The Sterrato’s naturally-aspirated 5204cc dry-sump V10 engine is based on the unit as found in both the STO and Tecnica, but Lamborghini has made substantial changes to how the engine breathes. Instead of drawing air in from the high-mounted side intakes, the entirely bespoke intake system now exclusively breathes in through the roof-mounted snorkel, helping keep dust and dirt from clogging its air filters.
Due to the extra weight, lower power figure and all-terrain tyres, performance times aren’t quite as blistering as a comparable Huràcan EVO, reaching 62mph in 3.4sec , 124mph in 9.8sec . The 161mph top speed is down 41mph, limited by the tyres and negative aero effects of skid plates replacing splitters and diffusers.
Of course, what’s as important as its new-found capability are the styling elements that signify it, of which Lamborghini has not held back on. The basic bodywork is derived from a standard EVO model, but the front and rear bumpers, bonnet, side skirts and rear engine cover with its integrated intake snorkel are all new. These elements are paired to those uncoloured wheel arch extensions, which match the matt black roof, front LED driving lights and tiny roof rails.
All of which leads us to the 1499 units it’ll build from February 2023. To some, turning the Huràcan into a niche model like the Sterrato might seem to undermine the spectacular STO and Tecnica, both of which completely transformed our perception of the Huràcan and how brilliant it has become in its later life.

looks like they've let JeremyClarkson loose in the design room...
So, they've just made a car that isn't good at anything?
Given how crappy roads have become these days, these higher clearance cars make a lot of sense. Well, maybe not “a lot”…
Utterly pointless, in my humble opinion.
Is it April 1st? JokeCar
I prefer the Porsche Dakar.
Are buyers supposed to think 'I need a Lamborghini Outback for speed bumps'?
There's a word or term I'm clutching for but not finding - not Fin de siecle but related - a last wilfully, wantonly decadent fling before enforced austerity & a new order. The kind of final party of the French aristocracy, all of them knowing the guillotine beckons.
Going back to their roots?
why just coz porsche made one ?!?!?!?
