Experiencing the Thrill of Driving a Lamborghini Temerario
Get ready for an adrenaline rush like no other, as Lamborghini prepares to unveil its latest creation - the Temerario. This plug-in hybrid sports car is set to take over from the iconic Huracán this fall, promising a combined power output of 907 bhp (920 CV) from a new 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine.
Hybrid Powertrain and Chassis
At the heart of the Temerario lies a unique hybrid powertrain. The V8 engine is combined with two electric motors on the front axle for improved torque vectoring and a third motor integrated between the engine and an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 3.8 kWh battery, positioned low in the central tunnel, ensures an optimal centre of gravity.
The car boasts a new aluminium monocoque chassis that improves rigidity, occupant space, and saves weight. Aerodynamics are enhanced with active aero elements such as rear diffuser flaps, providing up to 25% more downforce than the Huracán STO. The design blends aggressive Lamborghini styling with functional cutaways that expose wide 325/30 ZR21 rear tires.
Driving Dynamics and Character
The Temerario promises a driving experience that emphasizes fun, playfulness, and accessible handling. Advanced asymmetrical electric torque vectoring technology is used to deliver a "tearaway" sports car experience, enjoyable even at sub-maximum attack on tracks.
Interior and Technology
The cockpit retains Lamborghini's "fighter-jet" inspired elements, with a "Direzione Anima" selector now controlling four drive modes — Recharge, Città, Sport, and Corsa — optimizing hybrid system and vehicle behaviour for different conditions.
Options
For those seeking even more performance, an Alleggerita Package is available. This includes lightweight carbon panels, a rear ducktail for increased downforce, carbon fiber wheels, and a titanium exhaust, reducing weight by approximately 25 kg in total.
A New Era for Lamborghini
In summary, the Temerario is a high-performance hybrid supercar that balances Lamborghini's trademark aggressive design and thrilling engine note with next-generation electrified technology focused on enhancing driving enjoyment and dynamic control. It ushers in a new era beyond the naturally aspirated V10 Huracán it replaces.
