Re: Lamborghini Huracan and variants
noone1:Show me a Huracan anywhere near 1422kg when it's actually ready to best tested.
10% difference in weight, 100% difference in tq, 40% difference in power. The weight isn't light enough to negate the power, now will the suspension set-up be aggressive enough.
Sport Auto did weight the 918 and the Huracan:
918 (Weissach Package): 1642 kg
Lamborghini Huracan LP610-4 (fully loaded): 1564 kg
The Huracan is still 78 kg lighter than the 918 with Weissach package. Add the 40 kg weight saving (Performante) and the difference is 118 kg.
Also, the Performante gets very likely rear axle steering (which does wonders, we all know that, look at the 991 Turbo S) and a highly improved chassis. Also add 30 hp more to the mix.

Fantastic car but even the guys at Sport Auto reviewing it were quite surprised that Lamborghini communicated the wrong tire pressures and that they had to kind of "find" them on their own. Sometimes it is a mystery what press departments are doing at VW Group. Look at that R8 Sport Auto reviewed, the car had much less power than claimed (usually test cars have much more power, look at the latest AMG GT S review in Sport Auto). Rumors at that time indicated that VW Group wants to keep a certain performance hierarchy within their brands but this sounds ridiculous.
