2025 Lamborghini Temerario officially launched in Malaysia – price starts at RM1.35 million

Lamborghini Kuala Lumpur has announced the arrival of the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) supercar model that replaces the Huracan, the 2025 Lamborghini Temerario for the local market.

Each Temerario comes with a starting price of RM1.35 million, excluding duty, tax and customization costs.

Here are some key facts you should know about this HPEV (High-Performance Electrified Vehicle) from Lamborghini:

 

1. Power

Gone is the V10 engine, as Lamborghini has fitted a brand new powertrain unit.

The 2025 Temerario is equipped with a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine (789 hp/730 Nm) combined with three axial-flux electric motors.

With a combined output of 920 hp, it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.7 seconds before reaching a top speed of 343 km/h.

 

2. Zero-Emission Mode

Interestingly, the Lamborghini can be driven in zero-emission mode using the two electric motors at the front axle, each producing 82 hp.

It comes with a 3.8 kWh battery pack that can be charged in 30 minutes using a 7 kW AC port, or as quickly as six minutes using power from the V8 engine.

Where is the third electric motor? It is positioned between the engine and the 8-speed dual-clutch gearbox, capable of generating up to 150 hp and 300 Nm.

 

3. Chassis

In contrast to the Huracan’s chassis, which uses a mix of aluminum and carbon fiber, Lamborghini has utilized all-aluminum for the Temerario’s chassis.

This not only ensures that the weight remains at the desired level but also claims to provide 20 percent greater torsional stiffness.

 

4. Hexagonal Elements Take Center Stage

The exterior of the Temerario features a blend of design elements found in both the Revuelto and Huracan models.

The headlamps of the Temerario are slimmer than those of the Huracan, and if you notice, hexagonal graphic elements dominate the exterior of this PHEV.

Just look at the headlights on the front bumper, the rear lights, the exhaust outlets, and not forgetting both the fuel tank and charging port covers.

 

5. Cabin Space

The hexagonal theme extends to the cabin, with a design inspired by fighter jet cockpits.

It features a 12.3-inch digital cluster screen, an 8.4-inch vertical center screen, and a 9.1-inch screen for passengers.

Comfort has also been prioritized, as the Temerario now offers greater head and leg room compared to the Huracan.

Lamborghini even claims that an NBA player standing at 198 cm can fit comfortably inside the Temerario cabin while wearing a helmet!

Lamborghini Temerario, HPEV replacing the Huracan with 920 hp!

Say hello to the Lamborghini Temerario, the successor to the Lamborghini Huracan which was previously powered by a V10 engine.

Externally, the Temerario appears to be a fusion of design elements from the Revuelto and Huracan models.

The front headlights appear slimmer compared to the Huracan, while the rear is adorned with hexagon-shaped LED structures.

As standard, the Temerario comes fitted with 20 and 21-inch rims, accompanied by aerodynamic features that can increase downforce by 103 percent compared to the Huracan Evo.

Lamborghini also offers the Allegerita package, including a rear wing, unique bumper, and carbon fiber rims resulting in significant weight savings of up to 25 kg and an additional 158 percent increase in downforce.

There is also the Carbon Pack which further reduces weight by 1.81 kg through the use of carbon components such as the rear diffuser, side mirror housings, and side air intakes.

For this High Performance Electrified Vehicle (HPEV) model, Lamborghini has introduced a completely new powertrain unit.

The 4.0-liter V8 engine with a 90-degree angle features a Hot V configuration, a flat-plane crankshaft, and two turbochargers with a maximum pressure of 36 psi.

It also sports aluminum alloy cylinder heads and titanium connecting rods for weight reduction.

With a redline reaching up to 10,000 rpm, the engine is paired with three axial-flux electric motors with a combined power output of 920 hp cooled by oil.

Acceleration from 0-100 km/h is achieved in just 2.7 seconds before reaching a top speed of 340 km/h.

A single electric motor producing 150 hp/300 Nm is sandwiched between the engine and the twin-clutch gearbox, while two additional motors are positioned on the front axle, each generating 82 hp.

The 3.8 kWh battery pack can be charged for 30 minutes using a 7 kW AC charger, or via regenerative braking, or directly using the V8 engine power for about six minutes.

Interestingly, the Lamborghini Temerario can be driven in electric mode utilizing the two front axle electric motors, although the range of this supercar in zero-emission mode has not been disclosed.

The Temerario chassis is fully constructed using aluminum to maintain minimum weight levels, with a 20 percent increase in torsional rigidity.

The cabin space features a cockpit-like design enhanced with hexagonal design elements, including an 8.4-inch central screen, a 12.3-inch digital cluster screen, and an additional 9.1-inch screen for passengers.

Headroom is said to be larger than the Huracan model, followed by legroom, with Lamborghini claiming that a 198 cm tall NBA basketball player could wear a helmet while sitting in the Temerario cabin.
