Lamborghini Huracan Sterrato

摘要

Sterrato. It's one of those wonderful, not totally translatable Italian words. Similar to countach, a Piedmontese expression that's a cross between "holy cow" and something a bit more blue. Sterrato, in the broadest sense, means "dirt road." But a sterrato is more like an unplowed field. It's untamed, unconquered. Ferruccio Lamborghini made his first fortune building tractors. Most of the roads around Sant'Agata are sterrati. What this has to do with a 630-horsepower Mars attack rover I will leave up to you. If nothing else, it's a fun word to say. So what is this thing? A Huracan Evo that's been raised nearly 2 inches and had its track widened by over an inch. The Sterrato's wheel arches are both wider and 3-D -printed to accommodate the wider balloon tires, 235/45R20 front and 305/40R20 rear. The front axle has been moved forward 3 inches to accommodate the larger tires, which necessitated new control arms and longer front fenders. Aluminum armor plating has been added to the bottom of the Sterrato's snout, on its side sills, and under the rear fascia. That rear hunk of metal also acts as a diffuser, because Lamborghini. The approach angle is increased by just 1 degree; the departure angle increases by 6.5 degrees.
