Aside from Lamborghini's wacky styling, one thing that really separated the raging bull from other automakers was its absolutely bonkers behavior. Miuras, Countachs, Diablos and Murcielagos are all known for their unpredictable nature and flighty tendencies.
And when you push them to the limit, there's a good chance they will bite you.
For the nutters that would work the car at the absolute limit, they will tell you how you're constantly walking a fine line of having the time of your life and fearing that you could end your life at any second. A Lamborghini can bite you at any moment.
Well, at least that's the way they used to be.
According to Autocar's Steve Sutcliffe, the all-new Huracan has a tendency to understeer when pushed. Of course in a mid-engine supercar that's pretty hard to believe. But, according to Sutcliffe, Lamborghini intentionally engineered the vehicle to be "secure" and "as predictable near the limit as it is fast in a straight line." Essentially, the car has been idiot-proofed so that a buyer cannot spin the vehicle and earn themselves a Darwin award by crashing backwards in a ball of fire into heaven's pearly gates.
That said, we're a wee bit curious what YOU think: is this a WELCOME change or does this really alter the outrageous soul of previous Lamborghinis that made them charming?
