You can expect all this and more in the teaser trailer for the Super Trofeo, a new racing version of the just-released 2015 Lamborghini Huracán LP610-4.

Historically, Lamborghini hasn’t been too involved in racing, but the Italian marque has found success with the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo series, which allows amateur drivers to compete in identical cars on some of the world’s best tracks.

The current Super Trofeo car is based on the Gallardo, but with that model’s discontinuation, it’s time for a new one.

Enter the Huracán Super Trofeo. It’s essentially a racing version of Lambo’s new “entry-level” supercar, with a stripped-down interior, beefed-up suspension and aerodynamics and, most likely, some extra power coming from the mid-mounted 5.2-liter V10.

The Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo will be unveiled August 15 at The Quail motorsport event, one of several gearhead gatherings held in conjunction with the annual Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Check back for more updates.

The announcement comes just as the incoming administration of President-elect Donald Trump has signaled it wants to cancel much of the existing spending on EV initiatives.

It took the established German luxury car brands a while to respond to the Tesla Model S, but Audi was quicker off the line than most. As rivals BMW and Mercedes-Benz are just now completing full lineups of EVs, Audi is moving into its next generation.

The 2025 Audi Q6 e-tron is an electric SUV aimed at the middle of the luxury market. Audi sees the Q6 e-tron as an electric equivalent to its bestselling Q5, and it faces plenty of direct competition from EVs like the Acura ZDX, Cadillac Lyriq, and Mercedes EQE SUV.
