Hanoi tycoon owns the only genuine Huracan in Vietnam for 16.5 billion

The first single-wheel drive Huracan has a customer and is the 4th genuine Lamborghini to be "registered" in Vietnam.

A representative of Lamborghini Vietnam shared that the only genuine red Huracan supercar in Vietnam was "finalized" by a Hanoi tycoon on the morning of November 4 and the supercar was delivered to the customer in the afternoon of the same day.

After July 1, many official and private importers of supercars and luxury cars in Vietnam are worried that the increase in special consumption tax is too high and could affect sales. In fact, the market was bustling with cars arriving at ports "like going to the market" in the last days of June to avoid taxes and then somewhat slowed down.

The genuine red single-wheel drive Huracan, as well as many other supercars delivered to customers at this time, were all delivered before the tax change. Previously, the three genuine Lamborghinis delivered to Vietnamese customers, the white Aventador, the gray Huracan, and the white Huracan, all had their prices kept secret.

The first genuine red Huracan single-wheel drive version arrived in Vietnam in April, the supercar code LP580-2. Huracan is in the same segment as Ferrari 488 GTB, Audi R8.

The Huracan LP580-2 is equipped with a 5.2-liter V10 engine similar to the LP610-4, but with a capacity of 580 horsepower at 8,250 rpm and a maximum torque of 540 Nm at 6,500 rpm. A reduction of 30 horsepower and 20 Nm compared to the 2-wheel drive LP610-4. The supercar uses a 7-speed LDF gearbox. The rear-wheel drive system replaces the 4-wheel drive, so the car also loses 33 kg.

Despite the weight reduction, the Huracan LP580-2 accelerates slower than the LP610-4. Acceleration from 0-100 km/h is about 3.4 seconds, maximum speed is 320 km/h, fuel consumption is 11.9 liters/100 km, according to the manufacturer's announcement.

On the other hand, to optimize performance, the supercar has upgraded suspension and steering systems as well as recalibrated balance and traction control technology.
