Lamborghini Huracan Performante has just been launched in India at Rs 3.97 crore (All-India ex-showroom). Lamborghini India introduced Performante in India promptly after its first unveil at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show.
The Performante is not just another Huracan, but the new ‘King of the Ring’ as it has set the record of being the fastest production car on the notorious Nordschleife Nurburgring with a lap record of 6:52.01min. The Performante is also the most expensive Huracan on sale in India. So the lucky few owners who buy this crazy Italian beast will get unparalleled Lamborghini luxury in a performance machine with an accomplishment of conquering one of the toughest race tracks in the world, the Green Hell.
The Baby Lambo boasts of a new active aerodynamics package with aero vectoring, a new chassis set-up and an all-wheel-drive system to enhance the performance of the revised powertrain performance in the most mind-boggling manner. This revised powertrain, the 5.2-litre V10, now produces a whopping 631bhp and 600Nm torque, catapulting the Performante from zero to 100kmph in mere 2.9seconds. The bespoke Pirelli tyres, extensive carbon fibre and forged composite components, Aerodinamica Lamborghini Attiva (ALA), Lamborghini's Piattaforma Inerziale (LPI) and a few other avant-garde Italian technology all work in harmony to make the Huracan Performante the fastest production car to lap the Green Hell ever.
And unlike other German manufacturers, who strip down the car to make it go faster, the Performante is as luxurious on the inside as it is fast. The Alcantara-adorned cabin with forged composite air vents, paddles, door handles and the centre console add to the understated elegance of the car. The new cockpit layout supports Apple CarPlay connectivity along with Lamborghini telemetry system, which allows the driver to record, replay and study his own performance. The new digital cockpit displays are configurable depending on driving mode – Strada, Sport or Corsa, with a special display for the ALA graphs data on downforce and drag, which shows when and how the ALA is working, including aero-vectoring.
