Lamborghini is in the process of updating its design lineup, having already unveiled its plug-in hybrid car, the Revuelto. The company has now officially demonstrated that the replacement for the Huracán will also be what it calls an “electrified high-performance vehicle. “
This doesn’t come as a surprise, but it’s fantastic to have confirmation that its next junior supercar won’t be unveiled until 2024. In addition, Lamborghini will introduce the highly anticipated Urus plug-in hybrid this year.
While it’s unclear whether those debuts will be made in combination or at other times, Lamborghini’s two new models may simply be linked. Previous reports recommend that the successor to the Huracán will ditch the V10 in favor of a 4. 0-liter twin-turbo V8. , as well as that of the Urus.

The next Huracan is expected to borrow the electric hardware from its big brother, the Revuelto. This could mean that the Huracan successor will get axial-flux motors from British supplier Yasa, though it’s unclear if it will make use of two or three motors.
Spy footage of the vehicle has revealed that the new styling will be on the scale of the Huracán and will incorporate some design cues from the Revuelto. So far, the test cars feature a rear bumper design that leaves the rear wheels exposed, giving it a functional look and helping to highlight the intricate rear diffuser.
Although we aren’t anticipating four-digit power figures like the Revuelto, the Huracan replacement may debut new tech that adjusts its toe and camber angles on the fly to actively optimize handling characteristics, which will likely make it feel quite nimble.
Lamborghini says the new successor to the Huracán, combined with the Revuelto and Urus PHEV, is part of its “Direzione Cor Tauri” emissions plan. It hopes to reduce CO2 emissions from its diversity by half by 2025 and by an additional 80% by 2030.
Lamborghini CEO Stefan Winkelmann recently told Bloomberg that the logo is intentionally slow in its electrification strategy (the Revuelto came out years after Ferrari’s first PHEV) because “it will hit the market when we’re the best and when the generation is mature. “
