Lamborghini unveil the Temerario
Lamborghini have unveiled the Temerario, the marque’s new twin-turbo V8 hybrid super sports car at The Quail, the highlight of the annual Monterey Car Week in California. Succeeding the Huracán, the Temerario strives to set a new benchmark for the super sports car segment with a total power output of 677kW, reaching a top speed of more than 340km/h and accelerating from 0-100km/h just in 2.7 seconds.
The Temerario is the second Lamborghini HPEV (High Performance Electrified Vehicle) and third step in the electrification strategy for the company, completing the hybridization of the entire Lamborghini lineup following the Revuelto and the Urus SE.
The Temerario replaces the Lamborghini Huracán, which debuted in 2014 and has been the greatest-selling super sports car in the history of the Sant’Agata Bolognese-based carmaker.
“Every new Lamborghini must surpass its forerunners in performance terms.” With the Temerario, the new hybrid plug-in reaches a new paradigm in terms of performance, sportiness and driving pleasure. The Temerario is the first and only production super sports car engine able to reach 10,000 rpm: a feat typically only achieved in motorsports.

"With the Temerario, we’ve exceeded our expectations with what the mid-engine sports car can be in terms of performance and design,” said Winkelmann. “The Temerario completes the next chapter in our Direzione Cor Tauri plan by hybridizing the full product line, while we continue the development of our full electric model debuting at the end of the decade.”
In addition to the Temerario, the full hybrid product line took center stage at the annual automotive event, including the flagship Revuelto and super SUV Urus SE.
