- lamborghini has announced that it will offer amazon alexa integration in the 2020 huracán evo.
- drivers will be able to use the cloud-based voice service for tasks such as adjusting the climate control, playing music, and changing the interior lighting.
- the huracán evo will add alexa starting this spring. it's available on both the all-wheel-drive and newly announced rear-wheel-drive models.
hey alexa, play "mercy" by kanye west. hey alexa, turn my seat heater on. hey alexa, turn the temperature to 70 degrees. these are some of the voice controls that drivers can utilize through amazon alexa, which will soon be available on the 2020 lamborghini huracán evo.
unfortunately, one in-cabin control you can't use with alexa in the lambo is switching among the three driving modes. drivers can adjust climate, interior lighting, seat heating, and entertainment, and they can also get directions simply by saying "hey alexa." however, the italian super-sports-car manufacturer isn't the first automaker to offer in-car controls through the cloud-based voice service from amazon.
expect to see even more cars with alexa integration in the future, as ned curic, vice president of alexa auto, says the company's vision is "for alexa to become a natural, intuitive part of the driving experience." it's currently available in select audi, ford, lexus, lincoln, and toyota models.
deliveries of huracán evo cars equipped with amazon alexa are slated to commence in spring 2020, and alexa-equipped cars will be available through 2020 on awd and the newly announced rwd models.
