Lamborghini became the first automaker to integrate Alexa into its vehicle management system.

At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week, Lamborghini revealed that the Huracan EVO is the first car to integrate Amazon Alexa to control vehicle systems. Other automakers have also integrated Alexa, but have been limited to cloud-based controls.

Voice commands allow the driver to adjust air conditioning, interior lighting, heated seats, and even drive modes through Alexa.

The system also offers cloud-based services, as do other automakers. Drivers can use voice commands to make phone calls, get directions, play music and audiobooks, and check the weather and news.

"Our vision is for Alexa to become a natural and intuitive part of the driving experience, and Lamborghini is embracing that by integrating Alexa directly into the in-car infotainment system," Ned Curic, Amazon's VP of Alexa Auto said in a statement.

Alexa will also work with a growing number of connected devices. Drivers will be able to control their home thermostats, entry gates (ed. note: probably appropriate for many Lambo owners), and lighting. More features are sure to be added as Amazon Alexa grows, and Lamborghini says the vehicle's infotainment will allow for future Alexa updates. The two companies are also developing further connectivity with Amazon Web Services, the company's database, developer, and cloud computing infrastructure.

The Lamborghini Huracan was updated in 2019 and renamed the Huracan EVO. Its 5.2-liter V10 engine produces 640 hp and can launch from 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds with the help of a standard all-wheel drive system. On Saturday, Lamborghini unveiled a rear-wheel drive version of the Huracan Evo for the 2020 model year. With a maximum output of 610 hp, the car can reach 62 mph from a standstill in 3.3 seconds and can drift in Sport mode. A rear-drive version of the Huracan Evo will be available this spring, priced at $208,571 before destination.
