Lamborghini Huracan Performante Spyder

 





Here we have another Lamborghini Huracan, this time in the form of the road-going and track-focused Performante Spyder. The Performante was part of the Huracan lineup for the 2018 and 2019 model years and produces 631 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque from its naturally-aspirated 5.2-liter V10. Power is distributed to all four wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. It launches from zero to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds and can reach a top speed of 201 mph. Elements that distinguish the Performante from the base Huracan include additional carbon fiber trim, Italian green, white, and red stripes across the bottom end of the doors, a large rear wing, a lightweight dual exhaust setup, and a re-tuned suspension. Its interior is lined mostly in alcantara trim along with either bare carbon fiber or aluminum panels. The electronically-operated folding soft top adds 300 pounds to the Huracan Performante Spyder compared to the fixed-roof Huracan Performante. 

Lamborghini ceased production of the Huracan Performante after it updated the Huracan to become the Huracan Evo in 2019, with a more hardcore Huracan known as the STO taking the place of the Performante in the Lamborghini lineup in 2021. Values for the Huracan Performante Spyder on the secondary market currently hold steady at around $300,000. This particular Huracan Performante Spyder was on display at the most recent Cars & Coffee meet I attended about a month ago, and although it didn't stand out quite as much as the Huracan Super Trofeo Evo race car from the previous post, the Performante Spyder was undoubtedly the next best and coolest thing there. I've seen a decent amount of Huracan Performantes in person before, but they are amazing and incredible supercars nonetheless.
