Lightbulb 2021 Lamborghini Huracan STO

*gulp

With all of Squadra Corse's go-fast know-how coursing through its oil passages, the Huracán STO is best seen as a pseudo-homologation road variant of the Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo EVO and GT3 EVO race cars. It's right there, in the name—
Super Trofeo Omologata.
The largest lump of changes took place on the exterior, where an entirely new set of duds use more than 75-percent carbon fiber in their construction. Much like the race cars, the Huracán STO's front and rear fender/bumper segments are one single clamshell-like piece, inspired partially by the legendary Miura that kicked off the mid-engine supercar trend for good. Aside from the single-piece construction, each fascia and surface is upgraded for airflow, and works in tandem with a wicked dorsal-fin spine and roof intake that spoil and redirect air toward the massive rear wing.

For the handful of trackrats who get their hands on a 2021 Lamborghini Huracán STO of their own, the rear wing has a manually adjustable rear foil that quick-sets different track profiles. With all the extra wing, spoilers, angles, and intakes, airflow efficiency is up 37 percent and downforce by 53 percent when compared with a Huracán Performante, according to Lamborghini. Of course, with all of this extra "stick," cornering speeds increase, so the chassis is requisitely enhanced as well. Aside from a slightly increased track, stiffer suspension bushings, STO-specific anti-roll bars, and updated MagneRide, the steering is recalibrated for more granular response alongside the inclusion of rear-wheel steering. For hauling the STO down from the end of the straight, the ultra-lightweight magnesium wheels hide new Brembo CCM-R ceramic brakes to improve braking power by 25 percent and stress resistance by an impressive 60 percent. The same 5.2-liter V-10 found in all other Huracáns gets a boost for the STO, now screaming out 640 horsepower and 417 lb-ft of torque.

2021 Lamborghini Huracán STO Highlights
