Automobili Lamborghini debuted its latest High Performance Electrified Vehicle (HPEV), the Temerario, in Toronto this week, following the global unveiling during Monterey Car Week in August 2024. The Temerario replaces the iconic Huracán and completes Lamborghini’s hybridized lineup, which also includes the brand’s first HPEV, the Revuelto, and the most versatile and fun-to-drive Super SUV, the Urus SE. To celebrate the super sports car’s first Canadian market appearance, the Italian marque hosted customers, media guests and VIPs during an exclusive event at Ricarda’s attended by Automobili Lamborghini Americas Chief Executive Officer, Andrea Baldi.

In 2021, Lamborghini announced the Direzione Cor Tauri strategy, the brand’s roadmap to electrification, and has now fully hybridized the product range to enhance both driving dynamics and performance,” said Baldi. “With the introduction of the Temerario and its new V8 hybrid powertrain, Lamborghini has the most complete super sports car lineup on the market, complemented by the V12 Revuelto and versatile Urus SE Super SUV.”

The Temerario features an evolved design language and an all-new twin-turbo V8 engine with three electric motors, providing a total power output of 920 CV (907hp). Designed and developed in Sant’Agata Bolognese, this new V8 is the first production super sports car engine capable of reaching 10,000 rpm. With a top speed of over 340 km/h (210+ mph) and 0 to 100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 2.7 seconds, the Temerario sets a new benchmark for super sports cars by offering an unrivaled, uncompromising driving experience.

Lamborghini has seen an unprecedented period of transformation and growth with the factory now producing over 10,000 cars per year. In 2024, Lamborghini delivered 10,687 cars – a 5.7% increase over 2023 and another company record. Following the Temerario, Lamborghini continues to move forward with its Direzione Cor Tauri strategy, with the goal of reducing company emissions by 40% per vehicle by 2030.

Customers will begin taking delivery of the Temerario in 2026 at a suggested retail price of $432,490 CAD.
