Lamborghini Huracan STO

The success of the Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO and Huracan GT3 EVO race cars is undoubted. Because of this, Lamborghini has decided to create what’s essentially a street-legal version of the race car, the new Lamborghini Huracan STO (Super Trofeo Omologato). This V10-powered supercar has all of the knowledge from Squadra Corse’s team behind it while being able to cruise on public roads.

Across the exterior of the Huracan STO are new components and features that aim to increase its aerodynamics and downforce, just like any race car. Upfront, Lamborghini’s engineers combined the bonnet, fenders, and bumper into one single piece, similar to the Miura and Sesto Elemento. The air ducts on the front bonnet increase airflow to the central radiator while the front splitter aids in the creation of downforce. The rear of the new Huracan STO is where some of the most extreme aerodynamic components can be found. First up is the imposing adjustable rear wing with the double airfoil setup. Resting on top of the engine bay is a wicked shark fin that’s integrated into the revised rear bonnet.

The sky’s the limit with the Bell 505. A high-tech flight deck and adaptable cabin design make it extremely cost-competitive, and capable for any challenge. Whether moving people or cargo, the 505 is the newest force in the market. An open cabin with integrated tie-downs, movable seats and the ability to adapt to a variety of jobs keep this aircraft in high demand.

Mission Specific Design: Get an interior that matches your mission—even if it changes. The fully flat floor, complete with tie-downs, offers the flexibility you need for whatever your mission requires.

Flexible Cabin Space: Need more space? No problem. With more rear-cabin room than any aircraft in its class and removable seats, the Bell 505 adapts to you, not the other way around.

2021 Lamborghini Huracan STO Revealed: A Street-Legal Race Car

The success of the Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO and Huracan GT3 EVO race cars is undoubted. And because of this, Lamborghini has decided to bring create what’s essentially a street-legal version of the race car to life. Introducing the new Lamborghini Huracan STO (Super Trofeo Omologato). This V10-powered supercar has all of the knowledge from Squadra Corse’s team behind it but has the ability to cruise on public roads.

Across the exterior of the Huracan STO are new components and features that aim to increase its aerodynamics and downforce, just like any race car. Upfront, Lamborghini’s engineers combined the bonnet, fenders and bumper into one single piece, similar to the Miura and Sesto Elemento. The air ducts of the front bonnet increase airflow to the central radiator while the front splitter aids in the creation of downforce.

In the rear of the new Huracan STO is where some of the most extreme aerodynamic components can be found. First up is the imposing adjustable rear wing with the double airfoil setup. Drivers can manually adjust this rear wing quite easily depending on their needs. Resting on top of the engine bay is a wicket shark fin that’s integrated into the revised rear bonnet. Lamborghini notes that this shark fin will aid in the supercar’s cornering abilities as well as straighten airflow onto the rear wing. When viewed from the top, the rear wing, shark fin and slotted engine bay cover are a sight to behold.

While creating each of these exterior components, Lamborghini ensured that they were not only lightweight but also rigid. Naturally, they went with carbon fiber. In fact, more than 75 percent of the Huracan STO’s exterior panels are comprised of carbon fiber. In the end, the Huracan STO is not only incredibly light but its aerodynamic efficiency is increased by 37 percent over the Huracan Performante and downforce is improved by 53 percent.

Powering the Huracan STO is a naturally-aspirated V10 engine that produces 640 horsepower and 417 lb-ft of torque. This power is sent to the rear wheels for a 0 to 62 mph time of three seconds and a top speed of 192.6 mph. That being said, it’s not the Huracan STO’s acceleration or top speed where it till shine– it’s on the track.

Aiding the Lamborghini Huracan STO in its efforts on the track are three new ANIMA driving modes: STO, Trofeo and Pioggia. The STO mode is meant for road driving and will be the go-to mode for everyday cruising. As for Trofeo, this mode will optimize all systems for the fastest lap times. Think of this mode as race mode. Then there’s Pioggia mode which is essentially rain mode as it optimizes all systems for wet asphalt.

In the cabin where the modes can be selected is an interior that was designed with racing in mind. For the sake of weight, the sport seats are crafted out of carbon fiber, carpets were removed and replaced with carbon fiber floor mates, and even the door panels are made of carbon fiber. Basically, just about everything is carbon fiber in the Huracan STO’s interior. Lamborghini also tapped Akrapovič for the rear arch that’s made of titanium allows and is 40 percent lighter than the standard stainless-steel arches.

The new Lamborghini Huracan STO price is set at $327,838 with deliveries expected to start in Spring 2021.

Introducing the New 2021 Ford Bronco

After years and years of waiting the new 2021 Ford Bronco has officially been unveiled. Technically, the new 2021 Broncos have been unveiled because Ford is introducing the two-door and four-door variants of the next-generation Bronco.

Carrying over from the first generation of the Bronco is the term G.O.A.T., a nickname given to those first American SUVs. Now, the term G.O.A.T will be found in the modes that allow the Bronco to traverse just about any terrain. These modes include: Normal, Eco, Sport, Slippery and Sand, with Baja, Mud/Ruts and Rock Crawl.

“Bronco’s advanced four-wheel-drive technology is at the core of its off-road capabilities, and at the heart of it all is Bronco’s exclusive Terrain Management System™ with G.O.A.T. Modes™ that is designed to help drivers better navigate any type of terrain,” said Mark Grueber, Bronco consumer marketing manager.

Pre-production versions of the all-new 2021 Bronco family of all-4×4 rugged SUVs, shown here, include Bronco Sport in Rapid Red Metallic Tinted Clearcoat, Bronco two-door in Cyber Orange Metallic Tri-Coat and Bronco four-door in Cactus Gray.

Paired up with the new G.O.A.T. system are two different 4×4 setups: base and advanced. The base system has a two-speed electronic shift-on-the-fly transfer case, while the advanced has a two-speed electromechanical transfer case that has an auto-mode for “on-demand engagement to select between 2H and 4H,” according to Ford. All of the power for this system is transferred to both the Dana 44 AdvanTEK solid rear axle and Dana AdvanTEK independent front different unit.

As for power, there are options to be had. Ford notes that there will be a 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 engine with 310 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque, and a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine that produces 270 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. It should be noted that these power figures are currently projected. Mated to the engines can be the segment-exclusive 7-speed manual transmission or SelectShift 10-speed automatic transmissions.

Whichever model you pick, two-door or four-door, you can make your driving experience an open-air one in an instance thanks to the standard three-section roof system. What’s more Ford does note that the removable roof sections or cloth soft top can be removed easily by one person, so you don’t have to beg for help when you want the wind in your hair.

Because the new Bronco is an off-road-ready SUV, Ford has set it up with a lot of options that make it a formidable vehicle for trails. One feature that will catch the eye of any adventurer are the topographic map trails that include more than 1,000 curated trail maps, powered by NeoTreks’ AccuTerra® Maps, Trails Offroad trail guides and FunTreks trail guides.

When on those trails, the Bronco’s optional 35-inch off-road tires will and best-in-class 94.75:1 crawl ratio will make waste of any rocks that get in the way. Ford also says that the Bronco has a best-in-class fording capability of up to 33.5-inches, which is a talking point that unfortunately rarely comes up nowadays.

So, when is the new 2020 Ford Bronco coming out and how much will it cost? Ford says that the production of the new Broncos will begin in early 2021 with first models arriving in dealership in spring 2021. If you’re interested, you can drop a $100 deposit not yo reserve a Bronco for yourself. As for price, it depends on the model. The 2021 Bronco price is set at $29,995 for the two-door while 2021 Bronco four-door comes in at $34,995. As for the 2021 Bronco Sport, that will start at $28,155.
