I met the Lamborghini Huracán STO ~

Lamborghini The Lounge Tokyo

"THE LOUNGE TOKYO", a Lamborghini lounge announced to have opened at the end of October 2020.

This time, I went to this lounge for the first time.

Someone is standing in the distance ... Is that so?

Ah! After all it was. here here.

This building is The Lounge Tokyo. Lamborghini stood in front of the building and waited.

By the way, since there is no facility or parking lot here, it seems to be the most convenient to use the parking lot in Tokyo Midtown when going by car.

This time, my family also stopped at Tokyo Midtown and walked. It's about a 5-minute walk from Midtown.

Even though it is a Lamborghini facility, the logo etc. is just written as "THE LOUNGE TOKYO", and the name of Lamborghini is not included in particular.

Well, is it designed so that people who understand it can understand it as Lamborghini just by looking at the letter "L"? (No ^^?)

By the way, it was said that this building is from B1 to 3F, but this time I went up to the 2nd floor to accept. Pounding.

Lamborghini Huracán STO real car

After measuring the temperature and disinfecting the fingers, head to the reception.

Yes, this time I went to see the actual car of "Urakan STO" here at the Lamborghini lounge ~ ^ ^

At the reception, a face guard was distributed along with a pass to keep it down from the neck, and everyone was required to wear a mask + face guard.

Also, at the end, you can also get souvenirs at this reception.

I would like to introduce the Lamborghini lounge itself separately, but this time I would like to write about the actual vehicle announcement of the Huracan STO.

The room for the Huracán STO to be unveiled is a smaller space than I expected with colorful chairs.

The chairs here are inspired by the chairs on the circuit, and the colors are also inspired by the colors of Lamborghini.

And it was the Huracán STO that had a presence hidden in front of it.

The lights in this room have a Lamborghini-like light design like this, so there was a sense of unity like Lambo-san.

And after the car was unveiled, the lights that became this bar sometimes sank into the car, and sometimes it looked like a geometric pattern, it was more Lamborghini-like, which is also good. Tana ~.

The whole feeling is like this.

In fact, you can access the outside right in front of the car. It is a small group system that seems to be for corona measures. ↓

It's time to start the presentation.

Originally, the country manager of Lamborghini Japan would come here to say hello, but it seems that he has not been able to come to Japan yet due to the influence of this coronavirus.

Therefore, this time it was a video message.

After that, the sales director of Lamborghini Japan gave a presentation explaining the Urakan STO.

I would like to write about the content of the presentations from the two of them, with the photos in between.

At the time of the presentation, the content was displayed on such a large screen and a slightly smaller screen.

Urakan STO Unveil

And, in the middle of the presentation, two women came in.

When I thought I was standing next to the Huracán STO, suddenly! !!

I'll do it.

AE?

When I was wondering if it would be something like "Come on! It's finally unveiled!", I felt like "What are you doing, take it quickly?" And Unveil (laughs).

Oh. The Urakan STO that came out easily, hmm, it's amazing!

First of all, the coloring is not a monotone feeling, but a racing car feeling such as orange on a light blue base.

I might have thought "Oh" because I had seen this color in the photo of the net news in advance (I), but if I saw this color for the first time here It might have been quite shocking ^^

By the way, the (?) Huracán STO was unveiled in this way.

This Huracán STO was just announced to the world on November 18, 2020, but it is amazing that the actual car will be released in Japan on November 22 (even earlier for the press). That is.

Even when I was invited to unveil the actual Huracán STO car this time, I even said, "Huh? Do you already have a real car?"

That should be that, it is said that Japan was the first country in the world to show off the actual vehicle of this Urakan STO this time.

This was because Lamborghini loved Japan and prioritized it as one of the most important markets in the world.

Well, it makes me happy to think that Japan is taken care of like that ^^

By the way, this Huracan STO is a model that puts the performance of motor sports into the road car.

It seems that it is a model that has been developed mainly by the following three people.

• Andrea Caldarelli (from the driver's point of view)
• Giorgio Sanna (from the perspective of racing experience)
• Maurizio Reggiani (from a racing engineer's point of view)

The concept is Based on the True Story

The concept of the Huracán STO is "Based on the True Story", that is, "based on the true story".

The true story = the actual story is, in other words, the technologies that Lamborghini's Squadra Corse (racing team) has acquired in motor sports so far.

Lamborghini won the GT3 category of the Daytona 24-hour endurance race for the third consecutive year in 2018, 2019 and 2020.

The "Based on the True Story" is the Huracan STO because such "technology of vehicle performance that actually produces results" is poured into it.

75% of the body is carbon fiber

Anyway, it is a vehicle that uses abundant carbon fiber, and the 75% of its body is made of carbon fiber. What is 75%! !!

By the way, about carbon fiber:

• Front bonnet & fender (Cofango)
• Engine bonnet
• Rear fender and bumper
• Rear wing

Such.

Besides, for weight reduction

• Windscreen
• Racing interior (interior)
• Magnesium wheels

Thorough weight reduction. As a result, it is said that it has achieved a weight reduction of 43 kg compared to the Huracán Performante.

• 

• 

Thoroughly thought out aerodynamics

Race-specific aerodynamics are also thoroughly thought out.

The orange suction port on the rear bonnet is an air intake port called an air scoop, which cools the engine.

The rear fender also has an air intake called the NACA duct.

The rear wing has a double profile and rear wing, and can be adjusted to three positions.

By taking various aerodynamic approaches applied from the racing experience, the downforce of the Huracán STO is 420 kg at 280 km / h.

Compared to the Huracán Performante, its aerodynamic efficiency is as high as 37%. It seems that the adjustable aero balance has also been increased by 13%.

The brake system (CCMR brake system) is also amazing, adopting a special brake cooling system, its thermal conductivity is quadrupled, and stress resistance is 60% higher than CCB.

I'm sorry, high. As usual, I don't really understand this area (laughs). But anyway, it seems to be amazing.

Oh yeah, by the way, because there is a brake temperature monitoring system, it was possible to visually check (numerical values) all the brake temperature, tire temperature, etc. from inside the car.

Anyway, it is said that it is designed to efficiently cool each of the braking and power train, so there are many places where air is already taken in.

Tires from Pirelli to Bridgestone

Oh yeah, the tires used to be Pirelli, but this time the Huracán STO has changed to Bridgestone.

I think it was written as "Potenza Sport" at a glance.

There seem to be two types of tires (probably):

• Front: 245 / 35ZR19 & 245 / 30ZR20
• Rear: 305 / 35ZR19 & 305 / 30ZR20

Does the Huracán STO have a trunk?

Now, I would like to confirm one of the things that I was very interested in here.

That is about this part.

This carbon fiber front bonnet is the part that opens together. This is said to be inspired by Lamborghini Miura.

Wow, I'm afraid I'll break it if I open it ...

How to open the Urakan STO front hood

By the way, as for how to open it, there is such a locked part on the side, so insert the attached parts here to unlock (unlock both left and right because it is on the left and right), and then open it quickly That's right ^^

Incidentally, the rear hood also has similar locks on the left and right, so it seems that it will be removed after unlocking in the same way.

… But the rear hood doesn't open at once, it's a “remove” type, so it's not something you can normally open around that area.

No, can't I open it even with the type of Paka ^^

By the way, what I was interested in was the contents of the front bonnet that opens up all at once ... or rather, the inside part.

It was like this.

That's right!

so!

I was wondering "Is there a trunk in the Huracán STO?", But there was! !!

Oh, did you have one?

I wonder if it's okay (laughs). No, there is. For the time being.

This is this. The Huracán STO has a trunk! !!

I understand? In the middle, the part where the base is visible as a cross. This is the "trunk".

There is a hole in the left and right spaces at the air intake, so nothing can be placed (do not place).

It seems that this trunk and helmet will fit in one. If you put on a helmet, you can go to the circuit, and it's enough ... (laughs)? whatever.

Urakan STO interior

Finally, a little interior photo.

By the way, this car is a European specification car, so it is a 4-point seat belt.

• 

• 

3 driving modes

There are three operation modes:

• STO (Street Mode)
• Trofeo (race mode)
• Pioggia (rain mode)

Mode change can be operated with one button at the bottom of the steering wheel.

There was also a roll cage and a fire extinguisher in the rear part.

• 

• 

Oh, do you care about one more thing? Oh yeah, the usual one.

I'm sure only I care about it as usual, but about Smiley-chan at the door.

I also checked the Huracán STO right away!

I was there. I think it's the same as the previous Urakan. Well, after all it feels like a third piece ^ ^

Urakan STO Spec

Well, I didn't write any specs at all. The specifications are as follows.

• Maximum horsepower: 640cv
• Maximum torque: 565Nm
• Dry weight: 1,339 kg
• Power-to-weight ratio: 2.09kg / cv (same as Urakan ST EVO)
• 0-100 km: 3.0 seconds
• 0-200 km: 9.0 seconds
• Maximum speed: 310km
• Full stop from 100km / h: 30m
• Full stop from 200km / h: 110m

By the way, the time at Daytona International Speedway is:

• Urakan GT3 EVO (slick tire) → 1: 46.40
• Urakan STO (road tire) → 1: 48.86
• Urakan Performante (road tire) → 1: 51.80

It seems that it follows the GT3 EVO with slick tires. With road tires. great.

The option price changes variously depending on the Huracan STO, body color selection, logo selection, etc., so I asked a little about the price, but hmm, after all it is 37.5 million yen of the vehicle body price. -It doesn't seem to fit in at all ^^

Anyway, I was very happy to meet the Huracán STO.

Thank you to Lamborghini Japan and Cornes Aoyama ^^
