The 2021 Lamborghini Huracan is a spectacular car with heart stopping acceleration, supreme comfort and a titan V10 engine. But how does it compare to the 2021 Porsche 911, a car which is widely considered iconic due to its incredible performance, endless customization options and unabashed opulence?
Design & Style
The newest 911 is a 2 seater which a classical shape. The haunches are more prominent than previous editions and the cabin now features digital screens. However, drivers will still have access to paddle shifters and rear axle style steering. The frame is made with aluminum and the trunk offers about 4.7 cubic feet worth of space. Its curves are polished and smooth with spherical fenders and LEDs. The spoiler is adjustable and can be raised when desired.
The latest Lamborghini Huracan has three new colors, which are Blu Eleos, Rosso Anteros and Blue Astraeus. It sits on twenty inch wheels and has carbon skin with sporty seats that provide outstanding back support. The exterior is long and sharp while the cabin features toggle switches and a push button style shifter.
Technology & Safety
The Lamborghini Huracan comes with a maintenance package that is scheduled and has carbon ceramic brakes, but other than this, it doesn’t offer much to protect drivers, which is concerning given its incredible acceleration and speed. It provides zero driver assistance tech, but luxuries within its cabin include smartphone compatibility, leather covered seats and adaptive dampers.
The Porsche 911 is equipped with an extensive suite of safety functions. These include emergency automated brakes, lane and cruise control, a camera with surround view, night vision, the ability to detect pedestrians and blind area monitoring. It also features a proprietary technology called Wet mode that will automatically adjust the car’s traction when moving on snowy, wet or icy surfaces. Luxuries within its cabin include eleven inch touchscreens, sound system with eight speeders, keyless start, ventilated seats, leather upholstery and Apple CarPlay.
Performance
Those that purchase the Porsche 911 Turbo will get an engine that can generate 640 horsepower with 590 pounds of torque, which enables it to accelerate from zero to sixty in just 2.6 seconds, reaching a maximum speed of 205 miles per hour. The Lamborghini Huracan is outfitted with V10, 5.2 liter engine that can generate 631 horsepower that allows it to accelerate from zero to sixty in just 2.5 seconds.
The Bottom Line
While the Porsche 911 and Lamborghini Huracan take opposite design approaches and are essentially tied for performance, the Huracan has no driver assistance features, which is ridiculous given its six figure price tag, making the Porsche 911 the winner.
