The Lamborghini Temerario is a mid-engine plug-in hybrid sports car produced by the Italian automobile manufacturer Lamborghini. This car marks the return of a V8 mid-engined Lamborghini model, the first since the 1981 Lamborghini Jalpa.[3][4] It is the second Lamborghini after the Urus to be offered with a twin-turbocharged V8.[5]
History
[edit]Lamborghini announced the debut of the Temerario in July, 2024, with an X post on August 15th announcing an unveiling event for the new car at 7 PM Central European Summer Time, which occurred on August 16th at Monterey Car Week.[6][7]
Name
[edit]In keeping with the Lamborghini tradition of naming car models after famous fighting bulls, Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann stated that "Temerario is the name of a fighting bull that fought in 1875, and Temerario means fierce, courageous."[8]
Powertrain
[edit]
The all-new flat-plane hot vee 4.0L (3995.2 cc) V8 engine produces 800 PS (588 kW; 789 hp) from 9,000 to 9,750 rpm and 730 N⋅m (538 lb⋅ft) of torque between 4,000 and 7,000 rpm,[9] with a 10,250 rpm redline, making the Temerario the first ever Lamborghini to safely rev past 10,000 rpm. To allow it to rev higher, it has titanium connecting rods, a short stroke, and a flat plane crankshaft. The electric motor between the engine and gearbox produces 300 N⋅m (221 lb⋅ft) and 150 PS (110 kW; 148 hp) at 3,500 rpm.[10] There are two other electric motors on the front axle.[11] The motors make use of axial-flux electric motors that provide a larger magnetic surface for better performance. Combined power output is 920 PS (677 kW; 907 hp).[12][8] The engine is mechanically unrelated to the 4.0L (3996 cc) hot vee Volkswagen-Audi V8 engine (4.0 TFSI). The Temerario uses the existing 3.8 kWh battery pack from the Lamborghini Revuelto.
Transmission
[edit]The Temerario uses an adapted version of the Revuelto’s 8-speed dual-clutch transmission.[10] The gearbox is transverse and mounted behind the engine.
Performance
[edit]Lamborghini has stated that the maximum speed of the Temerario is 343 km/h (213 mph), and it can accelerate from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 2.7 seconds. Braking from 100-0 km/h takes 32 m (105 ft).[1]
Variants
[edit]Porto Cervo (2025)
[edit]The Temerario Porto Cervo is a one-off presented in Porto Cervo, Sardinia, built by the special Ad Personam department, with a Grigio Serget livery.[13][14]
Portofino (2026)
[edit]The Temerario Portofino is a one-off unveiled on 26 February 2026, built by the special Ad Personam department, with a Blu Uranus livery. The interiors are Blu Delphinus and Blu Cepheus. The wheels are Algareno Cast 20/21" Diamond Cut Matt Titanium, and finally, with Blu CCB brake calipers.[15][16]
Motorsport
[edit]GT3
[edit]Lamborghini is developing a GT3 racing version of the Temerario, built to Group GT3 regulations. This car will see its race debut in 2026, and will replace the Huracán GT3 Evo 2 as Lamborghini's main GT3 racecar. It will be using the same twin-turbo V8 as the street car, but without electric motors, as these are not allowed in GT3 racing.[17] The car made its first competitive start at the 2026 12 Hours of Sebring, finishing 10th in the GTD Pro class after completing 320 laps.[18]
Super Trofeo
[edit]Lamborghini unveiled the Super Trofeo in August 2025 with plans to introduce a Super Trofeo version of the Temerario in 2027, replacing the Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2.[17]
