The Huracan Performante faces the McLaren 720S on a Drag Race
Lamborghini Huracan Performante vs McLaren 720S
Lamborghini made the Huracan Performante to be fast (around the tracks) and this is a fact. Performante means performance in Italian and this is what we can get from this Raging Bull.
From a 5.2-liter naturally aspirated V10 engine, the Huracan Performante generates 640hp and 442 lb-ft of torque. It is 40 kg lighter than the regular Huracan and it goes from 0 to 62mph in just 2.9 seconds.
As said, the Lamborghini Huracan Performante was made to be fast around the tracks, so it boats Active Aerodynamics to generate maximum downforce, which does not help in a drag race.
The McLaren 720S, on the other hand, is a straight line beast. The V8 twin-turbo-powered car puts 710bhp on its rear wheels to hit 62mph in 2.9 seconds and 124 mph in 7.8 seconds.
Yeah, the numbers show a close result but if you have watched the video you already know it was not.
