The Lamborghini Huracan successor will debut on August 16 during Monterey Car Week. Internally codenamed “634,” it features a twin-turbocharged V8 with 789 horsepower, which is more than the Huracan’s naturally aspirated V10 even in the extreme STO version. The main talking point, however, is the new 4.0-liter V8’s 729Nm of torque and revs to a staggering 10,000rpm, which is usually the preserve of race cars. We already knew that. But according to a recent teaser video released by the automaker, the V8 of the upcoming Lamborghini “supercar” will apparently rev past 10,000rpm, higher than initially announced. It’s possible that the production model will have a 10,000rpm redline.
Unlike the Huracan, the Huracan replacement doesn’t use a 5.2-liter naturally aspirated V10 engine. To refresh your memory, it uses a plug-in hybrid V8 setup that includes three electric motors, an internal combustion engine and an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission.
