Watch Someone Attempt to Tow 10,000 Pounds With a Lamborghini
Thanks to the Urus SUV, it's possible to tow a Lamborghini with another Lamborghini. That being said, the Lambo truck, put bluntly, is largely an Audi Q8 underneath. Yes, the Urus has a bunch of incredible upgrades that make it worthy of carrying the Lamborghini badge, but it uses the same basic chassis as the Audi crossover. YouTuber Alex Choi wanted to prove a point that yes, you can tow a Lamborghini with a real Lamborghini. And he used his personal Huracán to do it.
Choi's Huracán is far from stock. It uses body panels from the Huracán GT3 race car and sports a twin-turbo system from Sheepy Race, allowing the 5.2-liter V-10 behind the cabin to push over 1200 horsepower to the wheels. It's also been converted to rear-wheel-drive—not to cut weight or give the car more balance, but so Choi could do more burnouts. For this latest stunt, it's also been given a beefy class IV hitch with all of the correct wiring to tow a full-size single-car trailer.
After acquiring a trailer from U-Haul, Choi first attempts to tow his own Audi RS 6, which, to everyone's surprise, goes well. Because the car is so powerful, it can pull the 7000-pound load up to highway speeds, though Choi says it's a bit too sketchy over 70 mph, likely because the Huracán's suspension wasn't tuned to handle three times the car's weight. After sourcing a bigger trailer, he goes on to tow another Huracán and a Urus without issue. Choi also elects to do a bunch of stupid, dangerous stuff on public roads while towing, including burnouts and high-speed pulls. He even loads up a couple of junk cars without strapping them down and speeds off with the trailer in tow, allowing the cars to violently fall off as the Huracán accelerates away. So, don't try this at home, or anywhere.
Though Choi's Huracán escaped its time as a hauler seemingly unscathed, we fully expect the clutches in that seven-speed transmission to be toast. There's no way all of that extra load didn't trash something in the drivetrain, especially with all of the burnouts involved.
