The new Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato: the super sports car that goes beyond

Reading Time: 6 minutes

Automobili Lamborghini presents the new Huracán Sterrato[1] at Art Basel, Miami Beach: the first super sports car designed for maximum driving pleasure even away from the asphalt on loose or dirt surfaces, reinterpreting the very concept of sportiness and emphasizing the brand principles of brave, authentic and unexpected. 

“True to our values as a visionary, bold and unconventional brand, with the Sterrato we are breaking new ground in driving sensations,” commented Stephan Winkelmann, Lamborghini Chairman and CEO. “Presenting the car at Art Basel in Miami reflects how, just like an avant-garde work of art, the Sterrato represents a radical and original interpretation of the super sports car concept but, in terms of performance, the Sterrato belongs in the world’s most dynamic and exciting driving environments.”

The Huracán Sterrato offers optimized driving dynamics for perfect control in all environments, from the highway to dirt roads. Compared with the Huracán EVO, the Sterrato comes with an updated version of the LDVI (Lamborghini Integrated Vehicle Dynamics) system, with specific STRADA and SPORT calibrations, and bringing the RALLY mode for low-grip conditions to the Huracán line for the first time.

“With the high-speed all-terrain concept of the Sterrato, we have uniquely combined the driving experience of a true super sports car and the fun of driving a rally car,” explained Rouven Mohr, Lamborghini Chief Technical Officer. “Lamborghini cars always deliver emotion: the Sterrato delivers a new degree of driving thrills.”

The exterior expresses the adventurous spirit of the Sterrato right from the first glance. The ground clearance has been increased by 44 mm compared with the Huracán EVO to ensure greater suspension travel, as has the front (+30 mm) and rear (+34 mm) track widths. Furthermore, in addition to protecting the car body, the aluminum front underbody protection, the reinforced sills, the rear diffuser and the sturdy wheel arches all emphasize its muscularity. The classic air intake located on the rear hood not only enhances the sporting spirit of the model, but also helps supply the engine with clean air when driving on dusty tracks.

“The Sterrato is testimony to how the Lamborghini design DNA works perfectly even with unexpected proportions,” stated Mitja Borkert, Lamborghini Head of Design. “The Sterrato’s design translates its super sports car heritage into a new lifeform, reflecting its specific intent to deliver a truly unique and fun driving experience”.

The Huracán Sterrato comes with a 5.2-liter V10 engine with maximum power output of 610 CV and 560 Nm of torque (at 6500 rpm), combined with 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and electronically controlled all-wheel drive with rear mechanical self-locking differential. Designed to offer optimum performance on unpaved and sandy surfaces, it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (ca. 60 mph) in 3.4 seconds and reaches a top speed of 260 km/h (ca. 160 mph).

The car is fitted with brakes with aluminum fixed monoblock calipers with six pistons (front) and four pistons (rear) and ventilated and cross-drilled carbon-ceramic discs with 380 mm diameter and 38 mm thickness at the front and 356 mm diameter and 32 mm thickness at the rear. It comes with 19” rims fitted exclusively with custom-engineered Bridgestone Dueler AT002 tyres, providing maximum versatility and adaptability for any condition and surface while contributing to the feeling, emotion and fun to drive of the car: tires measure 235/40 R19 at the front and 285/40 R19 at the rear, incorporating run-flat technology which, in case of puncture, guarantees drive minimum 80km at 80kph with 0 pressure. These bespoke Bridgestone tyres have been designed to match 100% car DNA, including an innovative pattern design and a cutting edge compound which provide a perfect grip both on gravel and tarmac while keeping an excellent handling and high speed performance.

The interiors, characterized by the exclusive Alcantara Verde Sterrato upholstery, reflect the “feel like a pilot” philosophy traditionally adopted for the Huracán line, which places the driver at the center of the passenger compartment for the ultimate driving experience and absolute control of all the car’s features. The Human Machine Interface (HMI) has new graphics and special driving features; for the first time, the instruments feature a digital inclinometer with pitch and roll indicator, a compass, geographic coordinate indicator, and steering angle indicator.

Among the on-board services, Lamborghini Connect includes integration with Amazon Alexa to adjust car features such as air conditioning and lighting, as well as control the navigation, phone calls and entertainment with a simple voice command. The car can also be controlled remotely via the Lamborghini UNICA app with, for example, remote speed monitoring and the sending of a destination directly to the navigation system.

The Huracán Sterrato comes with a connected telemetry system which allows the driver to monitor performance and analyze the data via the UNICA app; Apple Watch users can also synchronize their heart rate information with the on-board telemetry system[2] to measure their driving performance. The Lamborghini Drive Recorder is also available to record experiences at the wheel. It allows the driver to video the most exciting driving moments, enhancing the Board Diaries feature: the digital memory book integrated into the Lamborghini UNICA app.

“Miami represents a melting pot of incredible culture, creativity and cutting-edge design, so we felt it was the ideal location to launch our new, unexpected super sports car, the Huracán Sterrato,” remarks Mr. Winkelmann. “The feeling I get when driving this car is in some ways similar to when I strongly connect with a remarkable piece of artwork – it’s uniquely personal, deeply emotional and undoubtedly exciting.”

The Lamborghini Beach Lounge features two Huracán Sterrato on display, one with the exterior color Verde Gea and the other in Bianco Phanes. Around the cars, winding pathways bordered by tire track imprinted sand lead guests to three digital installations that highlight the Huracán Sterrato in action on different surfaces – dirt, gravel and sand. Each installation is brought to life with a complimentary sport that sets the environment: off-road biking in the countryside, parasailing in the mountains and windsurfing along the coastline.

Connected with the all-terrain experience is the all-new premium 3T Exploro Racemax x Huracán Sterrato bike. Crafted in-house in Italy using 3T’s own carbon fiber technology, it is designed with the same Verde Gea livery as the Huracán Sterrato vehicle and boasts the logo script on the saddle. Available via 3T distributors, the bike will be available globally in early 2023.

Within the Lamborghini Beach Lounge, artwork from celebrated artist Fabian Oefner is on view for guests featuring his highly acclaimed “Disintegrating” works that portray super sports cars that seem to blow apart. In the Disintegrating X – Lamborghini Miura SV (2019), what looks like a computer-generated image is actually a real-life photograph. It was made by photographing every single piece of a 1972 Miura SV and then assembling the individual pieces to a composition that looks like the car disintegrating at full speed. In Oefner’s latest collaboration with Automobili Lamborghini, Disintegrating Essenza (2022), he photographed all 2,358 parts of the race car at the factory in Italy. He then assembled the individual parts to create a hyper-realistic illusion of the car launching into the atmosphere like a rocket into the night sky. These prints are complimented by two Heisenberg Lamborghini sculptures on display.

Limited to just 28 timepieces, long-time partner Roger Dubuis also launched the latest creation to emerge from their collaboration with Automobili Lamborghini – the new Excalibur Spider Huracán Monobalancier (MB). A prime example of what happens when incredible watchmakers meet visionary engineers, the heart-pumping timepiece is infused with the horological excellence of the Maison and the spirit of the Huracán Sterrato super sports car. Maximum traction. Peak acceleration. Thrilling experiences.

The Lamborghini Beach Lounge in Miami is open by invite-only December 1-3, 2022.
