Airfix 1/43 Lambourghini Huracán EVO (A55007) In-box Review

[Ratch]

The Lamborghini Huracán (Spanish for "hurricane") is a sports car replacing the previous V10 offering, the Gallardo. The Huracán was revealed online in December 2013, making its worldwide debut at the 2014 Geneva Auto Show, and was released in the market in the second quarter of 2014.

The Huracán's name is inspired by a Spanish fighting bull. Historic Spanish fighting bulls have traditionally provided the names of most Lamborghini car models. Huracán was a bull known for its courage that fought in 1879.
