What, You’ve Never Seen a Lamborghini Snowmobile Before?

This thing’s definitely not street legal

Some concept vehicles are great, if only in theory. Others, not so much.

Still others, like this Lamborghini Huracan Snowmobile by Rain Prisk Automotive Designs, land somewhere in the middle.

In the “Awesome” column for the snowmobile: the Huracan’s 10-cylinder engine and 610 ponies would be put to good use churning through whatever Old Man Winter can muster. In the “Not Awesome” column: the reality that the Huracan’s 3.2-second 0-62 time and 202 MPH top speed would be considerably slowed — or straight up wasted — trying to crawl through a snowbank.

In other words, the Huracan snowmobile would be massively powerful, but also massively impractical.

Regardless, until the concept winter ride actually gets built, all we can do is dream … and rewatch this video of the very real Wazuma Snow prototype from Lazareth.
