2021 Lamborghini Huracan Review

The Huracan Evo primarily features an updated exterior — including new front and rear bumper designs and a relocated exhaust and rear spoiler — that helps keep the Huracan looking as new as it did when it was first unleashed in 2014. For 2021, Lamborghini is adding a rear-wheel-drive version of the Spyder convertible to the mix.

In Edmunds testing, an AWD Huracan Evo coupe rocketed from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds, making it one of the quickest vehicles we have ever tested. Lacking the traction of AWD, the rear-drive Spyder is a little slower, needing a proclaimed 3.5 seconds for the same run (technically 0-100 kph, or 0-62 mph).

So why go with rear-wheel drive if it's slower? Well, it's less expensive, for one. It also promises to give you more of the classic, rear-drive sports car feel when you're behind the wheel.

Regardless of the drive layout, the Huracan Evo features an integrated car control system that brings all of the Huracan's separate systems — steering, braking and traction control — under one computer's roof (the romantically named Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Integrata, or LDVI).

For something that looks so radical, the Huracan Evo is a fairly easy car to just hop in and drive. The gear selector is a prime example. It looks frail and a bit complicated to use but becomes second nature immediately after its first use. It's also no problem to find a comfortable driving position, which is critical in something so fast, so low and so expensive.
