The Lamborghini Huracán’s engine has 10 cylinders. Its naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V10 sits behind the two-seat cabin, giving the car a distinctive high-revving character and a direct link to Lamborghini’s smaller supercar tradition.
The Huracán inherited its basic V10 architecture from the later Lamborghini Gallardo, which used both 5.0-liter and 5.2-liter versions during its production run. In the Huracán, the engine combines direct fuel injection with multi-point fuel injection, a combination designed to balance performance, drivability, and emissions. Depending on the version, output ranged from roughly 580 to 640 metric horsepower.
A common mix-up is confusing cylinders with engine displacement. The Huracán has 10 cylinders, but its displacement is 5.2 liters; the number 5.2 does not describe the cylinder count. Lamborghini’s V12 models, such as the Aventador and Revuelto, use 12 cylinders, while the Urus uses a twin-turbocharged V8. The Huracán was produced from 2014 until 2024 and was succeeded by the V8-powered Lamborghini Temerario.
