Lamborghini Temerario Tettonero Will Make You Forget About The Revuelto
What's not to love about a 10,000 RPM redline?
With a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 that screams to 10,000 rpm, plus three electric motors, the Lamborghini Temerario has proven to be as quick as its big brother, the Revuelto. With production of the Italian brand's not-so-entry-level supercar in full swing, Lamborghini has just unveiled a new limited-edition variant, the Tettonero Capsule. It's not a lightweight, faster Superleggera, but it might be enough to convince some prospective Lamborghini shoppers to buy it over a Revuelto.
Lamborghini's Centro Stile design department developed the Temerario Tettonero Capsule, giving the V8-powered monster a distinctive two-tone finish. The hood, roof, and sharp lines running down the hood and along the sides are finished in black Nero Noctis and can be contrasted with Giallo Inti, Arancio Xanto, Blu Cepheus, Verde Scandal, and Viola Pasifae across the rest of the exterior.
The distinctive touches continue with contrasting Lamborghini emblems and optional Nero Noctis accents on the front bumper and hood. High Gloss Black bumpers, wing mirrors, and wheels add to the car's aggressive look. The Temerario Tettonero follows in the footsteps of the Urus SE Tettonero Capsule that Lamborghini unveiled in April, also sold in several striking two-tone finishes. Lamborghini is building just 630 examples of that special Urus and says it will cap Temerario Tettonero production at 499 units.
A special cabin and a familiar powertrain
In addition to the new model's exclusive exterior finishes, the interior features some special elements. All cars come standard with Nero Ade black upholstery with glimmering Grigio Octans yellow contrast stitching on the door panels and seat centers. The rear bulkhead includes a yellow-stitched outline of the Temerario's rear end, and each model will ship with a numbered, limited-edition matte carbon fiber plaque.
Lamborghini's replacement for the beloved Huracan has proven itself to be an absolute performance weapon since production started last year. The hot vee, eight-cylinder engine delivers 789 horsepower between 9,000 and 9,750 rpm and 538 pound-feet (730 Nm) of torque between 4,000 and 7,000 rpm. This engine alone would have been enough to make the Temerario a fitting replacement for the Huracan. However, Lamborghini also equipped it with a 3.8-kWh lithium-ion battery and three electric motors, lifting combined power up to 907 hp.
The Italian supercar brand has already confirmed that several new Temerario variants are in the works. The first will be a Spyder version, fitted with a retractable roof and a new rear decklid. In September, Lamborghini product line director Paolo Racchetti hinted at other models, including an off-road version in the same vein as the Huracan Sterrato, as well as a more track-oriented model, and perhaps even a limited-edition version with rear-wheel drive.
