The Lamborghini Huracan replaces the most produced model in the company's history, the Gallardo, and does so in dramatic fashion. Its design actually more closely resembles the Aventator, which debuted in 2011, than it does the Gallardo, which first hit the roads in 2003, according to the Washington Post.
Like its predecessors, the Huracan (Spanish for hurricane, though like all Lamborghini's it's named after a Spanish fighting bull), is fast, capable of reaching 62 mph in 3.2 seconds (possibly reaching 60 in around 3), and achieving speeds of over 200 mph, according to the Post. Those impressive numbers are courtesy of a 600-horsepower V-10 and seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
As drivers either zip in and out of traffic or coast easily for others to admire their vehicle, they'll be able choose from three different drive modes: Strada, Sport, and Corsa.
A price has yet to be set on the supercar, which won't be available for sale until 2015. It's first public appearance will be at Geneva Conference in Switzerland in December 2014, according to Road and Track.
Will the Aventator match the success of the Gallardo? That model sold over 14,000 times and "has unquestionably been integral to Lamborghini's growth and transition into the 21st century," according to the LA Times. Lamborghini's marketing executives advise buyers to at least give it a shot, or rather, at least "listen to their insticts," according to the website's catch line. Below that, the ad asks consumers to "Discover the roar of the new creature from Lamborghini. That will be just the beginning."
