Worried modern, Audi-owned Lamborghini was going a bit soft? Concerned the madness of Miuras and Diablos had disappeared? Fear not, for this is the aggressive new Huracan racer. It looks for all the world like it wants to tear your head off.Called the Huracan Super Trofeo Evo, the clue"s in its name: this is an evolution of the Super Trofeo racer of previous seasons. The big news is a new carbon aero kit, developed with Dallara, who worked on the KTM X-Bow.Very little is shared with the Super Trofeo it replaces, with an all-new look at the rear featuring much sculpturing. The wing and the roof fin are the headline acts, though. The latter incorporates an air scoop, so while the 5.2-litre V10 engine beneath the rear deck produces the same 611bhp as before, it ought to function better with more air being lobbed its way. The fin itself aids rear stability. So maybe this Lambo won"t tear your head off, after all.
