If you want to feel the force of driving a Lamborghini but don't have an extra quarter of a million dollars lying around, the brand's new online driving simulator might be just the ticket.

The simulator, which records best laps and lap time, is online and lets consumers take the 2014 Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 for a virtual test spin through keystrokes, Edmunds.com reported.

Lamborghini launched the new luxury sports vehicle at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, and models are expected to arrive at dealerships later this spring.

The Italian brand confirmed last month that more than 700 orders had been placed already for the new Lamborghini Huracán, according to the New York Daily News.

The 610-horsepower Huracán features a 5.2-liter V10 engine paired with a seven-speed dual clutch transmission.

According to Edmunds, the supercar's official pricing hasn't yet been announced, but it is expected to start around $237,000.

Lamborghini earlier launched an online configurator for the new Huracán so fans could design their own luxury model down to paint, interior styling and steering wheel leather.

Fans can go through eight steps to complete the car of their dreams. For the outside, car lovers can choose between a standard engine bonnet and a transparent option that includes a forged composite engine bay. The interior space features a plethora of trim color options ranging from standard gray to more unusual shades such as yellow and orange.

The successor to the Gallardo model, the Huracán "has been developed from scratch down to the very last detail, and, like the Gallardo and most other Lamborghini models, derives its name from the world of bullfighting," said Lamborghini, as quoted by Edmunds.

The Gallardo received a rating of 12 miles per gallon for city driving and 20 mpg on the highway from the EPA, while the Huracán features improved fuel economy of around 18.8 average mpg, according to CNET.
