We had a sneaking suspicion the Lamborghini Temerario would be unveiled during Monterey Car Week and we’ve been proven correct as the Huracan successor will be unveiled in California on August 16. The company isn’t saying much else at this point, but noted the “super sports car will mark the completion of the hybridization process of the Lamborghini range, featuring an all-new twin-turbo V8 engine paired with a hybrid system for best-in-class performance and driving experience.”
While Lamborghini is keeping details under wraps, the automaker has previously confirmed the car’s twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 will produce 789 hp (588 kW / 800 PS) and 538 lb-ft (730 Nm) of torque. It will be joined by an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission and a hybrid system with three electric motors. This will give the car a combined output in excess of 888 hp (662 kW / 900 PS).

As for the design, it isn’t much of a surprise at this point as spy photographers have caught multiple prototypes wearing an edgy front fascia, slender headlights, and hexagonal daytime running lights. They’re joined by aggressive intakes, a central exhaust, and an interior that appears to mimic the Revuelto. As a result, the model could have a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, an 8.4-inch infotainment system, and a 9.1-inch front passenger display.
Besides talking about the Huracan successor, Lamborghini highlighted their second quarter and half year results. Through the first six months of the year, the automaker delivered 5,558 vehicles and generated revenues of €1.62 ($1.75) billion. The latter enabled the company to post a record operating profit of €458 ($496) million.
The United States remained Lamborghini’s most important market and the company revealed the Revuelto has more than a two year waiting list. The Huracan is also booked solid as the company has enough orders to “cover the entire production run until the expected line closure in December.”
