According to a new report the turbos won't kick in until 7,000 rpm

, uses a supercapacitor instead of a battery to store energy. According to the report, this unique new V8 engine requires enough development capital that Lamborghini is saving cash by updating the Huracan’s platform instead of replacing it altogether.

That’s not too concerning though since the Huracan isn’t really lacking with regard to its chassis. Expect the replacement model to be slightly longer to accommodate the battery packaging. Whether or not it’ll offer any sort of plug-in charging we don’t know just yet. Regardless, it sounds like Lamborghini is working hard to keep weight down and agility up.

The Huracan has proven that Lamborghini knows how to make a competition-spec supercar and we’d hate to see heavy batteries stop that progress. The V10 might be on the way out but it’s served the car, its owners, and even the tuning community quite well. One thing feels certain; turbochargers that are efficient from 7,000-10,000 rpm should be pretty interesting.
