Lamborghini Temerario: The Tamer Supercar That Redefines Everyday Performance

For decades, Lamborghini has been synonymous with wild, uncompromising supercars — machines that roar down the road with flamboyant styling and ferocious engines. From the Countach to the Aventador, the brand has built its reputation on excess. Yet in 2025, Lamborghini introduced a new chapter with the Temerario, a supercar that tempers the madness with usability, technology, and hybrid efficiency. Dubbed Lamborghini’s “tamer supercar,” the Temerario is designed to be both thrilling and approachable.

A New Era After the Huracán

The Temerario replaces the Huracán in Lamborghini’s lineup, marking a significant shift in philosophy. Where the Huracán was a naturally aspirated V10 beast, the Temerario embraces electrification. It is Lamborghini’s third hybrid supercar, following the Revuelto and the Sián, but unlike those halo models, the Temerario is positioned as the brand’s entry-level offering.

This makes it crucial for Lamborghini’s future: it must balance affordability (relatively speaking) with the brand’s trademark drama.

Powertrain: Hybrid Muscle

At the heart of the Temerario lies a plug-in hybrid twin-turbo V8 engine, paired with three electric motors. Together, they produce:

  • 905 bhp of combined output
  • 2,150 Nm of torque

This hybrid setup ensures blistering acceleration while also offering improved efficiency compared to older Lamborghinis. The electric motors provide instant torque, while the V8 delivers the visceral soundtrack enthusiasts expect.

Design: Subdued Yet Striking

Visually, the Temerario is more restrained than the flamboyant Revuelto. Lamborghini fans have described it as “buttoned-up”, with cleaner lines and less aggressive detailing. This is intentional — the Temerario is meant to be a supercar you can live with daily, not just a weekend toy.

Still, it’s unmistakably a Lamborghini. The wide stance, sharp angles, and signature Y-shaped lighting elements ensure it commands attention. And for those who crave more drama, tuners like 1016 Industries have already developed wide-body kits with fender extensions, aero splitters, and aggressive intakes to give the Temerario a wilder look.

Interior: Everyday Luxury

Inside, the Temerario emphasizes comfort and technology. Premium materials, digital displays, and driver-focused ergonomics make it a supercar that doesn’t punish its occupants. Unlike older Lamborghinis, which often felt cramped and raw, the Temerario offers a more refined cabin experience.

Price and Market Position

The Temerario launched in India in April 2025 at a price of ₹6 crore (ex-showroom). This positions it as Lamborghini’s most accessible hybrid supercar, though still firmly in the ultra-luxury segment. Globally, it competes with models like the Ferrari 296 GTB and McLaren Artura, both of which also embrace hybrid technology.

Why It’s Called the “Tamer Supercar”

The nickname stems from its more restrained design and usability compared to Lamborghini’s wilder offerings. While the Revuelto screams excess, the Temerario whispers sophistication. It’s a car that can handle city streets and long drives without constantly reminding you of its supercar status.

Yet, “tamer” doesn’t mean boring. With nearly 1,000 horsepower, the Temerario is still a monster when unleashed. The difference is that it’s easier to live with — a supercar for those who want thrills without sacrificing practicality.

Conclusion

The Lamborghini Temerario represents a turning point for the brand. By blending hybrid technology, refined design, and everyday usability, it redefines what a Lamborghini can be. It’s still fast, loud, and dramatic — but it’s also approachable, efficient, and versatile.

In short, the Temerario is Lamborghini’s tamer supercar, a machine that proves you don’t need to shout to be heard. For enthusiasts who want the Lamborghini badge without the uncompromising madness, the Temerario is the perfect balance of performance and practicality.
