Key Takeaways
- Lamborghini unveils limited edition Huracan STJ; limited to 10 units, influenced by Super Trofeo racing cars.
- STJ features the same V10 engine as STO but with exclusive performance enhancement package.
- Equipped with a unique aero package providing an additional 10% downforce, and racing shocks.
- Bespoke Bridgestone Potenza Race tires on 20-inch centerlock wheels.
A few days later than anticipated, Lamborghini has revealed the Huracan STJ, a limited-edition supercar of which only 10 units will be built, celebrating the last iteration of the V10 supercar before a replacement is announced later this year. Based on the Huracan STO, the STJ is extremely influenced by the Super Trofeo one-make racing cars the manufacturer sells to clients. STJ stands for Super Trofeo Jota, making this the latest in a long line of special edition models with the Jota suffix, and a model accurately predicted by CarBuzz prior to its official unveiling.

Elevating Performance Above The STO
At its heart is a 5.2-liter naturally aspirated V10 engine, producing the same 631 horsepower and 418 lb-ft of torque as the STO, directed to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. The differences lie not in the powertrain but in the “exclusive performance enhancement package” equipped to the STJ. This comprises a unique aero package developed by Lamborghini Squadra Corse technicians comprising new aero flicks and an increase in rear wing angle of 3°, resulting in a 10% increase in aerodynamic load without upsetting the car’s inherent balance.
At each corner, four racing-derived shocks with adjustable rebound and compression properties aid grip, allowing the driver to tailor the experience for the track they’re driving on. The grip is enhanced further with a set of specially developed Bridgestone Potenza Race tires on 20-inch interlocking alloy wheels. Despite the lack of additional power and torque, the chassis and aerodynamic enhancements result in a one-second quicker lap time around the Nardò Technical Center Handling Track than that of the Huracán STO.
Bespoke Huracán STJ Aesthetics
At first glance, the Huracán STJ looks like its STO sibling, but Lamborghini has made a few visual tweaks to differentiate them. Lamborghini provides two distinct design themes for the 10 buyers to choose from, designed by Lamborghini Centro Stile:
- An exterior in Grigio Telesto (grey) bodywork with a Nero Noctis (black) roof and details in Rosso Mars (red) and Bianco Isi (white). The interior has Nero Cosmus (black) Alcantara seating with leather accents and contrast stitching in Rosso Alala (red).
- The exterior painted in Blue Eliadi (blue) with a Nero Noctis (black) roof and the same Rosso Mars and Bianco Isi detailing.
Inside each specification, a carbon fiber plaque denotes the car as “1 of 10,” while buyers can spec an additional plaque of their choosing to be displayed on the passenger-side dash.
What Comes Next?
With the announcement of the Huracán STJ, Lamborghini has once again reiterated that this is the end of the road for the Huracan, which was first revealed a decade ago in 2014. Dubbed the “last celebration of the super sports car equipped with the V10 engine,” the brand will replace the Huracán by the end of this year with a new model. Based on recent trademark filings, we believe this successor will be called the Lamborghini Temerario, but while its name hasn’t officially been confirmed, Lamborghini has said the new supercar will have a “new hybrid powertrain,” supporting reports that the V10 is gone and that a new engine will emerge in its place.
