Can you go buy bread with a Lamborghini Huracán Performante? The YouTuber Pog shows us that you can, although with a few drawbacks

We’ve all probably heard that expression about certain sports cars at some point, used to emphasise their versatility, and it goes like this: “it’s good enough to pop out for a bread run on Sundays“. However, this charming phrase is a double-edged sword, since plenty of people also use it ironically to suggest that some owners only use these vehicles for running errands. But the acclaimed Belgian YouTuber better known as Pog has decided to put an end to all these assumptions and fallacies and go and test the truth of this saying himself with one of his gems: a Lamborghini Huracán Performante Spyder.

Pog is known as one of the most eccentric and charismatic owners of supercars on the current scene, as he uses them without hesitation and with gusto. We saw some time ago how this YouTuber turned his Lamborghini Aventador into a driving simulator, but this time he has chosen to use his Performante, one of his latest acquisitions, to carry out a very common task: going out to buy bread and the newspaper on a Sunday morning.

In the opening shots we see Pog walk into a bakery to get his baguette and enjoy breakfast. However, the calm and peace inside the shop is quickly shattered by the awakening of the Huracán Performante, one of the latest creations from the people at Sant’Agata Bolognese.

Without wasting any time, Pog engages Corsa mode, which brings out the most radical side of the bull, while the naturally aspirated V10 comes to life. There’s no doubt that this is the moment when we know things are about to get interesting. Foot to the floor, and we watch the baguette and the newspaper get catapulted backwards amid the crackling from the Performante’s exhaust system, which leads the driver to put them back on the dashboard several times.

The 640 CV of power and 600 Nm of torque produced by the 5.2-litre V10 quickly make their presence felt in the short video. However, within a few seconds calm returns, and Pog prepares breakfast on the forged carbon fibre rear spoiler, an expensive material that is unaffected by either Nutella or breadcrumbs that scatter across it after an intense bite.

The moral of this brief but intense story is that, after supercars have taken centre stage in today’s market, we have seen that they are increasingly versatile. It’s true that their main purpose is not going out to buy bread, but this video is irrefutable proof that it can be done without any problem at all in one of the most radical supercars of the moment, the Lamborghini Huracán Performante.
