REVIEW: The Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato is the rough-and-ready swansong for the company's staple supercar – is it a fitting send off?
, the last and perhaps most entertaining variant of the company’s staple supercar.
A tired durability prototype was resuscitated and given raised suspension, and everyone who drove it, initial sceptic or otherwise, was a convert. So here we are. Of the Huracns still to be built before the car goes out of production at the end of next year, a third – 1499 – will be Sterratos. n coupé, raised by 44mm and given 25% softer springs and an additional 35% and 25% suspension travel. The track is 30mm and 34mm wider and the wheelbase 9mm longer.
Our drive consists of two parts. First is a straightforward, speed-very-much-limited road drive; the second a rallycross stage.n-spec interior, whose only notable nods to being a Sterrato are the switch for the spotlights, some instrumentation changes and a new ‘Rally’ calibration on the drive mode selector. Those aside, the naturally aspirated 5.2-litre V10, Lamborghini’s last, fires with a noisy bark to a loud idle.
For the second part of the drive, Mohr has two instructions. “First, enjoy. And second, go sideways.” The circuit is half asphalt; half dust, sand and gravel. And the car is a hoot. Lamborghini suggests Sport mode for the Tarmac section and Rally for the loose, but the latter just leaves the stability control and ABS more lenient, so moves around beautifully on hard surfaces too.
