Lamborghini Temerario Track Drive Review: The Hybrid Bull India Will Crave

The Lamborghini Temerario is not just another supercar it is the start of a new chapter for the Italian marque. Replacing the iconic Huracán, a car worshipped for its naturally aspirated V10, the Temerario dares to rewrite Lamborghini’s rulebook with a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 hybrid.

For Indian enthusiasts, who often treat Lamborghinis as much more than cars symbols of drama, passion and wealth the Temerario represents a bold leap into the hybrid era. It is faster, more technologically advanced, and surprisingly easier to live with. But has it lost some of that raw, wild Lamborghini character? Let’s find out.

Powertrain: The Intelligent Hybrid Rage

At the heart of the Temerario lies a brand-new V8 engine that revs to an astonishing 10,000rpm a figure that edges into racing car territory. On its own, the petrol motor makes 800hp and 730Nm of torque.

But Lamborghini didn’t stop there. Three axial-flux electric motors join forces:

• One integrated into the gearbox for instant throttle response.
• Two mounted on the front axle for torque vectoring and added agility.

Together, the system produces a mind-bending 920hp. The 3.8kWh battery is small by EV standards but perfect for performance bursts. There’s even a stealthy 10km EV-only mode (Città) ideal for slipping out of a luxury villa in Delhi or Mumbai without disturbing the neighbours.

Quick Summary Table

Ride and Handling: Sharper Than Ever

The Temerario is built on a new aluminium spaceframe, which is 20% stiffer than the Huracán’s chassis. Pair this with a double-wishbone suspension and the latest MagneRide Evo adaptive dampers, and you have a Lamborghini that feels surgically precise.

• Agility Boost: Thanks to the e-motors on the front axle, the car feels like it is being “pulled” into corners.
• Torque Vectoring: Lets you rotate the car mid-corner with throttle inputs, giving confidence even at the limit.
• Downforce: Up to 35% more aerodynamic load than the Huracán Evo.

In Corsa mode, the car feels glued to the road. In Sport mode, it allows playful slides. There’s even a Rally mode (inspired by the Huracán Sterrato), making the Temerario one of the most versatile Lamborghinis ever.

Performance: Numbers That Shock

On Portugal’s Estoril Circuit, the Temerario showed its full fury.

• 0–100 km/h: 2.7 seconds.
• 0–200 km/h: Just over 7 seconds.
• Top Speed: 343 km/h.

What stands out is how linear the power delivery is. Unlike turbocharged engines with lag, the combination of turbo + e-motor means instant, relentless acceleration. The soundtrack may not have the shrieking V10 drama, but the deep V8 growl combined with electric whine is equally intoxicating.

Design: Less Wild, More Refined

The Temerario still looks every bit a Lamborghini, but the design is less angry than the Huracán.

• Hexagonal motifs dominate the lights, vents, and exhausts.
• Y-shaped DRLs are gone—reserved now for the flagship Revuelto.
• Aerodynamics-first design: Active rear wing, new front splitter, and aggressive diffuser.

From some angles, it looks stunning, but purists might miss the Huracán’s manic scowl. In India, where Lamborghinis are bought as much for attention as performance, this may divide opinions.

Interior: More Usable Than Ever

Inside, the Temerario is the most daily-friendly Lamborghini yet.

• Three screens: Driver display, central touchscreen, and optional passenger display.
• Comfort Features: Wireless charging, USB-C ports, improved seats, and cup holders.
• Ergonomics: Better visibility and space, though still lacking practical storage like door pockets.

With one-third of Lamborghini owners globally using their cars daily, this interior reflects the changing customer mindset, including in India.

Price in India

The Lamborghini Temerario is priced at around ₹6 crore ex-showroom in India, making it:

• 50% costlier than the outgoing Huracán Tecnica.
• Over 10% pricier than Ferrari’s hybrid 296 GTB in India.

While expensive, Lamborghini is banking on its hybrid technology, superior handling, and everyday usability to justify the premium.
