2015 Lamborghini Huracan LP610-4 Review

Getting in and out is still a bit of an origami act for taller or bulkier people, but once you’re inside there’s quite a bit of space, including ample head room for those who are six-foot and above, provided there’s no race helmet involved.

While previous Lamborghini models have been style-driven rather than focused on the utility of the cabin, there’s a level of comfort and familiarity on offer in the Huracan â€" and unlike Lambos of previous eras the pedals are logically placed.

But as you’d expect, there are some silly supercar touches.

For example, the controls for the blinkers, wipers and high-beam lights are positioned on the steering wheel, and the car’s gear selector will likely fool any would-be thieves. There’s a large R toggle, and two smaller buttons, P for park and M for manual. And to get things moving once you start the car by flicking up the red missile-style switch, you need to use the right paddleshifter to choose first gear.

The Italian brand has made use of its parent company Audi’s parts bin, with the big 12.3-inch high resolution TFT screen in front of the driver offering all your technology and connectivity needs â€" you can keep an eye on your speed, revs, phone contacts, navigation instructions and more through the dashboard.

It’s controlled through a rotary dial system that’s out of Audi’s old parts bin as it doesn’t have the clever touchpad bit we’ve come to appreciate. Still, it’s reasonably simple to use (aided by some familiar looking menu screens), and the Bluetooth phone and audio streaming worked fairly seamlessly during our time in the car.
