The Lamborghini Temerario launch on April 30 is happening much earlier than the reported (late 2025). The Temerario is the successor to the Lamborghini Huracan and is powered by a plug-in hybrid system. Notably, the car’s India launch comes slightly over eight months after Lamborghini took the wraps off it in August 2024.
- Temerario packs a twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 and three electric motors
- Its 3.8kWh plug-in hybrid battery can be charged with a 7kW charger
- The steering has physical buttons; the dashboard has three digital displays
Lamborghini Temerario powertrain
920hp, 800Nm combined output
The Temerario gets a twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 mated to an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) and a trio of electric motors. Its V8 engine is good for 800hp and 730Nm and has a 10,000rpm redline. With the electric motors, the combined output rockets to 920hp and 800Nm. 0-100kph takes 2.7 seconds, and the top speed is 343kph.
3.8kWh plug-in hybrid battery
Powering the three electric motors is a small 3.8kWh battery, which can be charged to full capacity in 30 minutes using a 7kW AC charger. It can also be charged via regenerative braking or directly from the V8.
Lamborghini Temerario exterior
Hexagon-shaped lights
Many design cues of the Lamborghini supercar, like the shark-nose front-end and the lower-lip spoiler, are from previous Huracan models. However, Temerario’s roofline and side panels feature pronounced lines for aerodynamic efficiency, and the new headlights are slimmer and sit atop hexagon-shaped LED daytime running lamps. Lamborghini has given the same hexagonal treatment to the tail-lights, even extending it to centrally mounted exhaust, side mirrors and fuel-tank cap. It will offer forged and carbon-fibre options for the 20-inch (front) and 21-inch (rear) wheels.
All-aluminium spaceframe is lighter
With a new aluminium spaceframe, the Temerario offers 20 percent more torsional rigidity than the Huracan’s carbon fibre and aluminium structure. The Italian manufacturer also has a track-focused Alleggerita package, which adds several carbon-fibre exterior parts to shave off 25kg from the 1,715kg dry weight.
Lamborghini Temerario interior, features
Physical buttons on steering wheel
Temerario (top), Revuelto (bottom)
Inside, the Temerario’s aircraft-themed cabin looks very similar to the Revuelto’s. In a typical Lamborghini fashion, the centre console continues with the fighter jet-style push-start/stop button. The steering has physical buttons. Three displays – a 12.3-inch driver’s display, an 8.4-inch touchscreen in portrait orientation and a 9.1-inch passenger screen – are mounted on the dashboard. The 18-way adjustable driver’s seat is heated and ventilated.
Lamborghini Temerario price expectation
A slight cost bump over the Huracan is likely, so the Lamborghini Temerario’s ex-showroom price can be around Rs 7 crore. Rivals to the Temerario are the McLaren 750S and Ferrari 296 GTB. Stay tuned to Autocar India for more updates and the Temerario review.
