The drivetrain incorporates the three electric motors with 110kW of power each. Two oil-cooled axial flow electric motors with a total peak output of 220kW and up to 2,150Nm of torque drive the front axle when required to achieve all-wheel drive. The single electric motor at the rear is located between the combustion engine and the eight-speed dual clutch transmission.

The Lamborghini Temerario is equipped with a 4,500W/kg lithium-ion battery pack situated within the central tunnel, keeping the car’s centre of gravity as low as possible and ensuring optimal weight distribution.

The car is able to be driven on solely electric power in Città (city) mode, while Strada (street), Sport and Corsa (race) are the other driving modes selectable by the driver. A Drift Mode option helps the driver generate controlled oversteer adjustable to three different levels.

“We wanted to develop an incomparable, high-performance sports engine that combines the best of two worlds: an emotional combustion engine based on a twin-turbocharged V8 and a performance-orientated electrification. Our concept of incorporating three electric motors with a combustion engine ensures to achieve instantaneous acceleration, torque vectoring and energy recuperation,” says Rouven Mohr, chief technical officer at Lamborghini.

“The Temerario is an extraordinary and innovative vehicle both from a technical and stylistic point of view,” says Stephan Winkelmann, chair and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini.

“Every new Lamborghini must surpass its forerunners in performance terms, while at the same time being more sustainable from an emissions standpoint. With the Temerario, we have completed a key chapter in the electrification strategy included in our Direzione Cor Tauri plan: we also become the first luxury automotive brand to offer a completely hybridised range.”
