Lamborghini has unveiled its latest supercar, the Temerario, marking a significant step in the company’s electrification strategy. This hybrid powerhouse, which replaces the long-standing Huracán model, combines a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine with three electric motors to produce a total output of 907 horsepower (920 PS).The Temerario showcases impressive performance metrics, accelerating from 0-62 mph in just 2.7 seconds and reaching a top speed of over 210 mph. ‘With the Temerario, we complete a fundamental chapter of our electrification strategy, becoming the first luxury brand to launch a fully electric range,’ stated Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Lamborghini.Lamborghini has introduced several technological advancements with the Temerario. The car features a new aluminum spaceframe chassis, which is 20% stiffer than its predecessor. It also boasts advanced aerodynamics, generating 158% more downforce than the Huracán EVO. The Temerario offers various driving modes, including a near-silent, front-wheel-drive electric operation for short distances.The interior of the Temerario is designed to provide a ‘pilot-like’ experience, featuring a new Human-Machine Interface (HMI) and advanced connectivity options. It includes a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, an 8.4-inch central touchscreen, and a 9.1-inch passenger display. The car is also compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.Lamborghini has paid special attention to the Temerario’s sound design, creating a unique acoustic experience that varies with different driving modes. The company also offers an ‘Alleggerita’ lightweight package, which reduces the car’s weight by 55 pounds through the use of carbon fiber components.While pricing details have not been officially announced, industry experts expect the Temerario to command a premium over its predecessor, with estimates ranging between £275,000 and £300,000. As Lamborghini continues its transition towards electrification, the company plans to introduce its first fully electric vehicle later this decade, while maintaining internal combustion engines for its supercars ‘as long as possible’.
