\u201cWe have three different values in Lamborghini, and one is \u2018unexpected.\u2019 The Temerario is the embodiment of it,\u201d Racchetti explained. \u201cAnd we really think that with Temerario we were able to define a new kind of sportiness that is less related to maximum performance, more related to fun to drive at any speed. In a certain way, the car\u2019s drifting mode is bringing a little bit of Sterrato to the Temerario, since it\u2019s providing you the opportunity to drift at low speed a little bit, and that was the idea behind it.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut definitely there is room to think about something in the future, since I have to say that Sterrato has been a big success. Everybody\u2019s in love with Sterrato, and it definitely changed a lot the perception of the brand and what we can do.\u201d<\/p>\n
I believe you could take that a step further and say the Sterrato changed the perception of what supercars at large can be. Together with the Porsche 911 Dakar<\/a>, it got people thinking about what\u2019s possible for their favorite performance models. Ford CEO Jim Farley probably has a picture of a Sterrato on his office wall with all his talk of building a Raptor supercar<\/a>.<\/p>\n Along with the Huracan Sterrato\u2019s visually obvious upgrades\u2014the fender flares, the fog lights, and the roof scoop\u2014the car also sits 44 millimeters higher while sporting unique drive modes for low-traction environments. All of that is good, though it seems like Lamborghini still has plenty left on the table to play with. Coming from the company that developed a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 that\u2019ll still rev to 10,000 rpm<\/a>, it\u2019s almost tough to imagine what\u2019s possible if it goes all-in on such a project.<\/p>\n Racchetti agrees. \u201cI really think that there is space to improve the concept even more in the future,\u201d he added. \u201cOf course, we\u2019re speaking about years from now. But we\u2019ve demonstrated our ability to rethink a concept in different way with the [Huracan], so it gives us the opportunity to think with an open mind about the future of the Temerario family. At the moment, of course, we are really focused on completing the delivery of the car, but then in the next months, that will be maybe one of the most interesting parts of my job: to think about what to do next.\u201d<\/p>\n Got a tip or question for the author?

The Huracan Sterrato is instantly recognizable compared to other V10 Lambos. Lamborghini <\/p>\n
