Engine, motors, and battery

Rear view

The all-new flat-plane hot vee 4.0L (3995.2cc) V8 engine (bore-90mm, stroke-78.5mm) produces 730 Nm (538.42 ft-lbs) (4,000 - 7,000 rpm) and 800 PS (789 hp, 588 kW) (9,000 - 9,750 rpm), with a 10,250 rpm redline, making the Temerario the first ever Lamborghini to safely rev past 10,000 rpm. To allow it to rev higher, it has titanium connecting rods, a short stroke, and a flat plane crankshaft. The electric motor between the engine and gearbox has 300 Nm (221.26 ft-lbs) and 110 kW (148 hp, 150 PS) at 3,500 rpm.^[7] There are two other electric motors on the front axle.^[8] The motors make use of axial-flux electric motors that provide a larger magnetic surface for better performance. Combined power output is 907 hp (920 PS, 677 KW).^[9][6] The engine is mechanically unrelated to the 4.0L (3996 cc) hot vee Volkswagen-Audi V8 engine (4.0 TFSI). The Temerario uses the existing 3.8 kWh battery pack from the Lamborghini Revuelto.

Transmission

The Temerario uses an adapted version of the Revuelto’s 8-speed dual-clutch transmission.^[7] The gearbox is transverse and mounted behind the engine.

Motorsport

GT3

Lamborghini is developing a GT3 racing version of the Temerario, built to Group GT3 regulations. This car will see its race debut in 2026, and will replace the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 Evo 2 as Lamborghini's main GT3 racecar. It will be using the same twin-turbo V8 as the street car, but without electric motors, as these are not allowed in GT3 racing.^[12]

Super Trofeo

Lamborghini plans to introduce a Super Trofeo version of the Temerario in 2027, replacing the Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2.^[12]
