Lamborghini Unveils Limited Edition Huracán STJ as Final V10 Model

Lamborghini has unveiled the Huracán STJ, a limited edition of 10 units that celebrates the final chapter of the super sports car equipped with the iconic V10 engine. The naturally aspirated V10 engine has been a symbol of Lamborghini's history, contributing to the success of the Huracán family since its introduction in 2014. However, the Huracán line will be replaced by an all-new super sports car with a new hybrid powertrain by the end of the year, marking the end of the V10 era for Lamborghini.

The Huracán STJ features a 630hp, 565Nm 5.2-liter naturally aspirated V10 engine paired with a 7-speed clutch gearbox and rear-wheel drive. It has a custom package designed by Lamborghini Squadra Corse experts, including carbon fiber elements, a rear spoiler with 3-degree angle adjustment, and a 10% increase in downforce. The STJ also comes with race-inspired four-way adjustable shock absorbers for exceptional handling.

The vehicle is available in two design options: Grigio Telesto (grey) with red and white accents, or a lively Blu Eliadi paint finish with red and white trim details. Each model features a numbered plaque from 1 to 10. The STJ is expected to be priced higher than the Rs 4.99 crore Huracán STO in India due to its production exclusivity, but it is uncertain when it will be introduced in the market.

Why this matters: The Lamborghini Huracán STJ marks the end of an era for the iconic V10 engine in Lamborghini's lineup. In the automotive industry's shift towards hybrid and electric powertrains, the STJ serves as a final tribute to the naturally aspirated V10 that has been a staple in Lamborghini's supercars for over two decades.

Lamborghini claims the STJ is faster than the STO, with a lap time over one second quicker at the Nardo track. The Huracán STJ is the last model of the V10 engine-equipped Huracán line, as the successor will feature a new hybrid powertrain and a smaller turbocharged engine. "The Huracán line has been a symbol of our brand's success, and the STJ is a fitting tribute to the naturally aspirated V10 that has powered some of our most iconic models," said Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini.
