Italian Police first deployed the Huracán to deliver a kidney in a hospital in Padua in 2020. It was able to ferry the kidney in less than two hours, a 300-mile journey from Rome that would have taken a speeding ambulance up to four hours.

The Huracan has a top speed of 300kmh (190mph) and the capacity to go from 0-100kmh in 3.2 seconds, making it a viable means to transport the urgently needed organs to be transplanted.

Assigned to highway patrol in Bologna, northern Italy, the Huracán was a 2017 gift to police from Italian sports car maker, Lamborghini. According to reports, the car is used for normal police operations and for urgent transport of blood and organs.
