The Huracán STO sports an entirely new exterior design, revising its inimitable Lamborghini profile to optimize airflow.
Mitja Borkert, Head of Design, says: “Racing cars are always a strong inspiration for our design. The Huracán STO exquisitely reflects the technology transfer from our successful Huracán race cars, displayed in every aesthetic detail.”
The Huracán STO is the result of the collaboration between Lamborghini’s R&D, Squadra Corse and Centro Stile departments, with every line and every feature aesthetically outstanding while optimized to ensure the best driving performance.
Features of The new Lamborghini Huracán STO. Courtesy, Lamborghini Features of The new Lamborghini Huracán STO. Courtesy, Lamborghini The comprehensive aerodynamic solutions inspired by Squadra Corse racecars maximize aerodynamic performance, the most important are:
Cofango with air ducts
- Front splitter and louvers, the front bonnet, fenders, and the front bumper are comprised of one single component: the ‘cofango’ combines the ‘cofano’ (hood) and ‘parafango’ (fender) including the front bumper, inspired by the Lamborghini Miura and more recent Sesto Elemento.
- The cofango also incorporates a new front splitter, directing airflow to the newly designed underbody of the car and to the rear diffuser.
- The cofango is shaped to push the airflow on top of the front fenders, which incorporate louvers to maximize airflow exiting from the wheelhouse, reducing pressure inside and increasing the front downforce.
- The side profile of the cofango directs airflow around the front wheels, reducing drag.

- A new rear fender derived from the Super Trofeo EVO achieves both reduction of the front area of the car and consequently the drag, while increasing rear downforce and the car’s overall aerodynamic efficiency.
- The revised rear hood design features an integrated air scoop to improve air-cooling at the rear underhood.
- Dedicated air deflectors, integrated into the rear bonnet’s frame, manage the significant incoming airflow from the snorkel according to the temperature regulation needs of the engine and exhaust outlet.
Shark fin
- An integrated ‘shark fin’ on the rear bonnet improves the dynamic abilities of the STO, particularly when cornering: in such conditions, the incoming airflow has a yaw angle, and the different pressure levels generated by the two sides of the fin create a positive effect on yaw stability.
- The fin also helps straighten airflow onto the wing, increasing wing efficiency during cornering.
Adjustable rear wing
- A manual, easily adjusted aero set-up of the new rear wing optimizes aerodynamic balance and drag resistance according to track characteristics.
- A single slotted wing with a double airfoil allows the front part of the airfoil to rotate into three positions to enhance the rear downforce.
- By reducing the gap between the front and rear airfoil, compression is increased on the upper side, upping the suction intensity and extension on the bottom of the front airfoil. The aero balance of the car can thus fluctuate by 13%, adapting the STO to different driving styles and conditions.

- New front brake cooling ducts are dedicated to cooling the discs and calipers of the new CCM-R brakes, working in conjunction with the contango air-louvers that dispel hot air from the front wheelhouses.
- Aerodynamic result The Huracán STO achieves the highest level of downforce in its class with the best aero balance for a rear-wheel-drive car, with the delivery of a superior aerodynamic load a key factor in its enhanced cornering performance.
Lightweight approach
The Huracán STO uses carbon fiber in more than 75% of its exterior panels, benefiting from complex structures produced as a single component for increased integrity while also reducing weight via less fixing points.
The Huracán STO uses 25% less carbon fiber material while maintaining the same structural rigidity. At a dry weight of 1,339 kg, the Huracán STO’s weight is reduced by 43 kg compared to the already lightweight Huracán Performante.
The Huracán STO incorporates a windscreen 20% lighter than the Huracán Performante, and features magnesium rims for the highest strength-to-weight ratio.
The Huracán STO – Lamborghini Squadra Corse at its heart
- From the moment, the engine is fired up, every aspect of the Huracán STO, inside and out, stirs the soul of a racing driver.
- The Huracán STO has at its heart the V10 aspirated engine of the Huracán EVO and Super Trofeo, outputting 640 hp (570 kW) and 565 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. With an increased wheel track, stiffer suspension bushing, specific anti-roll bars, and Lamborghini’s MagneRide 2.0, the STO delivers all the emotion of a racecar while providing a comfortable road experience.
- The engine has been calibrated for a very sporty and responsive racing feel, with a direct pedal-to-throttle feeling and improved engine sound sharpness at high revs.
- The gearchange speed has been further increased to provide highly responsive and rapid gearshift.

- Three new driving modes exemplify the Huracán STO’s racing spirit, focused on high performance driving environments: STO, Trofeo and Pioggia.
- The default STO mode is for road driving and fun on curving roads.
- In Trofeo mode, all systems are optimized for dry asphalt and the fastest lap times on track.
- Pioggia (rain) mode optimizes traction control, torque vectoring, rear-wheel steering and the ABS on wet asphalt
- With Brembo CCM-R brakes drawing on materials expertise from F1 applications to deliver superior durability, the CCMR discs provide four times higher thermal conductivity than traditional CCB.
The Huracán STO interior – designed for purpose
- The interior of the Huracán STO reflects the lightweight persona of the exterior: extensive use of carbon fiber features throughout the cockpit, including sports seats in full carbon fiber; an Alcantara interior with Lamborghini’s Carbon skin; carpets removed and replaced by floor mats in carbon fiber; and the fully carbon fiber lightweight door panels with a door latch as an opener.
- A rear arch with four-point seatbelts and a newly designed front trunk for helmet storage, underline the Huracán STO’s racing DNA.
- New Human Machine Interface (HMI) graphics feature on the Huracán’s touch screen, which manages the car’s functions including drive mode indicator, the LDVI system, tire pressures and brake temperatures.
- A fully connected telemetry system allows pilots driving their Huracán STO on racetracks to monitor and record their performance and to analyze the data via the Lamborghini UNICA app.
