Lamborghini has been noticed testing a prototype for its successor to the Huracán, a automotive regarded as referred to as a Temerario based mostly on latest trademark exercise. The identify is a Spanish phrase that roughly interprets to “reckless.” Equally, the automotive’s Revuelto large brother contains a identify that interprets to “scrambled” or “unruly.”

The brand new supercar is due in late 2024 with a plug-in hybrid powertrain, and judging by the spy photographs and video it’ll boast a design that is distinct from the Revuelto, at the very least on the skin. Inside, there seem like some similarities, like a floating digital gauge cluster and a skinny digital show on the passenger facet of the sprint.

The face of the automotive is considerably completely different to the Revuelto, characterised by slit-like headlights and huge daytime working lights with a hexagonal form. The automotive additionally has giant intakes on the high of its rear fenders, and appears to be significantly shorter total in comparison with the Revuelto.

Whereas the Huracán and its Gallardo predecessor have been carefully associated to Audi’s R8 supercar, the Temerario will borrow from the Revuelto, together with the adoption of the V-12 supercar’s carbon-fiber tub. This is sensible because the R8 is now out of manufacturing, and no matter supercar Audi will launch subsequent will likely be electrical.

Lamborghini has confirmed that the Revuelto’s 8-speed dual-clutch automated will likely be used within the Huracán successor. The transmission, which is Lamborghini’s personal design, integrates an electrical motor within the Revuelto, and the identical will seemingly be true right here as effectively. What is not clear is whether or not the Huracán successor can even have two extra electrical motors on its entrance axle like within the Revuelto.

The automotive is anticipated to lose the present V-10 engine and as an alternative go along with a V-8 for the internal-combustion element of its plug-in hybrid powertrain, particularly the twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 discovered within the Urus. Lamborghini will use the V-8 in its plug-in hybrid Urus set to reach this yr as effectively, and the sound of the prototype’s engine within the video may be very very similar to the sound of the Urus’ V-8.

The Huracán STJ revealed this week is the ultimate model of the Huracán, and thus additionally the final Lamborghini powered purely by a combustion engine. Simply 10 examples will likely be constructed.

By the tip of 2024, all Lamborghinis will likely be electrified, at the very least so far as common manufacturing fashions are involved. The automaker could proceed to supply low-volume fashions powered purely by a combustion engine, although these could also be restricted to trace use, like 2020’s Essenza SCV12. Lamborghini’s first EV, previewed by final yr’s Lanzador idea, is due in 2028.
