Lamborghini Temerario vs Huracan: What's Improved in the New Plug-In Hybrid Supercar

Send Push

Automobili Lamborghini has officially ushered in a new era of high-performance hybrid motoring with the launch of the all-new Lamborghini Temerario, the spiritual and technological successor to the iconic Huracan. With a massive leap in performance, a redesigned chassis, enhanced aerodynamics, and a tech-forward cabin, the Temerario is more than just a replacement—it’s a revolution.

Here’s an in-depth comparison highlighting the most significant upgrades from the Lamborghini Huracan to the Temerario.

Powertrain: V10 vs Hybrid V8 Supremacy

The Huracan was known for its sonorous, naturally aspirated 5.2-litre V10, producing up to 631 bhp. In contrast, the Temerario introduces an all-new 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 paired with three electric motors, pushing the output to a staggering 907 bhp.

  • Huracan: 631 bhp, 0–100 km/h in 3.4 sec, 325 km/h top speed

  • Temerario: 907 bhp, 0–100 km/h in 2.7 sec, 343 km/h top speed

The new plug-in hybrid powertrain also features a redline at 10,000 rpm, significantly higher than the Huracan’s 8,250 rpm, resulting in more dramatic acceleration and top-end performance.

Chassis & Rigidity: Sharper Handling Dynamics

The Huracan’s hybrid aluminium and carbon fibre chassis has been replaced in the Temerario by a new aluminium spaceframe, improving torsional rigidity by over 20%. This change reduces structural complexity and improves cornering capability.

  • Fewer welds and parts result in enhanced build quality and reduced weight

  • Greater structural stiffness means better high-speed stability and handling confidence

Interior Technology: From Basic to High-Tech

The Temerario takes a huge leap forward in cabin tech:

  • Huracan: One digital driver display, minimal infotainment

  • Temerario:

    • 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster

    • 8.4-inch vertical infotainment touchscreen

    • 9.1-inch passenger-side display

New features include augmented reality navigation, live telemetry, and advanced connectivity, creating a cockpit more in tune with Lamborghini’s future-forward vision.

Practicality & Comfort: From Track to Street

Long criticized for its minimal comfort, Lamborghini has addressed daily usability in the Temerario:

  • Longer wheelbase means more cabin space

  • New comfort seats offer electric adjustability, heating, and ventilation

  • Electric-only mode enables quiet city driving, a first for Lamborghini performance models

Aerodynamics & Weight Reduction: Form Meets Function

The Temerario boasts 118% improved aerodynamic efficiency over the Huracan, thanks to:

  • Active aero components that adjust in real time

  • Optional Alleggerita package which cuts 25 kg via carbon fibre panels and lighter wheels

  • Enhanced downforce and cooling efficiency at high speeds

Verdict: Temerario Is a Bold Step into Lamborghini’s Electrified Future

The Lamborghini Temerario doesn’t just replace the Huracan—it redefines what a supercar can be in the hybrid age. With brutal performance, advanced tech, and a newfound daily usability, it shows Lamborghini’s commitment to innovation without compromising its brand DNA of drama, design, and driving exhilaration.
