Lamborghini Huracan LP 610

The Huracán's name (huracán being the Spanish word for hurricane) is inspired by a Spanish fighting bull, similar to various other Lamborghini car models. Huracán was a bull known for its courage that fought in 1879.  Also Huracan is the Mayan god of wind, storm and fire.
It has a 7-speed dual clutch transmission with 3 modes (STRADA, SPORT and CORSA), 20 inch wheels, carbon-ceramic brake system, optional Lamborghini Dynamic Steering variable steering system and MagneRide electromagnetic damper control.
.The Huracán maintains the 5.2 L naturally aspirated V10 engine from the Gallardo, tuned for 610 PS (449 kW; 602 hp). To ensure its balance and performance, the car is mid-engined. The V10 has both direct fuel injection and multi-point fuel injection. It combines the benefits of both of these systems; it is the first time this combination is used in a V10. To increase its efficiency the Huracán's engine also includes a start-stop system.

Performance:

The Huracán's top speed is over 325 km/h (202 mph). It can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.2 seconds and from 0 to 200 km/h (124 mph) in 9.9 seconds. With a dry weight of 1,422 kg (3,135 lb), the Huracán has a power-to-weight ratio of 2.36 kg per horsepower. The Huracán has electronically controlled all-wheel drive, which aims to increase the traction on various surfaces and the overall performance of the car.
The car has a 7-speed dual clutch transmission, Lamborghini's new 'Doppia Frizione' (also known as Dual Clutch) gearbox. The transmission performs differently depending on the mode the driver has selected. 
The Huracán also has a magnetically controlled suspension system. It utilises magnetorheological fluid to very quickly change how the suspension acts, ensuring performance as well as usability.
Various aspects of the Huracan are technologically advanced. The car has full LED lighting, which ensures higher contrast in night conditions. Also, the Huracan has optional "Lamborghini Dynamic Steering" to add to the standard power steering. The Dynamic Steering changes the steering performance from normal, comfortable steering to a racing feeling. The main control for changing the car's performance according to driving conditions is the mode selector. The driver can select street, sport, or race mode to alter how systems like the engine or transmission respond while driving. Depending on what mode is selected, even engine sound is different(that’s cool).
