blogentry-133713-0-60613800-1549773239_thumb.jpgFor those Lamborghini fans, here's why the Italian company dropped the Huracan's 'LP610-4' designation for its new EVO variant.

 

It has been some time since Lamborghini has been using this three part naming order whereby LP stands for Longitudinale Posteriore (the engine's position in the car - Longitudinal Rear - in english), the three-digit number (the car's power output) and the last digital (the number of driven wheels). So shouldn't the new EVO also have a LP640-4 in its full model name too?

 

Well, it seems like the company realised that no one really uses the alphanumeric part of the name and dropped this naming designation for its new Huracan EVO.

 

As seen in Carscoops, Lamborghini Chief Technical Officer Maurizio Reggiani said that naming the facelifted Huracan the ‘EVO’ is easier for consumers to understand and better from a branding perspective. It is also obvious that 'EVO' is less of a mouthful than ‘Huracan LP640-4’ or something similar.

 

Similarly, it is safe to guess that the latest extreme Aventador, the SVJ, doesn’t have an alphanumeric designation either for the same reasons.

  • A 20-year journey, an old passion rekindled

    For us 90s babies, the Holy Trinity of Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network formed a big part of our childhood. The internet was just about coming into fruition, with the rise of a plethora of websites with numerous entertaining flash games and of course, the early days of YouTube. And though those things have come and gone, one thing in my life remained constant: My love for Pokemon. I first got into Pokemon 20 years ago, and I remember exactly how it went down. Let me set the

    The fun in collecting postcards without (really ever) sending them

    I believe I may not be alone when I say that I’m quite the avid collector of postcards, but rarely ever send them out to family or friends. To some, this might seem counterintuitive, even wasteful. But for me, these miniature works of art serve a different purpose. They're windows into distant lands; time capsules of bygone eras; and conversation starters par excellence. In fact, in a city as fast-paced as Singapore, where our lives often revolve around our vehicles and the next destination

    Cordless vacuum cleaners: A young adult's best friend?

    Every young adult probably arrives at the same point when they’ve started working for a few years: Household chores start to become more enjoyable. Don’t get me wrong – they don’t have to be one’s favourite activity on earth. But chores start to make sense: An environment that’s put-together is always a welcome haven, whether it’s returning home after a long day out, or simply staying in over the weekend (or when you’re working from home.) As a young adult myself, I've come to appreciate an

    Japan: The trend that became a turn-off

    Ahh Japan. The destination that many travellers desire. The perennial trending subject on social media. Japanese cuisine, culture, quirks, technology, and everything kawaii have inspired endless posts, stories, reels, YouTube videos, and TikToks. If one didn't know better, you'd think it was the dream destination on this planet. While I love the food, the service and the shopping, the sheer number of tourists (me included) has become a turn-off. I'm not talking about those who inconven
