The 2017 Lamborghini Huracán Rear-Wheel-Drive Spyder and its predecessor, an all-wheel-drive version, are virtually identical. Aside from a subtle widening of the front air intakes and specially contoured aluminum brakes to increase downforce, you'd be hard-pressed to pick the new one out in a lineup.
