The F-Type has standard Autonomous Emergency Braking, which use forward mounted sensors to warn the driver of a possible collision ahead. If the driver doesn’t react and the system determines a collision is imminent, it automatically applies the brakes at full-force in order to reduce the force of the crash or avoid it altogether. The Huracán doesn't offer collision warning or crash mitigation brakes.

The F-Type’s lane departure warning system alerts a temporarily inattentive driver when the vehicle begins to leave its lane. The Huracán doesn’t offer a lane departure warning system.

The F-Type’s optional blind spot warning system uses sensors to alert the driver to objects in the vehicle’s blind spots where the side view mirrors don’t reveal them. The Huracán doesn’t offer a system to reveal objects in the driver’s blind spots.

To help make backing out of a parking space safer, the F-Type’s optional Rear Traffic Warning uses sensors in the rear to alert the driver to vehicles approaching from the side and Rear Traffic Braking automatically engages the brakes to help avoid a collision. The Huracán doesn’t offer a rear cross-path warning system.

The F-Type’s driver alert monitor detects an inattentive driver then sounds a warning and suggests a break. According to the NHTSA, drivers who fall asleep cause about 100,000 crashes and 1500 deaths a year. The Huracán doesn’t offer a driver alert monitor.

The F-Type has standard SOS Emergency Call, which uses a global positioning satellite (GPS) receiver and a cellular system to remotely unlock your doors if you lock your keys in, help track down your vehicle if it’s stolen or send emergency personnel to the scene if any airbags deploy. The Huracán doesn’t offer a GPS response system, only a navigation computer with no live response for emergencies, so if you’re involved in an accident and you’re incapacitated help may not come as quickly.

Both the F-Type and the Huracán have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, side-impact head airbags, front seatbelt pretensioners, four-wheel antilock brakes, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, daytime running lights and rearview cameras.

Warranty

Jaguar pays for scheduled maintenance on the F-Type for 5 years and 60,000 miles. Jaguar will pay for oil changes, lubrication and any other required maintenance. Lamborghini doesn’t pay scheduled maintenance for the Huracán.

There are over 5 times as many Jaguar dealers as there are Lamborghini dealers, which makes it much easier should you ever need service under the F-Type’s warranty.

Reliability

The Huracán’s redline is at 8500 to 8700 RPM, which causes more engine wear, and a greater chance of a catastrophic engine failure. The F-Type has a 6800 RPM redline.

Engine

The F-Type has more powerful engines than the Huracán:

	Torque
F-Type P450 5.0 supercharged V8	428 lbs.-ft.
F-Type R 5.0 supercharged V8	516 lbs.-ft.
Huracán Sterrato 5.2 DOHC V10	413 lbs.-ft.
Huracán Evo 5.2 DOHC V10	443 lbs.-ft.
Huracán STO 5.2 DOHC V10	417 lbs.-ft.

Fuel Economy and Range

On the EPA test cycle the F-Type gets better mileage than the Huracán:

			MPG
F-Type
	RWD	5.0 supercharged V8	17 city/24 hwy
	AWD	R 5.0 supercharged V8	16 city/24 hwy
		P450 5.0 supercharged V8	16 city/24 hwy
Huracán
	RWD	5.2 DOHC V10	13 city/18 hwy
	AWD	5.2 DOHC V10	13 city/18 hwy

Environmental Friendliness

In its Green Vehicle Guide, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rates the Jaguar F-Type higher (3 out of 10) than the Lamborghini Huracán (1). This means the F-Type produces up to 22.5 pounds less smog-producing pollutants than the Huracán every 15,000 miles.

Transmission

An eight-speed automatic is standard on the Jaguar F-Type, for better acceleration and lower engine speed on the highway. Only a seven-speed automatic is available for the Huracán.

Brakes and Stopping

In an emergency stopping situation, many drivers don’t press the brakes with enough force to stop the vehicle in the shortest distance. The F-Type has standard Emergency Brake Assist to detect emergency braking situations (by how hard and how quickly the brake pedal is pressed) and then automatically apply maximum braking immediately in order to help prevent a collision. The Huracán doesn’t offer a brake assist feature.

The F-Type stops much shorter than the Huracán:

	F-Type	Huracán
80 to 0 MPH	193 feet	195 feet	Road and Track
70 to 0 MPH	137 feet	154 feet	Car and Driver
60 to 0 MPH	110 feet	111 feet	Road and Track

Tires and Wheels

For better traction, the F-Type has larger standard tires than the Huracán (F:255/35R20 & R:295/30R20 vs. F:235/40R19 & R:285/40R19). The F-Type R’s front tires are larger than the largest tires available on the Huracán (F:265/35R20 & R:305/30R20 vs. F:245/30R20 & R:305/30R20).

The F-Type’s 255/35R20 front and 295/30R20 rear tires provide better handling because they have a lower 35 series front and 30 series rear profile (height to width ratio) that provides a stiffer sidewall than the Huracán Sterrato’s standard 40 series tires.

For better ride, handling and brake cooling the F-Type has standard 20-inch wheels. Smaller 19-inch wheels are standard on the Huracán.

Suspension and Handling

The F-Type’s drift compensation steering can automatically compensate for road conditions which would cause the vehicle to drift from side to side, helping the driver to keep the vehicle straight more easily. The Huracán doesn’t offer drift compensation steering.

The F-Type’s front to rear weight distribution is more even (54.5% to 45.5%) than the Huracán’s (43% to 57%). This gives the F-Type more stable handling and braking.

For better maneuverability, the F-Type’s turning circle is 2.8 feet tighter than the Huracán’s (34.9 feet vs. 37.7 feet). The F-Type AWD’s turning circle is .7 feet tighter than the Huracán’s (37 feet vs. 37.7 feet).

Cargo Capacity

The F-Type Coupe has a much larger trunk than the Huracán Coupe (14.4 vs. 3.5 cubic feet).

To make loading and unloading groceries and cargo easier, especially for short adults, the F-Type Coupe offers an optional power trunk, which opens and closes automatically by pressing a button. The Huracán doesn’t offer a power trunk.

Servicing Ease

A maintenance reminder system is standard on the F-Type to save the owner time and money by calculating maintenance intervals for oil changes, based on odometer mileage. This takes the guesswork out of keeping your vehicle in top condition and helps it last longer. Lamborghini doesn’t offer a maintenance reminder on the Huracán.

Ergonomics

The F-Type has a standard remote vehicle starting system, so the vehicle can be started from inside the driver's house. This allows the driver to comfortably warm up the engine before going out to the vehicle. The climate system will also automatically heat or cool the interior. The Huracán doesn’t offer a remote starting system.

When three different drivers share the F-Type, the optional memory system makes it convenient for all three. Each setting activates different, customized memories for the driver and front passenger’s seat positions, steering wheel position and outside mirror angle. The Huracán doesn’t offer a memory system.

The F-Type’s standard easy entry system raises the steering wheel, making it easier for the driver to get in and out. The Huracán doesn’t offer an easy entry system.

The F-Type’s front power windows open or close with one touch of the switches, making it more convenient at drive-up windows and toll booths, or when talking with someone outside of the car. The Huracán’s power windows’ switches have to be held the entire time to close them fully.

The F-Type’s rain-sensitive wipers adjust their speed and turn on and off automatically based on the amount of rainfall on the windshield. This allows the driver to concentrate on driving without constantly adjusting the wipers. The Huracán’s manually variable intermittent wipers have to be constantly adjusted.

While driving with high beams on, sensitive light sensors standard on the F-Type detect other vehicles which could be blinded and automatically switch to low beams. The Huracán doesn’t offer automatic dimming high beams.

To help drivers avoid possible obstacles, the F-Type has standard cornering lights to illuminate around corners when the turn signals are activated. The Huracán doesn’t offer cornering lights.

The F-Type’s standard rear view mirror and optional side view mirrors have an automatic dimming feature. These mirrors can be set to automatically darken quickly when headlights shine on them, keeping following vehicles from blinding or distracting the driver. The Huracán offers an automatic rear view mirror, but its side mirrors don’t dim.

Optional air-conditioned seats in the F-Type keep the driver and front passenger comfortable and take the sting out of hot seats in Summer. The Huracán doesn’t offer air-conditioned seats.

On extremely cold winter days, the F-Type’s optional heated steering wheel provides comfort, allowing the driver to steer safely and comfortably before the car heater warms up. The Huracán doesn’t offer a heated steering wheel.

To help keep the driver’s hands on the wheel, the F-Type has standard steering wheel controls for the radio. The Huracán doesn’t offer steering wheel audio controls.

The F-Type’s optional Park Assist can parallel park by itself, with the driver only controlling speed with the brake pedal. The Huracán doesn’t offer an automated parking system.

Recommendations

The Jaguar F-Type outsold the Lamborghini Huracán by 78% during 2022.
