A Lamborghini source has apparently revealed that the Italian supercar firm\u2019s replacement for the Gallardo \u2013 due next in 2014 \u2013 will be called the Huracan.<\/p>\n
The insider let slip to Auto Express that the new V10-powered supercar will be called Huracan, which is Spanish for hurricane. This is in contrast to earlier reports that suggested the Gallardo replacement would be called the Cabrera.<\/p>\n
Lamborghini Gallardo production ends as its replacement is trailed On Bing: see pictures of the Lamborghini Gallardo. The Italian manufacturer trademarked the Huracan name in April 2012 \u2013 previously associated with the Urus SUV concept shown at Beijing Motor Show last year. It also trademarked Deimos at about the same time.<\/p>\n
We expect the Lamborghini Huracan to have around 600hp, and feature distinct styling cues from the Aventador. Lamborghini is anticipated to reveal the Huracan at next year\u2019s Geneva Motor Show \u2013 and prices will start at around \u00a3165,000.<\/p>\n

But it turns out Huracan was also the name of a famous fighting bull in Mexico, known, in fact, as \u2018the bull of the century\u2019. Sound appropriate?<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
