Name
editIn keeping with the Lamborghini tradition of naming car models after famous fighting bulls, Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann stated that "Temerario is the name of a fighting bull that fought in 1875, and Temerario means fierce, courageous."[6]
Engine, motors, and battery
editThe flat-plane hot vee 4.0L (3995.2cc) V8 engine produces 730 Nm (538.42 ft-lbs) (4,000 - 7,000 rpm) and 800 PS (789hp, 588kW) (9,000 - 9,750 rpm), with a 10,000 rpm redline. The electric motor between the engine and the gearbox has 300 Nm (221.26 ft-lbs) and 110 kW (148hp, 150 PS) at 3,500 rpm.[2] There are two other electric motors on the front axle. [7]The motors make use of axial-flux electric motors that provide a larger magnetic surface for better performance. Combined power output is 907 hp (920 PS, 677 KW).[8][6] It is important to note that this engine is mechanically unrelated to the 4.0L (3996cc) hot vee Volkswagen-Audi V8 engine (4.0 TFSI). The Temerario will use the existing 3.8 kWh battery pack from the Lamborghini Revuelto.
Transmission
editThe Temerario will use an adapted version of the Revuelto’s 8-speed dual-clutch transmission .[2] The gearbox is transverse and mounted behind the engine.
Performance
editLamborghini has stated that the maximum speed of the Temerario is over 340 km/h (210 mph) and reaches 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 2.7 seconds.[1]
