Lamborghini has launched the fourth variant of its Huracán range – the Huracán RWD Spyder 580-2 in India at Rs 3.45 Crore, ex-showroom. The launch happened amidst all the glitz and glamour at the Lakme Fashion Week 2017. Sharad Agarwal, head of Lamborghini India, and desiner Kunal Rawal were present at the event.
Globally unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show last year, the Huracan RWD Spyder is a soft-top convertible version of the built-for-fun RWD coupe. While the regular Huracan 610-4 features a Haldex four wheel drive system (gen. V), the 580-2 is a pure rear wheel drive car. Although the electronically controlled Haldex 4WD system in the 610-4 is rear biased with 30:70 distribution, and can transfer 100% to the rear wheels in certain situations, the 580-2 is for those who want pure RWD experience.
The soft-top roof can be opened and closed within 17 seconds, and at speeds of up to 50 km/h. Powering the RWD Spyder is a 5.2 litre naturally aspirated V10 engine, producing 580 hp and 540 Nm of torque, paired to a 7 Speed dual clutch automatic transmission. 0 – 100 km/h happens in 3.6 seconds, 0.2 seconds slower than the 4WD version. The top speed is rated at 319 km/h, 5 km/h slower than the 610-4. Just like its coupe sibling, the Huracan RWD Spyder features a consensual “Power Oversteer” too.
The Huracan RWD Spyder is now available for bookings, and will command a minimum waiting period of four months. Lamborghini currently has 3 dealers in India, one each in Bengaluru, Mumbai and Delhi.
