As per the title, any educated guesses or snippets from factory visits, dealer info etc. please? I'm guessing that the carbon fibre rear bulkhead would make a hard top more likely but I'm not an automotive engineer. First viewing in Geneva next year?
Wild speculation is also welcomed, many thanks!

Hoping for a hardtop, as I'll be up for one when the SL version is out in 4/5 years time , should be bored of the Speciale by then :-)

Soft-tops are becoming passé. The 458 and MP4 have set the standards. The Huracan Spyder needs to be a hardtop if Lamborghini want to stay relevant in the market place. Hoping it won't be a removable hardtop like the Aventador Roadster. If it is then Lamborghini will surely be falling behind the competition.

I'd like to think it'll be a folding hard top like the rivals, but Lambo have always been known to tread the less beaten path so I'm thinking it'll be a soft top like the Gallardo.

It allows for a much cleaner profile when down and I think they will do it because it'll be a 'proper' convertible then. In all fairness the 12C/650S and 458 Spiders are fancy targas really.

Convinced it will be a folding hardtop
