Ten years into its production run the Lamborghini Huracán is still craziness on wheels thanks to its ravishing V-10 engine, knife-edge handling, and the sort of visual presence that commands any cars-and-coffee it rumbles into. It faces a tough bunch of exoticar challengers, industry greats like the Ferrari F8 Tributo, 296GTB, and 812 Superfast; McLaren 765LT and 720S; and Aston Martin DBS, but it's equally compelling.
The Huracán is the only car in that otherworldly group powered by a naturally-aspirated V-10, which provides a big dose of aural uniqueness that's an integral part of the Lambo's appeal. Though it's ancient in supercar years—many of its early rivals have been replaced by newer models—the Huracán has been thoughtfully finessed over the years. Lamborghini continues to reinvigorate it with highly desirable variants, including an all-new Tecnica model for 2023. That's why we've said the Huracán resembles “an aging rocker still selling out stadiums.” It may be getting old but it's still as vital and exciting as ever.
The Lamborghini Huracán line sees the addition of the Tecnica model for 2023, which offers a road-friendly dose of the tantalizing tactility offered by the hardcore STO track-killer variant but at a more palatable price point. Make that relatively palatable price point. It has the same 631-horsepower output from its 5.2-liter V-10 as the mighty STO along with rear-wheel steering and a torque vectoring rear differential.
On the other end of the spectrum comes the rally-inspired Huracán Sterrato, which features a raised ride height, body-side cladding, and a top-mounted air intake for the V-10. The engine has been detuned slightly to 602 horsepower but all-wheel drive is standard and the Sterrato rides on all-terrain tires rather than performance summer-only rubber. The ruggedized Huracán also comes with a Rally driving mode that allows for greater levels of tail-out antics before the stability control intervenes. The automaker has also decided to axe the rear-wheel drive versions of the Evo coupe and Spyder, which are now both offered exclusively in an all-wheel drive configuration for 2023.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance: A dry-sumped 5.2-liter V-10 is nestled behind the Huracán's cabin, and it exudes a devilish sound whenever it revs towards its 8500-rpm redline. The engine now develops 631 horsepower in all but the rugged Sterrato model which features a 602-hp version of the V-10. Every Huracán V-10 is paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic that snaps off shifts under its own volition or at the driver’s command via a set of paddle shifters. The all-wheel-drive Evo coupe we tested for the 2020 model year ripped from zero to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds and cleared the quarter-mile in 10.4 seconds at 135 mph.
We also enjoyed a test drive in the convertible Evo Spyder, which proved high performance is always more enjoyable with a bit of theater. The Huracán Sterrato we tested proved to be highly entertaining as well, and it got to 60 mph in 2.8 seconds. Every Huracán model now comes standard with rear-wheel steering which improves agility even further. Plus, it has a predictive system (called LDVI) that adapts to driver inputs on the fly. While we were mightily impressed with the new Tecnica’s communicative chassis and good ride, its steering feedback isn’t particularly vivid at normal road speeds. (The STO’s is.) Still, the Tecnica proved to be a thrilling road-eater that remains impressive on the track when pushed hard.

The EPA hasn’t posted fuel economy estimates for either the 2023 Tecnica or STO yet, but it has rated the EVO models at 13 in the city and 18 on the highway for a combined rating of 15 mpg—the same as last year’s cars. That leads us to believe that the Tecnia and STO will have similar if not identical fuel economy estimates. Not that anyone in the market for a brand-new Lambo will care one way or the other. But it’s worth noting that all Huracán models are penalized for their low fuel efficiency ratings with a $2,100 gas guzzler tax. We haven't had a chance to subject any variant to our 75-mph highway fuel economy route, which is part of our extensive testing regimen, so we can't comment on the Lambo's real-world efficiency.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo: Inside, the Huracán boasts an intricate design that boasts a variety of technical pieces—some for show, most for go. The cabin also can be customized with distinct color choices and different material options. The supportive seats are bisected by a partially floating center console that incorporates cool toggle switches and an interesting push-button shifter. However, apart from some small door pockets, the Huracán has barely any interior cubby storage. There's also a front trunk that can hold passenger luggage, but only for those who pack light.

Infotainment and Connectivity: Unlike most cars, infotainment features are arguably the least interesting thing about a six-figure supercar. Still, Lamborghini outfits the Huracán with an 8.4-inch touchscreen that controls functions such as the audio system, climate settings, and other media content. Along with Apple CarPlay capability, the Lambo gets Amazon Alexa integration that provides voice-control technology that should theoretically reduce distracted driving.

The 2023 Lamborghini Huracán Tecnica is a masterful blend of raw performance and refined engineering, serving as a fitting tribute to the naturally aspirated V10 era. Positioned between the track-focused STO and the more road-oriented EVO, the Tecnica offers a balanced driving experience that caters to both enthusiasts and daily drivers
Powered by a 5.2-liter V10 engine producing 631 horsepower, the Tecnica accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in just 3.2 seconds, with a top speed of 201 mph. Its rear-wheel-drive configuration, combined with rear-wheel steering and a torque vectoring system, ensures agility and precision on both road and track. The aerodynamic enhancements, including a fixed rear wing and redesigned front and rear bumpers, contribute to a 35% increase in downforce and a 20% reduction in drag compared to the EVO.

Inside, the Tecnica boasts a driver-focused cabin with high-quality materials and the latest infotainment technology, including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa integration. The inclusion of a rear window enhances visibility, a practical touch not found in the STO variant.
As Lamborghini transitions towards electrification, the Huracán Tecnica stands as a celebration of pure, unadulterated driving pleasure. Its combination of exhilarating performance, striking design, and everyday usability makes it a standout in the supercar segment.
