Lamborghini has finally released a video of its newest car the Huracan in action. It’s actually the fourth in a series of videos, and as you may recall I was not a fan of the first three. This one does redeem the series somewhat, but that’s only because the Huracan is absolutely stunning.

If you haven’t seen the first three videos, and believe me you shouldn’t, they follow the three stupidest Brits in the world on their distinctly non-epic quest to break into the Lamborghini factory to get a look at the new Huracan. Oddly enough, the videos are called the “Hexagon Project”, even though there are four, not six of them. Though, I am just glad I didn’t have to watch two more. 

In this, the fourth video, the three odious bros find the car and take it for a spin. I can’t say that these two minutes of video make it all worthwhile … but it is close. The Huracan, especially in the metallic grey paint, is a looker. And then there is the noise, the big Lambo V10 sounds like the offspring of an F1 engine and a big block V8.

If nothing else, we know that the Huracan looks and sounds like a Lamborghini should. And given that Lambos have always been more about presence and passion than performance, that’s what really matters.

It is a bit odd that Lamborghini released a “teaser” after it already released the car’s official specs and images. It makes me think that things did not go exactly as planned here. But I can live with that because the Huracan is a beauty.

Still though, I have to say the most rewarding part of this video for me was seeing the heroes of the film get arrested. After having to watch them for 20 minutes, I think Lambo owed me that much.

Rivian R2 vs R1S: How will Rivian’s cheaper SUV compare?
The front three-quarter view of a 2022 Rivian against a rocky backdrop.

Rivian has finally unveiled the R2, its long-awaited attempt at a more affordable electric SUV. The new vehicle may not be available just yet, but fans of Rivian's design aesthetics and feature set are already looking forward to being able to order the new car. The R2 is targeted at being a more affordable take on the electric SUV and will sit alongside the flagship-tier R1S.

Let's get this out of the way right now: The R1S is most likely going to be a better vehicle than the R2. Rivian isn't replacing the R1S with the R2 — it's releasing the R2 as a more affordable alternative, and there will be some compromises when buying the R2 over the R1S.

We’re finally getting to the fun part of automakers’ methodical quest to replicate their lineups with electric cars.

Performance versions of ordinary cars have been a staple of the auto industry for decades. But while we’ve already seen some variants of EVs boasting more power and more impressive stats — think Tesla Model S Plaid or Lucid Air Sapphire — the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N is the first to truly apply that format to an EV.
