Lamborghini Huracan Model Year 2016 Product Updates

I wonder if any of this is software only and we can get some of the benefits.

Of course it is.
In fact, sometimes I wonder if they actually do anything at all; who can notice a 10 or 20 hp difference between one car to another?
Seeing how VW/Audi is the biggest cheater in the car business who can believe anything they say now!

That is correct,it is all in the tune.A custom aftermarket tune will pull a easy 50 Hp.out of a Huracan.....Turbine car 100(Porsche Turbos)...All Lambo (all of them)does is bump it up a little each year to allow the sale people to say the new car has xxx more Hp. Truth is,these cars are so fast for street cars that it really does not matter on the street and a driver would never actually feel the difference.

Frankly, I cannot argue with you there.

Huracan horsepower going up ?
We will find out in about 10 days.
Lamborghini will allegedly unveil a rear-wheel drive Huracan at Los Angeles Auto Show

All my sources point to a LP580-2, and It would be safe to assume that the weight is going down by the simple fact that it has a lot less standard features. We already have our Demo one in production with a delivery date of January 2016. If there is something else in the works that will be unveiled Nov. 17th then I should be receiving an email about it any day now.

Please keep up posted Lex! We appreciate your input!

Lexx:
Didn't the car have this switch?

Attachment 2417

Don't confuse stop/start with cylinder deactivation. They're 2 separate functions. Deactivation is on all 2016 and can't be defeated, whereas stop/start (and the dash switch) is not available in US/Canada Huracans.

Lexx,
I would have to agree it will be the (entry-level) LP580-2, since Lamborghini has already taken orders for the LP580-2. And, some of those customers have already seen it, and were given a spring delivery date.

My prediction is that another semi-performance 2WD version (an SE) with some modified add-ons like a different rear diffuser plus a wing, a paint scheme, and a ~10/20 horsepower bump up will be introduced late in 2016 as a special edition with a premium price above the LP610-4. (This has been alluded to.)

Then, they will up the power of the standard LP610-4 with those extra ~10/20 ponies for the 2017MY. The same modus operandi they used with the Gallardo!
Much ado about nothing until a real Superleggera is introduced later down the road.
This is the usual VAG marketing bait to sell cars.
Nothing to see here... Move along, folks.

Agreed. I didn't see any mention in the press release about stop/start; only cylinder deactivation was mentioned.
But, I thought deactivation is not in use when the Anima is in Sport or Corsa?

Superleggera Huracan,now you are talking...That will be my next Huracan because it will have significant performance improvements,not marketing improvements for sales.You can bet their will be no start stop or turning off half the cylinders on that car.I can not imagine anyone that buys a Lamborghini wanting their car to turn off at a red light and for half the cylinders to turn off.Also,who cares about gas if you can afford a Lambo...

Their is no power increase for the 16s at all and the redlines are exactly the same on the 15s and 16s.That is 8250 RPM,no matter what the Tachometer Display says....
Again,glad to have a 15 before they started with the eco friendly stuff,which ok on a regular car,bit not a Lamborghini...

[Rubuntu]

HURACAN,
Dream on, brotha' ... New fuel mileage regulations demand cylinder deactivation; Superleggera will have it, too!
(BTW ...Press release says nothing about stop/start for North American versions).

Nobody said there was a power increase for 16'...BUT, Lexx confirmed the redline is now at 8700rpm!! Wild screaming revs in comparison to those 15's.
According to your way of thinking: This car can go 280mph, no matter what the Speedometer Display says!!
