Lamborghini Huracán LP610-4 Spyder

Lamborghinis have always appealed to iconoclasts who see the marque as a bold challenger to convention. While much of the exotic car world has embraced turbochargers, Lamborghini honors tradition with its naturally aspirated V-10 engine that delivers heady performance, accompanied by a soundtrack that stirs the soul. The drop-top Lamborghini Huracán LP610-4 Spyder achieves swift velocity with maximum aural accompaniment, achieving a level of mechanical musicality rarely heard in a passenger vehicle. While purists will decry the open Lambo’s slight added weight and sacrificed stiffness, enthusiasts seeking a stirring drive will be treated to a car that delivers spectacle and sonority wrapped in an equally arresting body. Its quick transformation from closed coupe to roadster requires a mere 17 seconds to perform. Thankfully for impatient drivers, that can be achieved at speeds up to 31 mph. Those hoping to enjoy V-10 sounds without lowering the roof can drop the rear window, which keeps out the weather but welcomes the engine noise. On the open road, Lamborghini’s Spyder sparks a rush of adrenaline—a sensation felt similarly by matadors fighting their own aggressive bulls. Fortunately, drivers will find this Italian breed easier to tame.
