Lamborghini sends the Huracán off with the super-limited-edition STJ

Lamborghini sends the Huracán off with the super-limited-edition STJ



Lamborghini bid farewell to the V12 a while back, and it’s now preparing to send off its iconic V10. The Huracán STJ will be a super-limited final edition car sporting Lambo’s naturally-aspirated V10 engine before it’s replaced by a next-gen supercar with hybrid power later this year.

The STJ, which stands for Super Trofeo Jota, gets the Huracán STO’s 631-horsepower V10 with around 417 pound-feet of torque. Lamborghini’s Squadra Corsa (racing team) helped develop the car’s aero package, which includes a more steeply angled rear wing that ups downforce by 10 percent.

More grip comes from racing-derived shocks with four-way adjustability that enables minute adjustments of rebound and compression. Specially-developed Bridgestone Potenza Race tires wrap 20-inch wheels with a super-sticky compound to keep the car planted on the road. Lamborghini said the upgrades help the STJ lap the Nardo Technical Center Handling Track more than a second faster than the Huracán STO.
