Two oil-cooled axial flow electric motors with a total peak output of 220 kW and up to 2,150 Nm of torque (the continuous output is 60 kW) drive the front axle when required to achieve all-wheel drive. The electric front axle weighs just 73 kilograms, and each electric motor only 15.5 kilograms.

A major challenge was the design of the powertrain to be as compact as possible. To achieve this, the engineers integrated the electric motor into the housing of the V8 biturbo, directly, without an intermediate clutch. This fills any turbo lag, no matter how small, at any speed delivering 300 Nm of torque. The entire electric drive unit is located compactly between the combustion engine and the dual clutch transmission. This electric motor also works as a starter motor and three-phase generator.

Furthermore, the two electric motors on the front axle also improve the power output and can transform the new Temerario into a fully electric super sports car. In this way, Lamborghini reduces CO2 emissions by up to 50 percent compared to the Huracán.

The Lamborghini Temerario is equipped with a lithium-ion high specific power (4500 W/kg) battery pack situated within the central tunnel, keeping the car’s center of gravity as low as possible and ensuring optimal weight distribution. The battery is protected by a lower structural layer and is connected to the front electric motors, the rear electric motor, and an integrated recharging unit.

The battery pack is 1550 mm long, 301 mm high, and 240 mm wide, containing pouch cells with an overall capacity of 3.8 kWh. When the charge drops down to zero it can be recharged using both ordinary domestic alternating and charging column current up to 7 kW in power, and completely recharges in just 30 minutes. It can also be recharged under regenerative braking from the front wheels or directly from the V8 engine.

Thanks to the e-axle, the Temerario incorporates Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo (LDV) 2.0 system. Electric torque vectoring increases the car’s agility in narrow cornering as well as its stability in high-speed cornering, distributing torque optimally to each wheel.  Unlike conventional systems, the new torque vectoring intervenes on the brakes only when strictly necessary, to maximize efficiency and ensure a more natural driving style as well as an even higher level of performance. When braking, the e-axle and rear electric motor contribute to deceleration, reducing stress on the brakes while recharging the battery.

The gears of the second Lamborghini super sports car in the High-Performance Electrified Vehicle (HPEV) category are shifted by an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) installed transversally behind the V8. The newly-designed compact transmission meets all the requirements of such a powerful drive unit.

To save installation space and weight, the layout is not a standard DTC. An additional hollow shaft is used to share the same synchronizers for different gear torque paths. Without electrical components, the new DCT weighs less than the Huracán's seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and achieves faster shift times. At 560 millimeters long, 750 millimeters wide and just 580 millimeters high, the new DCT also remains extremely compact.

Lamborghini has installed the new eight-speed dual-clutch transmission behind the V8 biturbo. This creates sufficient space in the center tunnel for the lithium-ion battery that powers the electric motors. Another advantage is that this technical layout optimizes the weight distribution of the Temerario and ensures a compact wheelbase for ideal driving dynamics and balanced handling.

With the new eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, drivers experience extremely fast shift times even with a very sporty driving style and daily driving. Continuous downshifts in particular are easy: when braking and simultaneously pressing and holding the left shift paddle the transmission shifts down gears sequentially, allowing the driver to feel and hear the gear change. The long ratio eighth gear reduces the engine speed, which helps to optimize fuel consumption and improves drivability at cruising speed. The Temerario gearbox has been equipped with a mechanical reverse gear system.

Brave, unexpected and authentically a Lamborghini: with the Temerario Lamborghini Centro Stile has created a new and inimitable super sports car that opens a fresh chapter in Lamborghini design DNA.  following a new styling with its own essential and iconic identity. The new design creates its own essential and iconic identity.

“The Lamborghini Temerario marksdefinitivelya new milestone in our design language.We call it “essential and iconic” with enhanced athleticism from its surfaces. Fromthe first glance, this is a puristic, futuristic and yet fascinating super sports car, with its compact and agile proportions, the new hexagonal light signature, the ‘Feel like a pilot’ interior design and its sharp lines emphasizing the new hybrid powertrain and itsfun-to-drive dynamics. We provide a clear view of the new V8 biturboengine:theemotionalheart of the carand an innovativesource of power,” says Mitja Borkert, Director of Design at Automobili Lamborghini.

The new car’s design points towards the future of Lamborghini's legendary mid-engine sports cars, while the shapes of the car stay pure, athletic and well-defined. With a clean-sheet design and new drive concept, the Temerario carries a connection to its legendary predecessors while its all-new persona is characterized by reduction, clarity, sharpness and recognizability. “We have created an elevated stylistic experience with the Temerario: we started from scratch to combine design and dynamism into compact proportions, testifying that this is a true Lamborghini super sports car designed for everyday driving pleasure and track-driving fun,” explains Borkert.

From first glance, the Temerario reveals Lamborghini DNA in its typical Lamborghini silhouette: clear and puristic lines, short and compact overhangs, integrated aerodynamics and a bold shark nose.

The Lamborghini design language has evolved to create a new hexagonal Daytime Running Light (DRL) signature, rendering it strongly recognizable and identifiable from far away. The hexagon concept can be found as the main design theme throughout the car: on the main bodywork, the side air intakes, the taillights and in the remarkable hexagonal exhaust pipe.  “This unique hexagonal light signature ensures a high recognition value within the Lamborghini range, and is also a clearly identifiable in the distance,” emphasizes Borkert. The geometric hexagon paradigm has been one of Lamborghini's most recognizable symbols since the 1960s.

The hexagonal daytime running lights, which incorporate an air tunnel, are part of the design philosophy of incorporating lights within the aerodynamic concept. Furthermore, air channels positioned below the headlights improve the aero performance and cooling of the front high-performance braking system for better efficiency.

The Temerario’s designers combine elements from aviation with a visceral muscularity that starts at the front. The design is characterized by well-formed athletic surfaces and a cabin that tapers towards the hexagonal tailpipes. The tip of the hood dominates the entire front end in a strong and striking shark's nose design: a symbol of bravery and speed. The sharp, elegant headlights are slightly overlapped by the hood, drawing inspiration from the sports motorcycle world. Air-guiding slats connect the low front spoiler with the hood, while fins on the sides direct the airflow along the flanks. Sharply shaped side skirts support the aerodynamics and increase downforce at the same time.

With a broad shoulder and long, powerful muscularity, the side stretches from the front over the door, emphasizing the extreme sportiness of the Temerario. The powerful and efficient air intakes behind the side doors ensure the necessary airflow for the V8 biturbo’s performance and at the same time, visually enhance the chassis’ downforce. A fixed rear spoiler emphasizes the car’s rear width. The compact yet technical rear end incorporates details from motorsport, such as the wide diffuser that extends under the vehicle and the integrated exhaust tailpipes. The rear lights feature the new hexagonal design, also allowing air to pass through for engine cooling.

The roof is also functional in terms of aerodynamics. A slightly rearward offset profile directs the air directly onto the integrated rear wing. The designers almost invisibly integrated air inlets behind the passenger compartment above the sculpted shoulder: a highly functional component that helps supply the engine, radiator and turbocharger with sufficient air.

The heart of the Temerario is the new 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine with an integrated axial flux electric motor. In realizing the new powertrain concept, designers and engineers developed a new chassis and body: the Centro Stile Lamborghini had the greatest possible freedom to present the drive system in a visually appropriate way to emphasize a true mid-engine feeling. Lamborghini presents the V8 biturbo openly, like a motorcycle’s engine under a transparent hood.

“With the clean yet exciting styling of the Temerario, we give a new shape to the essential and iconic Lamborghini design language, and take a huge step towards the future,” says Borkert. “The Temerario combines style and performance to perfection, presenting an unprecedented convergence of design, engineering and driver experience in a new model.”

“Lamborghini’s‘Feel like a pilot’ philosophy comes to lifein a new wayin the Temerario,througha low seat position; the slim and lightweight dashboard; and a perfect inclination of the steering wheelallowing the driverto feel part of the typic fun-to-drive approach of Lamborghini. The combination of digital screens and mechanical and physical buttons such as the iconic start button or the racing car inspired steering wheel, results in the unique experience of ‘pilot interaction’,”explains Borkert. “New, electrically adjustable and comfortable sports seats are standard, or optional carbon fiber double-shell sports seats encompass the passengers within the vehicle like a perfectly fitting glove, ergonomically surrounding them with the cockpit and center console unit”. The seats are available in many different colors and four different stitching patterns. No other Lamborghini seat currently offers such a wide range of options as the newly-developed comfort seat in the Temerario: the 18-way adjustable comfort seat is heated and ventilated.

The interior mirrors the extraordinary exterior design, creating a balance between digital and physical experiences. Lamborghini uses best-quality materials such as carbon, leather and Corsatex by Dinamica suede throughout the interior, combining them to create a high-quality interior experience with a special feel. Many interior elements can also be ordered in carbon fiber as an option, including parts of the center console, air vents, door panels, parts of the dashboard, steering wheel and steering column. In addition to the elegant lightweight materials, customers can find classical Lamborghini elements such as the Start/Stop “Power button” inspired by aviation; e-gear lever; and red ‘line-up’ indicator on the steering wheel to emphasize the extreme sportiness of the Temerario.

Following the “Feel like a pilot” philosophy, thanks to the new generation dashboard, the pilot and co-pilot quickly become one with the car. Clear and intuitive to operate, the pilot can reach all the controls from their perfect seat position. Iconic hexagonal air vents are elegantly integrated into the cockpit, and the center console has space for a smartphone and wallet.

The newly-developed steering wheel with optional carbon elements takes inspiration from the racing world, and allows the driver to control the main driving functions. On the left-hand side of the steering wheel is the red-crowned rotor, which is used to select driving modes. Below this are buttons for the lift function to raise the vehicle; the ‘race start’ button; and between them the switches for the indicators. The driver can operate Launch Control with a simple touch of a button, for maximum control.

The new and modern graphic concept continues in the interior. Iconic elements are distributed inside the car including on the center tunnel, touchscreen tiles, and around ventilation openings and seams. “The hexagonal graphics, the choice of materials and the fresh, digital graphics make the interior of the Temerario very sophisticated and emotive,” says Borkert. For the first time, the co-pilot has their own slim and informative display, which they can use to call up driving information and vehicle functions. Pilots operate the instruments important for driving in analog form, while those for the entertainment system and navigation are operated by touch via the display in the center console. The “Pilot Interaction” concept actively involves the driver even more closely in the operation of the Temerario, providing perfect control in driving.

The new Human-Machine Interface (HMI) “Pilot Interaction” serves as the information center of the Temerario. Lamborghini developed the new graphics and design exclusively for the Temerario, evolving the new graphic design DNA started in the Revuelto. A new 8.4-inch display mounted on the center console gives the option to swipe and individualize the themes. The pilot and copilot can use it to slide apps and information left and right from the central display to the driver’s and co-pilot’s screens, just like a smartphone.  While the driver receives information on the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, the data for the front passenger is shown simultaneously on a 9.1-inch screen in front of them. If the pilot changes the driving mode, the display graphics change to match the drive.

Compared to the Huracán, the interior of the Temerario has been completely redesigned, while at the same time further developing the design language first seen on the Revuelto. Thanks to the new spaceframe chassis, the Temerario offers significantly more interior space than its predecessor. A low and ergonomic seating position offers the pilot and co-pilot a perfect connection and integration with the vehicle while at the same time providing a high level of comfort, true to the Lamborghini philosophy of “Feel like a pilot”.

The new spaceframe chassis concept increases headroom by 34 mm and legroom by 46 mm, plus a 4.8° increase in visibility and accommodates passengers up to 200 cm tall, even when wearing a helmet. This means that even the tallest drivers wearing a helmet can comfortably complete their laps on a racetrack. There is room for items such as sports equipment in the load compartment under the front hood with 112 liters of stowage volume available equivalent to two cabin trolleys. Other everyday items can be stowed behind the seats.

“Offering customers the greatest possible comfort was one of the first objectives we set ourselves,” said Paolo Racchetti, Director of Model Line Temerario. “Our super sports cars are driven and enjoyed by customers in the city and on long journeys: improving habitability while keeping the dimensions and proportions of the car as compact as possible was an important challenge during its development. Temerario is an absolutely versatile super sports car, ready to give its all on the track or to be the perfect travel companion during a long weekend."
