2025 Lamborghini Temerario Is 907-HP Hybrid Supercar—with Extra Pounds

• The Lamborghini Temerario made its debut during Monterey Car Week, in conjunction with the 2024 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.
  

• Powering the Temerario is a turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 that works with a hybrid system.

• Lamborghini claims this all-wheel-drive Temerario can sprint to 62 mph in only 2.7 seconds.

The Huracán might be dead, but Lamborghini doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon. Meet the Temerario, which means “reckless” in Italian. This latest addition to the Lamborghini portfolio made its formal debut ahead of the 2024 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance during the Monterey Car Week celebration.

We’ve already talked about the beating heart of the Temerario, which you can read about here. It's worth noting that the Huracán 5.2-liter V10 won’t make an appearance in the Temerario. No, this new Lambo opts for a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8. While it’s down on cylinders, this V8 should still give your ears a gift with its 10,000-rpm redline. Mated to this mid-mounted V8 is an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Working with that V8 is an array of three electric motors: two feeding the front axle and one sandwiched between the engine and transmission. Feeding these electric motors is a 3.8-kWh battery pack. Don’t worry, there’s a Recharge mode to quickly stuff electrons back into that small battery pack and give you more electric oomph. Considering the motor and engine layout, it makes sense why Lamborghini calls this system e-4WD.

All in all, this system is good for 907 hp and can rocket to a 213-mph top speed. Lamborghini claims this new machine can sprint to 62 mph in 2.7 seconds. For reference, that’s 0.3 seconds quicker to 62 mph than the top-flight Huracán STO. This Temerario also boasts a higher top speed than its spiritual predecessor.

Wrapping this powertrain is a new shell on top of an aluminum spaceframe chassis that blends hydroformed extrusions with high-pressure castings to shave weight while adding torsion strength. Lamborghini says this new chassis is 20% stiffer than the Huracán’s, and the automaker is offering over 400 colors and special liveries, which should mean your new Lambo won’t look like your neighbor’s.

Inside, Lamborghini wants to give its passengers an experience that makes them “feel like pilots.” This interior packs electronically adjustable sport seats as standard equipment, but double-shell, carbon-fiber buckets are available as an option. The standard seats are adjustable 18 ways and are heated and ventilated.

Like practically every other car on the market, Lamborghini revamped its screen array. In the center of the dash, you’ll find an 8.4-inch media touchscreen, which is flanked by a 12.3-inch digital driver display and a 9.1-inch screen ahead of the passenger.

Almost as important as the seats and tech, Lamborghini says the Temerario has more headroom and legroom than the Huracán. This extra headroom might not seem like a big deal until you’re throwing on a helmet before taking your Lamborghini out to the track.

Taking advantage of this new shell, the folks at Lamborghini cranked up the focus on its aero package. According to Lamborghini, the Temerario throws 103% more downforce to the rear than the Huracán EVO, which cranks up to 158% when your Temerario is equipped with the Alleggerita package.

The add-ons include a new splitter and underbody panels made from carbon-fiber-reinforced polymers. Even without this special package, the Temerario has 70% more surface area under its body moving the air, with three vortex generators, the Italian brand says.

Compared to the Huracán, the Temerario is longer at 185.28 inches overall, wider (at 78.58 inches without mirrors), and taller (at 47.28 inches). The most surprising shift is the extra length, with nearly 10 inches added. The Temerario’s wheelbase is longer, too, and now spans 104.65 inches. There’s also the downside of a hybrid system: the Temerario’s 3,725.8-pound dry weight is 591.8 pounds heavier than the Huracán.

All of this rides on a set of 20-inch-front and 21-inch-rear wheels, which are wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza Sport rubber. Of course, it wouldn’t be an all-weather machine if Bridgestone didn’t also offer a special set of Blizzak winter tires for this new Lambo. There’s also a set of Potenza Race tires available if you need some extra grip on the track.

Bringing this machine to a halt is a set of large carbon-ceramic rotors: 16.14-inch front and 15.35-inch rear. Those rotors are clamped by 10-piston front monoblock calipers with four-piston calipers clamping down on the rear.

Despite the added heft, and the longer shell, the Temerario’s V8 should still make up for the growing platform. There’s no word on price, or when you can expect to see one at your local Lamborghini dealer, but it wouldn’t be a huge surprise if these started trickling onto the road early in 2025.

As for the price, the age-old saying might ring true: if you have to ask, you can’t afford it. That said, this should be more expensive than the outgoing Huracán, which started in the low $200,000 range.
