The world of jacked-up supercars comprises two models: the Porsche 911 Dakar and the Lamborghini Huracan Sterrato. And the Italian automaker is about to make its proposal a bit more special with a bespoke example sporting several enhancements over the regular one.
Teased on the Sant'Agata Bolognese's social media, the vehicle is described as "a one-of-a-kind masterpiece" that may or may not add the Unica (Italian for unique) suffix. The supercar will be unveiled today, August 4, 2023, and we cannot wait to see what it is.
From the two short videos released by Lamborghini, it appears that it will have a unique blue paint finish, perhaps with a forged carbon twist. Either that, or the blue light tricked us, and it could sport a different hue. It appears that the Italian exotic car maker also gave it a special logo that says 'Opera Unica for Porto Cervo 2023,' and we reckon they haven't stopped there, as it could feature additional goodies to set it apart from the rest of the Huracan Sterrato lineup.
We also cannot tell you if this bespoke creation is part of the 1,499 units that will see the light of day or if it is car #1,500. Chances are it was commissioned by one of Lambo's deep-pocketed clients, as we doubt it will be up for grabs as soon as it debuts. In case you forgot, the Huracan lineup is sold out until the end of production, and its yet-unnamed successor is due in 2024, CEO Stephan Winkelmann has confirmed. Thus, the best way to get one is to search the used car market. Nonetheless, you will likely get it at a premium. When the Sterrato was still available, it used to start at almost $280,000 in the US.
As for some of the stuff that sets it apart, you're looking at more inches between its belly and the road, exclusive suspension with longer-travel shocks, black cladding, a pair of lights attached to the nose, roof rails, and exclusive wheels and tires. The Rally driving mode is another thing that's limited to the Huracan Sterrato, joining the recalibrated Strada and Sport modes.
Powering it is the same 5.2-liter V10 engine found on the rest of the Huracan range. In this case, the naturally aspirated engine develops 601 hp (610 ps/449 kW). The torque stands at 413 lb-ft (560 Nm), and it's delivered to the all-wheel drive system with a mechanical self-locking differential through a seven-speed DCT. The all-road model, which is the brand's second most versatile vehicle after the Urus super crossover, has a top speed rated at roughly 160 mph or 260 kph, and it takes 3.4 seconds to accelerate to sixty-two miles per hour (100 kph) from zero.
