The Lamborghini Huracan had a good run, didn’t it? It screamed, it roared, and it looked properly outrageous. But as they say, all good things must come to an end. Enter the Lamborghini Temerario—Lamborghini’s new mid-engined supercar, set to debut in India on April 30, 2025. Positioned just below the larger Revuelto, the Temerario continues Lamborghini’s hybrid journey, being the second plug-in hybrid from Sant’Agata Bolognese.
The Numbers That Matter
You’d be forgiven for mourning the loss of the V10, but the Temerario more than makes up for it with a new powertrain.
-
Engine: 4.0-litre V8 twin-turbo + 3 electric motors
-
Power: 907 bhp and 800 Nm
-
Transmission: 8-speed dual-clutch, 10,000 rpm redline
-
0-100 kmph: 2.7 seconds
-
Top Speed: 340 kmph
-
Battery: 3.8 kWh, charges in 30 minutes
-
Emissions: 50% less CO2 than the Huracan
Point to Ponder: That’s about 40% more power than the Huracan and half a second quicker to 100 kmph. Progress, they call it.
Design: Proper Lambo Drama
Lamborghinis aren’t exactly known for subtlety, are they? The Temerario continues the tradition with a design that is best described as ‘noticeable from space.’
-
Front End: Sleek headlights above hexagon-shaped LED DRLs—because triangles are far too common.
-
Profile: Aerodynamic silhouette with sharp side skirts, finished off with 20-inch alloys at the front and 21-inch at the rear.
-
Rear: Hexagonal tail lights and a centrally mounted rear exhaust—making sure the chap behind you knows exactly what’s making that noise.
Inside
Step inside, and it’s a familiar yet refined affair. Borrowing heavily from the Revuelto, the interior is a blend of carbon fibre, leather, and Corsatex by Dinamica suede. A Lamborghini without some form of jet fighter inspiration would feel incomplete, so naturally, the push start-stop button remains suitably dramatic.
Creature Comforts:
-
Displays: 12.3-inch driver’s screen, 8.4-inch touchscreen (portrait), and 9.1-inch passenger screen.
-
Seats: 18-way adjustable, heated, and ventilated. Also, optional carbon fibre sports seats for those who enjoy a bit of discomfort with their speed.
-
Storage: Room for a phone and wallet—because even a Lambo needs to be practical, apparently.
Competition and Cost
Expect the Temerario to be priced at around ₹6 crore (ex-showroom), competing with the likes of the McLaren 750S and Ferrari 296 GTB.
The Huracan may have been Lamborghini’s golden child in India, but the Temerario is all set to take the spotlight. More power, more speed, and a bit of electric wizardry to keep the emissions folks happy.
And yes, it’s still a Lamborghini, loud and fast!
