We know that supercars aren’t built for families or luggage, but seeing a demo of the trunk on a Lamborghini Huracán STO will surprise you.
Opening it is far from convenient.
Plus, it’s not entirely sure what the space was designed to carry.
In fact, this YouTuber questioned whether it was worth having one at all.

The Lamborghini Huracán STO
Lamborghini has been completely transparent about the purpose of this coveted supercar.
“A super-sports car created with a singular purpose, the Huracán STO delivers all the feel and technology of a genuine race car in a road-legal model,” their website says.
Translation: it wasn’t designed to carry cargo, more than one passenger – and certainly not Shaquille O’Neal.
So you’d think its trunk would be front of mind in its design, right? Wrong.
Its controversial trunk
First, things first, as the motorsport enthusiasts at 80Eighty demonstrated, the frunk of a $260,000 Lamborghini is a breeze to open with a touch button in its center.
While diminutive, it’s likely big enough to hold cabin luggage comfortably.
Enter the $460,000 Lamborghini Huracán STO which is a ‘little bit of a different story’.
To open it, you need to reach under the steering wheel cover and – like some kind of escape room – retrieve a tiny key.
This is then used to unlock a small lock on the vents before pushing a button to release and running around the other side of the car to do the same again before the hood lifts up.
Don’t be fooled. While the way the car opens up is grand, the ‘tiny little trunk’ beneath is anything but.
“You can fit a couple of sodas in there,” he jokes.
Which begs the question: “Is it even worth having a trunk?”

All Supercar Blondie contributors undergo editorial review and fact-checking to ensure accuracy and authority in automotive journalism. After gaining her BA Hons in French and English at the University of Nottingham, Amelia embarked on a vocational diploma from the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ). This led to numerous opportunities, from interning at Vogue to being on the small team that launched Women’s Health magazine in the UK, which was named the PPA Consumer magazine of the year for three years running. As Health, Beauty and Fitness editor, Amelia personally received a Johnson & Johnson Award and was shortlisted for both PPA and BSME titles. Since then, Amelia has created content for numerous titles and brands, including the Telegraph, 111 Skin, Waitrose, Red magazine, Stylist, and Elle, as well as being Head of Content at Vitality and Editor in Chief at INLondon magazine. “My superpower is translating technical jargon about the mechanical workings of a supercar into a relatable story you’ll want to share with your friends after you’ve read it.” After joining the SB Media family as a senior journalist in September of 2023, Amelia’s role has evolved to see her heading up the SEO output of the editorial team. From researching the most ‘Google-able’ key terms to producing evergreen content - it’s been a time of hard work, growth, and success for the editorial team and the Supercar Blondie website. “I like to think of myself as a ‘method journalist’. In other words: I live and breathe whatever I am writing about. When writing about fitness, I trained as a personal trainer, and as a beauty editor, I completed an ‘expert’ in scent diploma with the Fragrance Foundation. “During my tenure at Supercar Blondie, however, I did something I never thought possible: I passed my driving test at the age of 36. One day I’d love to train as a mechanic to better understand what happens under the hood, too. “My sweet spot is providing readers with a ‘takeaway’ (read: something new they didn’t know before) after reading every one of my stories. While I don’t claim to be an expert in the automotive world, I know the experts and bodies in the field to rely on to provide our readers with an informative and thought-provoking story every time they visit the site.”
