated with racing. The brand itself has a long history of fast vehicles, starting with the Miura, which was considered by many to be the first genuine supercar. In 2014, the Italian car manufacturer introduced the Huracan lineup, which was refreshed in 2019 in the form of the Huracan Evo. Even though that was a highly respected vehicle, Lamborghini knew that there was one more thing to do. To create a version that could feel more at home around a race track than on regular roads, and that was the STO. The initials were coming from the Super Trofeo Omologato, meaning that the car was race-ready right off the bat. It was even available with a roll cage mounted behind the seats.

The car’s front looked aggressive, sporting a broad trapezoidal-shaped air intake on the lower side. It also featured a carbon fiber splitter and a set of triangular side scoops that cooled the carbon-ceramic front brakes. Unlike any other Huracan ever made, the STO featured a pair of vents on the hood that allowed helped the car get better downforce on the front axle.

From its profile, the STO boasted its 20-inch forged aluminum wheels wrapped in Bridgestone tires. Above the front fenders, the automaker placed exhaust vents that released air trapped inside the wheel wells. Moving on to the side, the wide side sills made from carbon fiber played a role in reducing the ground effect. Then, behind the cabin, there were multiple details that differentiated the STO from the rest of the Huracan range. The most obvious was the scoop above the car’s roof that grabbed air and fed the V10 engine. There was no polycarbonate glass in the rear area because that was heavier. Instead, Lamborghini placed a cover with multiple vents on it. Finally, at the back, the car featured a manually adjustable carbon fiber wing that added more than 50% downforce than the Huracan Performante. The rear fascia featured the same high-mounted sports exhausts integrated into the honeycomb mesh grille at the back. Last but not least, a broad diffuser helped the car stick to the road.

Inside, the automaker removed everything it considered unnecessary. As a result, there were no door handles but straps to pull and close them. There were two manually adjustable Sparco carbon fiber sports seats with just enough padding to prevent their occupants from getting too many bruises. But still, on the center stack, the automaker installed a capacitive touchscreen that controlled the HVAC and the infotainment system that featured Apple CarPlay as an option. Android Auto was unavailable. But Lamborghini didn’t want its car to be stripped of expensive materials, so it covered the seats, the flat-bottom steering wheel, and the dashboard in Alcantara. At the same time, the doors had exposed carbon fiber areas.

But the most essential part of the car was its drivetrain. Lamborghini installed the same 5.2-liter V10 engine behind the cabin but tuned to provide 640 PS (631 hp). It paired it with a seven-speed automatic (dual-clutch) gearbox that was recalibrated to make faster shifts than the transmission installed on the rest of the Huracan range. Since it was mostly a car designed for race tracks, it was available as a rear-wheel drive only via a limited-slip differential.
