2018 Lamborghini Huracan Performante Spyder Review

Many enthusiasts and readers are quick to point out the similarities between the Lamborghini Huracan and the Audi R8. They’re not entirely wrong, the two cars share a few key components, including the chassis, transmission and the 10-cylinder engine which is the same design and partially made in the same factory in Hungary.

When an engine makes up such an important part of the experience, some have dismissed the Huracan as just a more flamboyant R8. Maybe it's these quips that have spurred Lamborghini to show the world that its cars are far more capable, with its latest cars boasting impressive runs around the infamous Nurburgring.

The car we have today is one such super special, supercar. The Huracan Performante, in droptop Spyder form, is certifiably fast. But, crucially, it's not just fast. It boasts an incredible combination of speed and engagement.
