Lamborghini used to drop kidney 500 km away in 2 hours by Italian police

Rome: Police in Italy proved their efficiency by rushing a kidney to a hospital in one of the super-fast Lamborghinis they have at their disposal. The police officers drove the blue and white Lamborghini Huracan LP610-4, which can reach speeds of up to 143 mph (230 kph), to drive 310 miles (500km) to drop off the kidney.

A video of the event was shared on Twitter and has gone viral since. The caption reads, 'Thanks to our @Lamborghini Huracan, we delivered a donor kidney for transplant to a person in time, 'to save a life you don't need superpowers' solidarity, technology and efficiency also help'.

It took the officers around two hours to get to the hospital; it would normally have taken anyone six hours to travel the distance. 

Transporting organs, plasma and vaccines is the primary function of the police's Lamborghini Huracan - it is fitted with a special cold box for the organs.

In 2015, Lamborghini gifted the Italian state police with a new Huracan LP610-4, just as they had with its predecessor, the Gallardo LP560-4 back in 2008. The Huracan, which has a top speed of 202 miles per hour, has a large enough front trunk to place the cooler for the kidney that was needed, as well as the usability for the officer driving the car to safely transport the organ to the hospital for surgery very quickly and securely. 

While this car is usually used in shows, the police wasted no time using it for its intended purpose for such an important surgery.
