Lamborghini Huracan EVO Spyder performance specs

Want to learn about the Lamborghini Huracan EVO Spyder performance specs? We can clue you in. When it comes to engine performance, the Huracan EVO and the Huracan EVO Spyder are essentially the same as they enjoy the same engine. It’s a V10 powerhouse that can output up to 640 horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque, but we can dig a little deeper than that.

How much heavier is the Huracan EVO Spyder?

If you’ve never really paid attention to the weight of convertible vehicles compared to their hardtop versions (and we don’t blame you) then it may surprise you to learn that most convertibles are actually heavier than their hardtop counterparts. This comes down to structural efficiency. In order to make a vehicle rigid, you want the top closed.

You can see this in practice first hand with a simple cardboard box. Leave the top open and notice that the box crumples much more easily than with the top closed. A convertible has to make up for that and it does so by adding rigidity elsewhere. You can imagine putting cardboard up the sides to make it stronger with the top open.

With this in mind, you can see how more material will be needed to make this open top box as strong as the closed top box. This is why convertibles tend to be heavier. In the case of the Huracan EVO Spyder, you have a dry weight of 3,400 pounds which is 266 pounds heavier than the Huracan EVO Coupe at 3,134 pounds. Both models still enjoy a 43%/57% front to rear weight distribution.
