Our Recommendation For the Best Trim:

The base trim of the Lamborghini Huracan Spyder is just enough for optimized performance on the road or the track. The engine churns out 571 hp and comes at a cost of $223,654. However, in case you want a greater power specification, go for the AWD or the Performante variant. The former fabricates 601 hp and the latter produces 630 hp.

The base RWD variant produces 571 hp, the AWD variant fabricates 601 hp, and the Performante variant churns out 630 hp.

The naturally-aspirated V10 engine hits all the right notes when it comes to the exhaust sound. The exhaust note is bound to give you a shot of adrenaline rushing through your veins. The Huracan revs linearly and gracefully make its way to the redline. The power delivery is just impeccable.

All the fireworks produced in that V10 is rightly delivered to the Rear Wheels (or All Wheels if you are comfortable spending $42,671 extra) through the means of a 7-speed automatic gearbox. The transition duties are carried out smoothly and without any lag.
