Akmal Azhar
Lamborghini Kuala Lumpur set the stage ablaze on July 15, 2025, with the official Malaysian unveiling of the brand-new Lamborghini Temerario. The event showcased the supercar’s cutting-edge hybrid powertrain, setting a new benchmark for Lamborghini’s performance evolution.
New Twin-Turbo V8 and Hybrid System
Replacing the iconic naturally aspirated V10 of the Huracán, the Temerario introduces a new 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine paired with three electric motors. Alone, the V8 produces 800 PS, but with hybrid assistance, total output climbs to a blistering 920 PS and 2,150 Nm of torque. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is achieved in just 2.7 seconds.
Battery System and Electric-Only Capability
A 3.8 kWh battery pack allows short-distance electric-only driving through the front motors. It can be charged at up to 7 kW using an AC source. The Temerario offers three hybrid modes—Recharge, Hybrid, and Performance—to suit varying conditions and energy demands.
Five Drive Modes Including Corsa and Drift
Drivers can choose between five drive modes—Città, Strada, Sport, Corsa, and Corsa Plus—each optimising power distribution and suspension settings. A four-level Drift Mode enhances control and excitement on the track.
Advanced Aerodynamic Design and Lightweight Package
Featuring a fixed rear wing, deeper air channels, and sharper front end, the Temerario boosts downforce by 158 percent over the Huracán Evo.
With the Alleggeríta weight-saving pack, it sheds 25 kg while improving rigidity thanks to a new aluminium space-frame chassis.
High-Tech and Comfortable Interior
Inside, the cabin combines luxury and technology. It features three digital displays, ventilated seats, and increased headroom and storage space. The infotainment system supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while the passenger gets their own dedicated screen.
Exterior Colours and Customisation Options
Buyers can select from debut colours Blu Marinus and Verde Mercurius, with over 400 additional choices available through Lamborghini’s Ad Personam programme. Wheel sizes measure 20 inches front and 21 inches rear, fitted with Bridgestone Potenza Sport tyres.
Braking and Handling Performance
Equipped with carbon-ceramic brakes and ten-piston front calipers, the Temerario ensures elite braking performance. Torque vectoring through the front motors enhances agility and cornering stability.
Price and Warranty in Malaysia
The Lamborghini Temerario is priced from RM1.35 million before taxes and options. It comes with a 3-year vehicle warranty and
8-year battery coverage or 160,000km depending on which condition occurs first. Reflecting Lamborghini’s commitment to its hybrid technology.
A New Chapter in Lamborghini’s Electrified Future
As Lamborghini intensifies its electrification strategy under the High Performance Electrified Vehicle (HPEV) initiative, the Temerario follows the Revuelto in pushing the limits of hybrid technology while retaining Lamborghini’s extreme performance DNA.
