The Italian automaker will take advantage of the L.A. Auto Show, but the debut won’t take place inside the convention center.

According to CarBuzz, Lamborghini has confirmed it will debut a new car in Los Angeles this month, but it won’t be attending the annual auto show. The move is similar to what the company did last year, when it debuted the Huracan LP 580-2 at a special, private event before the L.A. Auto Show opened its doors to the media. The only details Lamborghini has shared is that it will be a “World premiere of the newest expression to emerge from Sant’Agata Bolognese.”

Based on recent spy photos, it is likely that the debut is the Huracan Superleggera, which spy photographers have seen testing numerous times over recent months. The company also trademarked Huracan Performante, which suggests a convertible variant of the Superleggera is also in the works. If the Huracan Superleggera coupe does bow in L.A. later this month, expect the Performante convertible version to be unveiled at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show next March.
