Lamborghini Roars Off-Road With New $273,000 Huracán Sterrato: Review
Who cares why they made it—this car is a blast.
As a journalist, I’m paid to be skeptical. But sometimes, skepticism comes naturally. Like recently at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway, 180 miles east of Los Angeles. I was testing a vehicle that Lamborghini is billing as an off-road supercar, the $273,000 Huracán Sterrato.
A couple of things came to mind. First, Lamborghini has no record of competitive success in rugged realms, such as cross-country endurance races. In the 60 years since the Italian brand roared to life in Sant’Agata Bolognese, it hasn’t participated in the rough-and-tumble international rallies that tend to bag bragging rights for Audi, BMW and Porsche.
