FYI: Lamborghini introduces the all-new Temerario, packing a stunning 907 horsepower and advanced tech features for an unparalleled driving experience.
The much-anticipated successor to the Lamborghini Huracan has arrived — meet the Lamborghini Temerario, a powerhouse that combines cutting-edge technology with classic Lambo flair. Sporting a new twin-turbo V8 engine and three electric motors, this beast boasts an impressive 907 horsepower and 538 pound-feet of torque, making it one of the most formidable supercars on the market today.
Lamborghini’s High-Revving Twin-Turbo V8
The heart of the Temerario is a bespoke 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8, developed uniquely by Lamborghini rather than borrowed from Audi, as seen in the Urus. This exceptional engine delivers 789 horsepower, featuring titanium connecting rods and a flat-plane crankshaft. It’s crafted from a motorsport-grade alloy, allowing it to scream at an astonishing 10,000 rpm. The dry sump lubrication system ensures a lower center of gravity and optimal oil delivery through a sophisticated five-gear scavenge pump.
Turbo Power and Electric Precision
Power from the V8 is harnessed through an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, aided by an electric starter generator motor that fills the torque gap and smoothens starts. Additionally, two electric motors independently power the front axles, contributing to the Temerario’s total output of 907 horsepower. This hybrid setup not only enhances acceleration and AWD capability but also allows short-distance all-electric driving, significantly reducing CO2 emissions.
Performance and Specifications
- Engine: 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8
- Power: 789 horsepower (engine) / 907 horsepower (total)
- Torque: 538 lb-ft
- 0-60 mph: 2.6 seconds

Sleek and Aggressive Design
True to Lamborghini’s design ethos, the Temerario features a wedge-shaped body that’s both aggressive and elegant. It is about five inches longer than the Huracan, offering a striking road presence. The design cleverly integrates hexagonal motifs within the running lights, grille, and center-mounted exhaust, enhancing its iconic look.
Advanced Cockpit and Customization
Inside, the Temerario offers a virtual cockpit with three digital displays: a 12.3-inch instrument panel, an 8.4-inch center console, and a 9.1-inch passenger display. This setup features a configurable dashboard that can mirror the Audi virtual cockpit style. Onboard cameras can double as dash cams and be monitored remotely, ensuring security.
Customization is key with the Temerario, as Lamborghini offers 400 paint colors through its Ad Personam program and the Alleggerita lightweight package, which includes carbon wheels, titanium exhausts, and polycarbonate windows, reducing the car’s weight by approximately 55 kilograms.
Enhanced Space and Comfort
The cabin is roomier than its predecessor, providing more legroom, headroom, and better visibility, even accommodating drivers up to 6 feet 6 inches tall.
Driving Modes for Every Experience
While Lamborghini has been tight-lipped about the chassis specifics, they did reveal 13 driving experiences and five primary drive modes: Città (urban), Strada, Sport, Corsa, and Corsa Plus. Launch control and a Drift mode with three levels of lateral movement promise exhilarating drives on any terrain.
Conclusion
The 2025 Lamborgini Temerario is not just a successor to the Huracan but a quantum leap in performance, technology, and design. With deliveries expected in early 2025, this supercar stands ready to captivate enthusiasts worldwide.
