Lamborghini temerario is the Replacement of Lamborghini Huracan. The New Temerario Comes with V8 Engine.
A decade following the introduction of the Lamborghini Huracán, the renowned Italian supercar experts from Sant’Agata Bolognese are unveiling its successor, the Temerario. Distinct from its predecessors, the Huracán and Gallardo, the Temerario features a V-8 engine complemented by three electric motors, marking a departure from the traditional V-10 engine. This modern hybrid powertrain, in addition to its sleek design, is engineered with a keen focus on aerodynamics and practicality for everyday use. With the Temerario, Lamborghini has fully embraced the concept of hybridization across its entire lineup.
Lamborghini Temerario – Exterior Design
The Temerario is undeniably a Lamborghini in appearance, with its iconic wedge shape and sharp details, though it’s slightly longer at over five inches compared to the Huracán. This reflects the modern trend in Lamborghini fashion, which is characterized by hexagonal elements. The most striking of these are the daytime running lights, which are positioned in the lower bumper and feature an air tunnel that, along with air channels below the headlights, directs cool air to the brakes.
Further down the side, a large air intake is positioned just ahead of the rear wheels to supply the twin-turbo engine, supported by two additional ducts located above the Temerario’s shoulder line and behind the side window.
Hexagons reappear on the rear end, complemented by the straightforward taillights and the center-mounted exhaust pipe, which are positioned beneath a fixed rear spoiler. A broad diffuser, featuring the rear bodywork cut away around the rear tires, imbues the Temerario with a formidable stance. Air is directed to the diffuser via a network of underbody fins.
Lamborghini Temerario – Interior
The interior seamlessly continues the motifs found outside, featuring hexagonal air vents and a steering wheel inspired by motorsports. The iconic Lamborghini start/stop button is nestled under a red flap, and Launch Control can be activated with just a single press of a button. The cabin is more comfortable than ever before, equipped with an 18-way adjustable seat that offers both heating and ventilation. High-quality materials are used extensively, including carbon, leather, and suede. Lamborghini also highlights that the new aluminum space-frame chassis has increased interior space, providing over an inch of extra headroom and legroom. The front trunk boasts a capacity of roughly four cubic feet.
The driver receives information through a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, while the passenger side features a 9.1-inch screen that showcases driving details and vehicle functions. However, the primary entertainment and navigation systems are accessed through an 8.4-inch screen located in the center of the dashboard. Additionally, apps can be easily transferred from the central screen to the displays on either side. The infotainment system is equipped with wireless support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The Temerario can also be customized with three cameras, which include a built-in dash cam and a “Memories Recorder” feature, allowing owners to record up to two minutes of driving. These cameras also support Lamborghini Telemetry 2.0, an onboard app designed to provide real-time data while driving on racetracks, with over 150 circuits pre-programmed.
Lamborghini Temerario – Powertrain
The heart of the Lamborghini Temerario is a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 engine, featuring a hot-vee setup. The placement of the turbos within the V-shaped configuration of the cylinder banks optimizes performance. On its own, this V-8 engine can produce 789 horsepower between 9000 and 9750 rpm, delivering 538 pound-feet of torque between 4000 and 7000 rpm. It has the capability to rev up to an impressive 10,000 rpm, and the turbos can achieve a maximum boost pressure of 36.3 psi. The engine is equipped with a flat-plane crankshaft and titanium con rods, designed to reduce rotating mass, and the use of materials in the engine is a testament to the lessons learned from motorsport.
The V-8’s power is channeled through an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, which is mounted transversely behind the engine. Lamborghini claims to have reduced weight by incorporating an extra hollow shaft, allowing the same synchronizers to be used across various gear torque paths. This design results in a lighter gearbox than the seven-speed dual-clutch unit found in the Huracán, yet it still manages to execute shifts more quickly.
By adding three electric motors, the Lamborghini Temerario’s total power output increases to 907 horsepower. Each electric motor can generate up to 148 horsepower, with two oil-cooled axial flow motors driving the front axle, enabling the Temerario to achieve all-wheel drive capability when necessary. Lamborghini boasts that the entire front axle system is lightweight, weighing just 161 pounds, and that the front motors are capable of driving the Temerario in full electric mode. The company claims that its new supercar achieves 50% lower carbon dioxide emissions compared to the Huracán.
The third electric motor is strategically placed between the V-8 engine and the gearbox, serving as a “torque gap filler” to enhance gear shifts, mitigate turbo lag, and boost responsiveness during acceleration from a standstill. Additionally, this electric motor functions as a starter motor and a three-phase generator.
Lamborghini boasts that the Temerario can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in just 2.7 seconds, setting the stage for a top speed of 213 mph. The front-mounted electric motors enable precise torque vectoring, enhancing the Temerario’s agility in tight corners and stability during high-speed turns. This torque vectoring system primarily depends on the electric motors, adjusting the braking force only when needed, according to Lamborghini. This approach is designed to offer a more natural driving experience.
