In case anybody needed proof that the Huracan is, by far, the most practical four-wheeled creation to have ever worn a Lamborghini badge, we’re here to supply that. Look no further than the image above, which shows a Huracan fighting a toreador in the arena.
The picture is as real as they get, coming from Alvaro Matas Photography. The action took place earlier this month at Toro, Castilla y Leon in Spain. The Huracan was joined in the arena by group of about fifteen members of the Gallardo breed.

Last time we checked, tauromachy involved a group of toreadors and one bull, but it seems that this... automotive Raging Bull cosplay scene turned things around.

Still, the Huracan appears to be the only one doing the fighting here and that makes full sense. For one thing, it tops the Gallardo thanks to its AWD that features electronic control. Enough to give it an important grip advantage in this game. Then there’s the Lamborghini Doppia Frizione double clutch transmission, which is much more suitable for these autocross-like manoeuvres compared to the Gallardo’s e-gear. But we’re getting too serious here.

We’re rather fond of what we see here - in fact, we’d love to see this replace traditional bullfighting. As you can see in the gallery below, where a Lamborghini Islero is playing with a Matador, the idea itself has been around since the 1960s. It’s just that the toreadors might be frightened by the Huracan’s sports exhaust...
