About Temerario
The Temerario had the unenviable job of replacing the Huracan and its beloved naturally aspirated V10. Revealed in 2024, it swapped that engine for an all-new twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 that revs to an astonishing 10,000 rpm, paired with three electric motors for a combined output of roughly 900 metric horsepower. Its name translates roughly as daring or reckless, and its sharp, hexagon-themed styling marked a clear evolution of the look established by the Revuelto.
Early skeptics mourned the V10's howl, but reviewers have largely come around, praising the V8's fury at high revs, the car's straight-line pace and its everyday comfort, and one American magazine found it the quickest gasoline-engined car it had ever tested. Critics still note its weight, its complexity and a soundtrack that cannot quite match its predecessor. A lighter Alleggerita package, a Super Trofeo racer and special editions such as the two-tone Tettonero have widened the range.
The Temerario competes with the Ferrari 296 and its Speciale, the McLaren 750S and Artura and the Porsche 911 Turbo S, and it sits below the V12 Revuelto in Lamborghini's lineup. An open Spyder version has been widely expected, and enthusiasts have grown impatient for it. Like every current Lamborghini, the Temerario is a plug-in hybrid, a product of the company's plan to cut emissions while keeping its cars as loud and dramatic as ever.
News about the Temerario includes first drives and instrumented tests, track comparisons, new editions, racing results, recalls and the arrival of the Spyder. It is also the car that will determine how Lamborghini's core buyers feel about the hybrid era, since the baby bull has always been the brand's volume supercar, and its reception will shape how far Sant'Agata pushes electrification in the next generation. So far, the early verdict is that the magic survived the loss of two cylinders.
