Lamborghini Temerario chassis has half the structural elements utilized in Huracán
- Lamborghini Temerario debuts new aluminum spaceframe chassis
- Chassis is lighter and stiffer than Huracán’s design
- Temerario begins gross sales in early 2025 with pricing from about $360,000
Lamborghini unveiled the Temerario in August because the successor to the Huracán, and the brand new supercar has massive sneakers to fill contemplating the Huracán is the highest-selling Lamborghini within the marque’s historical past, with nicely over 20,000 examples constructed through the automotive’s decade-long run.
Fortuitously Lamborghini pulled out all of the stops when designing the Temerario, blessing the automotive with a brand new chassis, new powertrain, and new aerodynamic ideas.
The chassis sticks with an aluminum spaceframe design, just like the Huracán, however there are main adjustments which have resulted in a 25% enhance in torsional stiffness—together with the variety of structural elements being diminished by half in comparison with the chassis within the Huracán, and the variety of warmth welds being diminished by 80%.
The chassis can be lighter in comparison with the one within the Huracán, whereas providing more room for occupants, Lamborghini stated. Nevertheless, the load financial savings are offset by the added weight of the Temerario’s plug-in hybrid system. The full weight of the Temerario is up, with the dry determine coming in at 3,725 kilos, versus about 3,330 for the V-10-powered Huracán.
Peak energy of 907 hp is generated within the Temerario by a newly developed twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 which works with trio of axial-flux electrical motors. Like its Revuelto massive brother, the Temerario options two electrical motors on the entrance axle, plus a 3rd sandwiched between its engine and transmission, on this case the 8-speed dual-clutch automated discovered within the Revuelto and mounted transversely behind the engine.
Efficiency figures embrace 0-62 mph acceleration in 2.7 seconds and a prime velocity of greater than 210 mph. An electrical vary can be attainable, due to a 3.8-kwh lithium-ion battery situated in a central tunnel.
A spread estimate hasn’t been offered however designers centered on delivering an aerodynamic form to assist maximize the determine. The automaker stated the Temerario’s form reaches new heights when it comes to aerodynamic effectivity, helped partly by numerous channels designed to direct air movement.
The Temerario begins gross sales early subsequent yr and is predicted to be priced from simply over $360,000 within the U.S.
