Which Huracan does Edmunds recommend?
Edmunds' Expert Review
Overall rating
Is there such a thing as an entry-level supercar? Though the Huracan's price in the Lamborghini product line puts it into that position, the numerous updates and performance technology it has received since its launch in 2014, which means it has a whole lot more to offer.
Last year Lamborghini introduced the Performante coupe and Spyder models. They provide more power, revised aerodynamics, less weight and an adjustable suspension setup. Instead of the standard model's 571 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque, the Performante's V10 produces 630 hp and 442 lb-ft of torque.
Power is sent to the ground through a dynamic all-wheel-drive system and a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Magnetorheological dampers actively adjust the shock absorbers to maximize control of the wheels for the most traction.
Given the price bracket of the Huracan, it's not surprising that the number of alternatives is small. But noted options include the Audi R8 and the Ferrari 488. Both are mid-engine two-seaters that offer similar levels of excitement but in completely different ways. The 2019 Lamborghini Huracan takes its already excellent analog characteristics and injects just enough technology to make it even more exciting.
2019 Lamborghini Huracan models
The Huracan is available in three configurations, with each configuration available in coupe and convertible (Spyder) form. The LP 580-2 is the base model and, with its rear-wheel-drive setup, the simplest. The LP 610-4 adds a pinch more power but comes with a dynamic all-wheel-drive system. The Performante LP 640-4 features even more power and flashy aerodynamics and bodywork. All are equipped with a non-turbocharged 5.2-liter V10 mounted in a midship configuration and mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
The LP 580-2 is the "entry-level" rear-wheel-drive coupe variant (hence the "-2" in the model name) that's also offered as a convertible (Spyder). It's the leanest and sharpest variant currently available. Here, the V10 engine produces 571 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque. Steel brakes and 19-inch wheels are standard.
All-wheel drive is denoted by the "-4" in LP 610-4. It, too, is offered in convertible form. Lamborghini makes the V10 a bit more powerful with all-wheel drive, and here it cranks out 602 hp and 413 lb-ft of torque. Carbon-ceramic brakes and 20-inch wheels are part of the deal (they're optional on rear-wheel-drive models).
As its name describes, the Performante LP 640-4 and its Spyder sibling have more power and also use all-wheel drive. Thanks to revised tuning and parts, the Performante produces 630 hp and 442 lb-ft of torque. This model features revised aerodynamics for more downforce, tri-color markings on the doors, and unique interior stitching.
Many interior and exterior cosmetic options are available for all versions. The list of substantial hardware options is short by comparison. It includes a suspension with continuously variable dampers, a nose-lifting system, cruise control and variable-ratio steering. Extras in the cabin include navigation and smartphone integration and even an onboard telemetry recorder.

Lamborghini Huracan vs. the competition
Lamborghini Huracan vs. Audi R8
The Audi R8 and the Lamborghini Huracan share similar architecture and powertrains, so you can consider them distant cousins. They both feature non-turbocharged, mid-mounted V10 engines and slick seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions. For most people, the biggest differences between the two will be appearance and style. Either you want the clean elegant lines of the R8 or the bonkers rolling sculpture that is the Huracan.
Lamborghini Huracan vs. McLaren 600LT
If the Huracan is classic artistry, the McLaren 600LT is ultra-chic modernism. Its twin-turbo V8 engine and full carbon-fiber bodywork and chassis are all designed to provide a scientifically proven approach to performance. The Huracan uses a large V10 engine and pure passion to do the same. While it may seem the 600LT has the clear performance edge, the Huracan, especially in Evo form, is more than capable.
Lamborghini Huracan vs. Acura NSX
Compared to the Huracan, the NSX is a veritable bargain, especially considering it comes with a fast and efficient hybrid-electric powertrain. The Huracan's style and non-turbocharged V10 engine are its strong points, but similarly the NSX boasts a smoother ride on the road and ergonomics that are far easier to live with.

Should I lease or buy a 2019 Lamborghini Huracan?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
