Bologna Airport has a Lamborghini Huracán
Those of you with especially good memories will remember that a few years ago, TG joined Heathrow Airport’s airside operations team for a day. They asked us to bring a suitable car, a pick-up or SUV perhaps. So of course we called Lamborghini and borrowed an Aventador. As you do.
Happily, Lambo itself is carrying on the tradition of foisting its cars on airports that probably don’t really want them, having just handed Bologna Airport a Huracán. Decked out in a special livery designed by Centro Stile, and equipped with radios, a light-bar and “Follow Me” stickers, the Huracán will be used to guide planes from the runway to the terminal and vice versa.
The Huracán in question is an old, rear-wheel drive car rather than the new Huracán Evo. And that’s just fine – the 5.2-litre N/A V10 makes 572bhp, propelling the car to 100kph in 3.4 seconds and on to just shy of 322kph. Plenty quick enough for… trundling around an airfield at 50kph.
This is actually the sixth time Lambo has lent Bologna Airport a car. Long may the partnership continue.
