Lamborghini Temerario: authentic “Fuoriclasse”
The new super sports car is in a league of its own: a 920 CV twin-turbo
V8 hybrid powertrain
offering the highest levels of performance and comfort for a peerless driving
experience
Sant'Agata Bolognese/Monterey, California, 16 August 2024 – Automobili
Lamborghini presents Temerario1
,
the all-new super sports car equipped with a twin-turbo V8 hybrid powertrain
that redefines the very
concepts of performance, driving pleasure and comfort. The Temerario is
the second model in the
Lamborghini High Performance Electrified Vehicle (HPEV) range, after the
Revuelto2
, and completes the
hybridization of Sant’Agata Bolognese's line-up following the market
debut of the Urus SE3
.
A star of Monterey Car Week 2024, the Temerario presents itself as the new
benchmark in the super sports
car segment, thanks to class-beating performance. The new hybrid powertrain
combines an entirely new
twin-turbo V8 engine with three electric motors, providing a total power
output of 920 CV. The twin-turbo
V8 has been designed and developed from scratch in Sant’Agata Bolognese
and is the first and only
production super sports car engine able to reach 10,000 rpm. The performance
is an absolute revelation:
maximum speed of over 340 km/h (210+ mph), 0 to 100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just
2.7 seconds.
“The Temerario is a genuine ‘fuoriclasse’: a car in a
league of its own, an extraordinary and innovative vehicle
both from a technical and stylistic point of view,” says Stephan Winkelmann,
Chairman and CEO of Automobili
Lamborghini. “Every new Lamborghini must surpass its forerunners in
performance terms, while at the same
time being more sustainable from an emissions standpoint. With the Temerario,
we have completed a key
chapter in the electrification strategy included in our Direzione Cor Tauri
plan: we also become the first luxury
automotive brand to offer a completely hybridized range.”
With the Temerario Lamborghini has also achieved new heights in terms of
aerodynamic efficiency, combined
with stylistic details and lines that represent a further landmark in the
brand's design. Also entirely new is
the aluminum chassis which, thanks to the use of a cutting-edge high-strength,
ultra-light alloy, significantly
increases torsional rigidity and contributes to excellent driving dynamics.
The chassis delivers excellent passenger comfort and increased roominess:
the Temerario is a super sports
car that expresses its full potential on the track while offering more space
for passengers and luggage than
any other vehicle in its segment.

The Temerario also delivers the most advanced multimedia experience in Lamborghini
history, thanks to the
introduction of the Lamborghini Vision Unit system, which provides access
to new functions and applications
that allow users to relive and share their track and road driving experiences.
POWERTRAIN
The heart of a Lamborghini has always been its drive system. With the new
Temerario, Lamborghini takes an
entirely new approach, with several years of development, delivering an
unprecedented super sports car
powertrain, comprised of an extremely high-revving biturbo Internal Combustion
Engine concept combined
with three electric motors. “We wanted to develop an incomparable,
high-performance sports engine that
combines the best of two worlds: an emotional combustion engine based on
a twin-turbocharged V8 and a
performance-oriented electrification. Our concept of incorporating three
electric motors with a combustion
engine ensures to achieve instantaneous acceleration, torque vectoring and
energy recuperation. With the
Temerario we are redefining the segment,” says Rouven Mohr, Chief
Technical Officer at Lamborghini.
“Temerario is in a league of its own, in terms of engineering solutions
and performance.”
The new powertrain is integral to the second super sports car in Lamborghini's
High-Performance Electrified
Vehicle (HPEV) product range. The first target was to achieve the highest
possible power and torque, while
at the same time offering the response of a classic high-revving naturally
aspirated engine. Therefore, only
high-performance components are used in the drivetrain: the new 4.0-liter
V8 biturbo engine has a specific
output of 200 CV per liter and works together with an oil-cooled axial flow
electric motor fully integrated in
the V8 housing. Propulsion is supported by two electric motors on the front
axle.
“By combining a high-revving V8 biturbo with three electric motors
of axial flux type we are taking a very
sophisticated approach that has never been seen before in series production
and the result will impress
Lamborghini fans all over the world - With this adrenaline-machine, we are
catapulting ourselves into a new
paradigm for super sports cars,” continues Mohr. This linearity and
progression, with high revving
characteristics, which was previously only possible with naturally aspirated
engines, now offers high torque
with high engine speeds, thanks to the turbochargers.
The new engine with the internal designation L411 is now one of the most
powerful engines in the segment.
The V8 biturbo delivers its peak power of 800 CV from 9,000 to 9,750 rpm
and 730 Nm of torque between
4,000 and 7,000 rpm. The electric motor, in P1 position (between the V8
engine and the gearbox), ensures
immediate response starting from low engine speed and continues consistently
through gear shifts, working
as a “torque gap filler” and improving the transient response,
giving the sensation of linear and limitless
progression up to 10,000 revs. Thanks to the two large turbochargers, efficiency
and performance are
increased at top speeds. These are located compactly in the V of the engine
as a “hot V8” to optimize the
packaging and thermal management. The V8 biturbo can rev up to 10,000 revolutions
per minute: the
maximum boost pressure of the turbochargers is 2.5 bar (abs). The turbines
are controlled with an electrical
wastegate and a wheel-speed sensor. Lamborghini has designed air filter
boxes with tubular cartridges,
making them extremely compact to create space and become even more efficient.
Media Information
At the heart of the crankshaft housing is a flat-plane crankshaft with a
180-degree angle between the
crankshaft bends. This crankshaft, which is typically used in racing engines,
ensures optimal fluidodynamic
behavior due to even firing orders in comparison to the cross-plane crankshaft,
and a unique engaging sound.
Titanium conrods reduce the rotating masses and offer excellent material
properties in terms of strength and
lightness, reducing weight. The engine casting material consists of A357+Cu,
the same used in motorsport
applications.
The particularly robust and reliable finger followers covered in DLC (Diamond
Like Carbon) can withstand
speeds of up to 11,000 revolutions per minute - a range previously reserved
for racing engines in motorsport.
This is also where the engineers drew their inspiration for the engine layout
concept. As is usual in
motorsport, most of the auxiliary units are located on one side, including
the two water pumps for the
intercooler and engine cooling, as well the electronically-controlled barrel
valve for fine temperature control.
The oil and water pumps, which are arranged in series on the right-hand
side of the engine, are driven up to
a specific ratio pump speed of 7,800 rpm. The engineers integrated the oil
tank in one side of the engine that
works according to the dry sump principle with five-stage gear scavenge
pumps. As a result, the drive unit is
flat and sits low in the Temerario lowering the center of gravity of the
vehicle, while improving its handling
characteristics. A newly designed water-cooling system ensures a balanced
temperature regime. The internal
cooling of the cylinder heads has been extremely refined using 3D printing
technology for the casting core,
allowing a uniform cooling of the combustion chamber and high knock resistance.
The direct petrol injection
atomizes the fuel extremely finely into the eight combustion chambers at
up to 350 bar, thus ensuring fast
and clean combustion.
The characteristics of a smoothly revving, naturally aspirated engine, with
the power delivery of a turbo
engine in combination with electric drives, is unique in the way it works
and sounds. Lamborghini has thus
succeeded in developing a new V8 biturbo that combines the pronounced linearity
of the rev development
in the previous Lamborghini naturally aspirated V10, with enormous power
and torque of a modern turbo
engine. In conjunction with the three electric motors, the system output
is an outstanding 920 CV / 676 kW.
Engine Sound
Lamborghini has invested significant technical effort in the development
of a unique and unmistakable audio
experience from the Temerario’s completely new drive system. Ensuring
a highly emotive and unmistakably
Lamborghini sound and sensation feedback.
"With the V8 biturbo, the amplitude and frequency of the sound increase
as the engine speed rises, and thanks
to the flat-plane crankshaft, subtle vibrations underline the power of the
drive depending on the engine speed.
For the occupants, the ride in the Temerario is an incredible experience
for all the senses. Drivers will be roused
by the powerful Lamborghini sound and will feel its unmistakable character
with all senses," says Mohr.
Media Information
The technical complexity of this special soundscape is immense. To ensure
that the crescendo up to 10,000
rpm provides an emotional, sporty sound, Lamborghini integrates various
technical measures and enriches
them with high-frequency modulation effects.
A special connection between the engine banks enhances the sound effect
of the power unit subject to the
engine speed. Depending on the driving mode, the silencer box and exhaust
valve of the V8 biturbo work in
the low rev range to improve acoustic comfort. At the same time, the different
driving modes are clearly
differentiated through acoustic tuning.
An exhaust system routed from the manifold to the tailpipes also acoustically
emphasizes the combustion
processes of the engine. Lamborghini guarantees a clear and clean sound
thanks to the smoothed pipe
routing. The height and position along the transverse axis of the exhaust
tailpipes further focuses the
sharpness of the engine with a high frequency component, thus emphasizing
its power.
In addition, Lamborghini has designed the engine mounts and body in such
a way that the drive has a flat
crankshaft character that can be felt by the driver at high engine speeds
and under full load. Thanks to the
flat-plane crankshaft, in which the crank pins are at an angle of 180 degrees,
the V8 biturbo produces subtle
vibrations.
Lamborghini makes the amplitude of these vibrations more pronounced at high
engine speeds, which
enhances the overall impression of speed and power at high revs. The sound
engineers also manage to
transport the pleasantly sporty acoustics into the interior and at the same
time emphasize the desired
frequencies by means of lightweight body parts and panels. The light vibrations
transmitted to the frame
provide a comprehensive sensory experience, in addition to the thrilling
soundtrack. As the engine speed
increases, the seat vibrations intensify, especially at higher engine speeds
of up to 10,000 rpm: a speed range
previously only known from motorsport.
Furthermore, an additional sound symposer emits acoustic waves into the
interior, creating an immersive
auditory experience in every driving mode.
Lamborghini has also designed a completely different soundscape for the
different driving modes Città,
Strada, Sport and Corsa. In Città mode, Lamborghini offers a high
level of comfort with a special sound from
the electric drive unit. The composition achieves a smooth and pleasant
listening experience in urban
environments. In Città mode, the Temerario is emission-free and quiet.
In Strada mode, for country roads and fast autoroutes, occupants enjoy a
comfortable and homogeneous V8
biturbo sound experience with evenly distributed frequencies, without any
barking or sharp peaks for sporty
yet discreet driving pleasure. In Sport and Corsa modes, Lamborghini amplifies
the second- and fourth-order
overtones of a V8 four-stroke engine and air-intake harmonics, creating
an exhilarating and powerful
listening experience. At speeds of up to 10,000 rpm, the engine not only
delivers incredible power of up to
920 CV, but also an inimitable sound - a new Lamborghini sound of a new
generation.
Media Information
Three electric motors for support
The new drivetrain incorporates three electric motors. With 110 kW of power
each, the electric motors are
an integral part of the powertrain strategy. 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.
Battery
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.
Dual-clutch transmission
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.
Media Information
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.
DESIGN
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 marks definitively a new milestone in our
design language. We call it “essential
and iconic” with enhanced athleticism from its surfaces. From the
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 its fun-todrive dynamics. We provide
a clear view of the new V8 biturbo engine: the emotional heart of the car
and an
innovative source 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.
Exteriors
Media Information
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.
Media Information
“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.”
Interiors: “Feel like a pilot”
“Lamborghini’s ‘Feel like a pilot’ philosophy comes
to life in a new way in the Temerario, through a low seat
position; the slim and lightweight dashboard; and a perfect inclination
of the steering wheel allowing the
driver to 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.
PILOT INTERACTION
Media Information
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.
More space and room for everyday life
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."
Personalization and ‘Alleggerita’ Package
Media Information
The Temerario is launched with two new dedicated colors, Blu Marinus (blue)
and Verde Mercurius (green).
Over 400 body colors and special liveries will be available offering clients
almost infinite customization
possibilities through Lamborghini’s Ad Personam program. The new rims,
20” at the front and 21” at the
rear, are available in three different designs and materials: cast rims
(three colors), forged (four colors) and
carbon. A wide range of carbon fiber elements for exteriors and interiors
is offered: front splitter, mirror
caps, side upper vents, rear diffuser; central tunnel, instrument cluster,
air vents, door switch frame, steering
wheel in carbon, steering column cover and gearshift.
For the first time a Lamborghini debuts on the market, it will be available
with the ‘Alleggerita’ (lightweight)
package for customers more oriented towards track driving. It reduces the
car’s weight by 12.65 kg through
body components alone, with a reduction of over 25 kg when incorporating
lightweight interior elements,
carbon rims and titanium muffler, and is even more efficient from an aerodynamic
point of view (+67%
aerodynamic load).
The Alleggerita pack includes a splitter made of CFRP (Carbon fiber reinforced
polymers) (-0.19 kg) and
recycled carbon fiber underbody panels (-0.55 kg): a further step in Lamborghini’s
commitment to
sustainability. New side skirts in CFRP deliver a further 0.6 kg of weight
saving, as do the rear bonnet (-9.2
kg) and the panel where the high-load spoiler is integrated (-1.6 kg).
Inside, the Lightweight Pack incorporates carbon fiber door panels and passenger
footrest to offer a driving
experience inspired by the world of competition. Window weights are also
reduced: the rear window in
lightweight glass saves 0.85 kg, while the fixed side windows are in polycarbonate
(-0.45 kg).
An alternative Carbon Pack is also available, which includes a rear diffuser,
rear-view mirror caps and carbon
side air intake covers, helping to reduce the weight by a further 1.82 kg.
AERODYNAMICS
With the Temerario, Lamborghini has achieved the peak of aerodynamic efficiency
through the attainment
of three primary design goals: stability at high speeds; increased cooling
performance; and maximum braking
efficiency.
Lamborghini's designers and engineers took into account the new hybrid powertrain
and the increased
aerodynamic load targets, particularly at the rear, when developing the
bodywork and underbody of the
Temerario: the result is +103% rear downforce compared to the Huracán
EVO, increasing to +158% if the car
is equipped with the Alleggerita Pack.
Each individual element was designed to contribute to excellent aerodynamic
performance. Starting with the
front, where the DRLs have become aerodynamic elements, the hexagonal lights
with dedicated air intakes
and deflectors have the task of conveying airflow from the bumper to the
upper part of the side radiators,
and the two fins have been installed on the inlets. The upper fin with a
wing-shaped profile diverts the flow
Media Information
downwards, which is captured by the second horizontal fin, directing it
to enter the radiator perpendicularly
and maximizing cooling efficiency.
Moreover, the fins which make up the grilles on the wheel arches convey
the flow to the outside of the wheel,
moving it away from the side radiator and minimizing its slipstream, with
the dual effect of reducing
aerodynamic resistance and moving the downforce towards the rear.
The wing mirrors, working in unison with the front of the vehicle, have
the goal of not only minimizing drag,
but also directing the air towards the side radiators, increasing the cooling
capacity of the mechanical
components.
The roof design with a central channel directs air towards the rear spoiler,
integrated in the vehicle body and
thus improving the aerodynamic efficiency and increasing downforce. The
curved sides of the engine hood
also contribute to this result, increasing the portion of air which flows
through the side part of the spoiler.
The optional Alleggerita package features a high-load lightweight rear spoiler,
obtained by increasing the
height of the trailing edge with consequent increase in curvature.
The underside of the vehicle also plays a structural role in terms of aerodynamic
efficiency. The underbody
is equipped with vortex generators: three pairs of fins arranged like the
branches of a tree increase the rear
aerodynamic load, assisting the action of the diffuser which, thanks to
a 70% greater surface area compared
to the Huracán EVO and an angle increased by 4°, maximizes the
vertical extraction of the air flow from the
bottom. The increased cooling demand dictated by the new turbo-hybrid powertrain
has necessitated the
development of a new radiator layout, providing a 30% improvement in cooling
performance.
Moreover, to maximize the Temerario’s exceptional performance, a new
brake cooling concept has been
developed to optimize vehicle braking. The front section incorporates a
deflector fastened to the lower
suspension arm which exploits the flow diverted by the front diffuser and
directs it towards the front brake
caliper, helping to cool it. Another two specific inlets have been incorporated
into the bumper to convey a
high air flow from the bumper itself towards the disc ventilation channels;
then a wye duct – with dual inlet
but a single outlet – draws in air at high pressure, helping to improve
the brake system cooling. The overall
result is a total improvement in cooling performance over the Huracán
EVO of 20% for the discs and 50% for
the calipers.
The rear incorporates a solution already successfully tested on the Revuelto.
The ventilation channels of the
rear discs are fed via a NACA duct positioned in the front part of the rear
wheel housing, which collects the
high-energy flow of the underbody and directs it towards the brake cooling
duct.
SPACEFRAME
The structural assembly of the Temerario sees the new Body-in-White constructed
with a multi-technology
aluminum spaceframe approach to withstand the higher loads deriving from
the new hybrid power unit. This
guarantees excellent mechanical qualities together with remarkable efficiency
in weight reductions.
Media Information
Made entirely of aluminum, the frame of the Temerario debuts a new high-strength
alloy for high-pressure
castings; the use of high-strength hydroformed extrusions; and an increase
in the number of hollow castings
with thin closed inertia sections, achieved through the use of internal
cores. These technologies allowed the
constructional complexity of the spaceframe to be minimized and weight to
be optimized, while at the same
time the new hybrid powertrain adopts over 50% fewer components compared
to the same parameters on
the Huracán. In addition, the Temerario incorporates a significant
reduction in the number of heat welds:
over 80% less total weld bead length compared to the Huracán.
The new construction archetype delivered increases in torsional stiffness
of over 20% to be achieved
compared to the previous generation spaceframe, as well as offering the
best possible vehicle weight
limitation, ensuring the highest level of occupant safety and making a significant
contribution to the vehicle's
excellent driving dynamics.
DRIVING EXPERIENCE
Temerario offers 13 driving experiences that make the super sports car versatile
and capable of exciting both
in daily driving and on the curbs of a circuit. The drive modes can be selected
via the rotors on the steering
wheel: the upper left red-crowned rotor allows the driver to choose between
Città, Strada, Sport, Corsa and
Corsa Plus (ESC Off - electronic controls deactivated); furthermore, by
pressing the "checkered flag" button
for two seconds, Launch Control is activated to exploit the maximum potential
when starting from a standing
start.
“Temerario offers an innovative and emotional driving experience at
the same time. The e-4WD system
including real torque vectoring is a perfect combination,” comments
Mohr. “On the one hand we have a car
that is absolutely precise and effective on the track, on the other we have
a more typically rear-wheel drive
character, oriented towards maximum involvement for the driver."
Together with the hybrid system, three new dedicated driving modes also
debut: Recharge, Hybrid and
Performance, selectable via the upper right rotor. The choice of driving
mode is displayed on the driver’s
12.3-inch digital dashboard, where the animated graphics replicate the rotation
of the selectors to make the
selection immediately intuitive.
Città is the experience designed for driving in urban areas, which
can be used both in Hybrid mode (fully
electric with a maximum power of 140 kW – 190 CV) and in Recharge
mode, to allow the V8 to quickly
recharge the battery if necessary. Strada is ideal for extra-urban routes
and long autoroute journeys, for
efficient and sporty driving, with all-wheel drive that activates on demand.
The V8 engine always supports
electric motors, with maximum power of 800 CV delivered by the powertrain
in Hybrid mode, while in
Recharge mode the maximum power output is 725 CV. The front e-axle supports
torque vectoring and the
active aerodynamics work to offer maximum stability at high speeds, for
example on the motorway.
By selecting Sport, the Temerario changes character and the car's behavior
is set to offer emotive, fun and
responsive driving in each of the three combinable modes: Recharge, Hybrid
and Performance. The
Media Information
combustion engine, assisted by the hybrid system, is active in all three
situations, delivering a maximum of
920 CV of power while the sound of the V8 becomes more present; the gearbox
responds with maximum
responsiveness while the suspension and aerodynamics enhance the agility
of the car and the pleasure of
driving in corners.
The pinnacle of effectiveness and power expressed, both in terms of performance
and sound, is reached with
Corsa, the mode designed to enhance the dynamic capabilities of Temerario
on the track. In Performance,
the powertrain expresses the peak of its potential by delivering 920 CV,
and the control of the hybrid system
is calibrated to get the most out of the e-axle both in terms of torque
vectoring and all-wheel drive, for ultrasporty driving but accessible at
the same time. The sound also reaches maximum emotiveness for an
engaging and exhilarating sound experience.
The Drift Mode option also makes its debut on the Temerario, to help the
driver generate controlled
oversteer and maximize driving fun. Operated via the lower rotor on the
right side of the steering wheel,
Drift Mode is adjustable according to three different levels: from level
one, which facilitates oversteer while
maintaining a limited yaw angle, up to level three dedicated to expert drivers
to allow a wide angle of yaw.
HMI, INFOTAINMENT AND CONNECTIVITY
The new Temerario is the most advanced car in the history of Lamborghini
from a multimedia perspective.
Compared with the Huracán, the connectivity is significantly more
advanced, offering users services and
features related to everyday use of the car, together with others designed
specifically for the fun of driving
on road or on track.
Users can take advantage of a navigation system with over-the-air map updates
and real-time information
on traffic and points of interest. The connectivity suite incorporates entertainment
content including web
radio, voice assistant and wireless smartphone connection via Apple Car
Play and Android Auto. The
Temerario offers a Human Machine Interface (HMI) system which consists of
three displays: the 12.3" digital
instrument panel, the 8.4" central screen and the 9.1" passenger
display. The system features graphics
including 3D, with animations, widgets and a completely new style created
specifically for the car.
Furthermore, the three screens are controlled by a single "electronic
brain" to ensure maximum coherence
of design, interaction and use.
The instrument panel, in addition to having a completely
renewed graphic design, presents new
customization functions that allow users to select three types of views:
"Dynamic view" with vehicle dynamics
information; "Navi view" with full screen map; and "Essential
view” with essential information for driving.
The Infotainment system implements new functions with a wide range of
customization options to create a
truly immersive experience, including the swipe function that allows users
to move contents from the central
monitor to the driver and passenger displays with a gesture of the fingers,
like on a smartphone screen.
Among the customizations available on the central display is the option
of creating a page that manages up
to three applications simultaneously, allowing the driver to easily reach
their ‘favorite’ functions such as
climate control, navigation, radio and much more, minimizing distraction
while driving. Favorite shortcuts to
Media Information
individual applications can also be created, such as the climate control,
telephone contacts, radio and
navigation destinations.
The Temerario also debuts the Lamborghini Vision Unit (LAVU) system, an
option which, via three cameras
and a dedicated control unit, enables three new on-board services: Lamborghini
Telemetry 2.0, Memories
Recorder and Dashcam. The apps are easily accessible through the infotainment
system and steering wheel
controls, as well as via the Lamborghini Unica app.
The LAVU system enhances the authentic "Feel like a pilot”
experience, using telemetry in a way that records
performance on the track to help improve it. It also allows the best driving
moments to be saved using the
Memories Recorder and improves safety via the Dashcam.
The three hi-definition cameras are positioned to frame both the cabin
and the road: the front camera is
positioned on the roof liner and records images from the road or track;
the ‘emotion’ camera, also on the
roof liner, frames the cabin to capture the emotions of the driver and
passenger; while the rear wall camera
is attached to the fireproof shield, behind the seats, and frames the
steering wheel, instrument panel and
windshield.
The Driving Experience section allows users to recall all the experiences
recorded with their car through the
LAVU system, while the Remote Trip Statistics service collects data on
the distance traveled and the use of
the hybrid powertrain after each trip.
The Lamborghini Unica app extends the experience even when the Temerario’s
engine is turned off. Using a
smartphone or Apple Watch users can continuously monitor their car, viewing
information such as the fuel
level, battery charge, range and the exact position in which it is parked.
Furthermore, through the app it is
possible to implement a series of remote-control operations, such as locking
and unlocking the doors.
One of the safety and protection features on the Temerario is the Lamborghini
Connect Vehicle Tracking
System (LCVTS), which proactively detects unauthorized use of the car
and notifies the owner via the app as
well as the Security Operations Center, in order to promptly activate
the necessary procedures. Lamborghini
guarantees the confidentiality and protection of clients’ personal
data right from the vehicle design stage,
applying a ‘privacy and security by design’ approach, maintaining
the highest standards for the whole life
cycle of the product.
Sound
The Temerario Sound System is crafted by Sonus faber, the Italian artisans
of sound hailing from Vicenza,
Italy. This premium system creates an immersive audio environment, characterized
by the renowned natural
sound for which Sonus faber is celebrated. Each component is meticulously
designed and fine-tuned to
ensure a listening experience that mirrors the artistry and precision
synonymous with Italian craftsmanship.
The Temerario’s encompassing cabin and powerful engine are seamlessly
complemented by the Sonus faber
sound system, guaranteeing an emotive and luxurious experience.
Media Information
Lamborghini Telemetry 2.0
Lamborghini Telemetry 2.0 is an onboard app designed for track use aimed
at improving the driver’s
confidence and performance, helping the driver to make the most of the
Temerario’s potential. The graphic
interface and user experience in the car have been completely revamped,
making operation more intuitive
and immediate and with steering wheel controls making it ideal for use
on track.
During track sessions, the course and information about the lap time and
each sector can be viewed on the
dashboard display. It is also possible to select a reference time to get
an immediate report on performance.
Lamborghini Telemetry 2.0 includes over 150 of the world’s most
important circuits (including variants);
compared to the previous version available on the Huracán STO.
In addition, more information is available,
such as tire pressure or where and when the electronic intervention has
kicked in.
Users can also record videos of their experience using the cameras integrated
into the LAVU system:
immediately after the session, the telemetry data and videos can be viewed
directly on the dashboard display
or shared on the Unica app for a more in-depth analysis, even combining
the car data with the user's heart
rate thanks to Apple Watch integration.
The Lamborghini Unica app also features enhanced usability thanks to the
collaboration of Lamborghini
Squadra Corse drivers. Performance analysis is now more user-friendly
through the modular visual display of
the route map, identifying the recorded videos and the data collected
during the session. Images and data
can be shared in a personalized video thanks to a video editor integrated
into the app, allowing the user to
choose between different frames, templates and new overlay widgets.
Memories Recorder
The fun continues off track, where every moment on board the Temerario
can be recorded using the
Memories Recorder. This feature allows drivers to record up to two minutes
of driving using the LAVU system
cameras, and to share the video through the Unica app. The usability and
personalization options of the
Memories Recorder is further improved by the ability to choose the camera
frame; the information to display
on the graphical interface; and the video format.
Dashcam
The LAVU system has also allowed the implementation of the Dashcam app,
designed to improve driving
safety. The three cameras provide an efficient continuous surveillance
system and, in the event of an accident
or emergency maneuver, a one-minute video is automatically recorded. It
is also possible to view up to 40
seconds of images before the moment of impact or a maneuver, and the video
can be viewed both on the
infotainment system and from the Unica app.
