Lamborghini Huracan Joins Italian Police Force
The Italian State Police has received a generous donation from Lamborghini.
The Italian automaker has donated the police version of its all-new Huracán super sports car to the Italian State Police, which Lamborghini has had a relationship with for over a decade. The Huracán will replace the Gallardos used by the Italian police force since 2004. Rome’s police force has operated the first-generation Gallardo in regular police service since 2004, in addition to another Gallardo that is run by Bologna’s police since 2005. Both vehicles were replaced by second-generation Gallardos in 2008.

The new Huracán has been painted in accordance with requirements in “blu Polizia” and features the white stripes and lettering following the sports car’s dynamic design language. There’s a classic array of police equipment on board and the vehicle will be used for rapid response in medical emergencies. Just to ensure everything performs as expected, even the police beacon on the roof has been aerodynamically optimized with an extremely flat construction.
“We have a strong and fitting relationship with the Italian State Police,” said Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann. “The new Lamborghini Huracán stands for Italian super sports car excellence and we are proud to provide it to the Italian State Police to carry out the specialist tasks these police cars undertake.”
