Unveiled at Monterey Car Week 2024, the Temerario1 has become a new benchmark in the super sports car segment owing to its unrivaled performance features: not only the hybrid powertrain combining a twin-turbo V8 engine with three axial flow electric motors, delivering a total power output of 920 CV, but also the new approach to chassis design.
Rouven Mohr, Chief Technical Officer of Automobili Lamborghini, unmasks the new Temerario with a detailed description of the new multi-technology spaceframe chassis, designed to withstand the higher loads deriving from the hybrid power unit, combining excellent mechanical qualities with remarkable efficiency in weight reduction.
These technologies made it possible to minimize the constructional complexity of the spaceframe, while at the same time enabling a high level of functional integration of the hybrid powertrain. In fact, the number of structural components has been reduced by 50%, along with an 80% reduction of heat welds. The new construction archetype has led to a 25% increase in torsional stiffness compared to the previous generation spaceframe, making a significant contribution to the vehicle’s excellent driving dynamics.

00:00The Temerario is built on a new, body-wide, specifically engineered and developed with a multi-technology aluminum spaceframe approach in order to withstand the higher forces from the new hybrid power unit, guaranteeing excellent mechanical properties together with efficiency in rate reductions.
00:20The new spaceframe adopts over 50% fewer components compared to the same parameters of the Huracán.
00:26In addition, the Temerario incorporates a significant reduction in the number of heat wells, over 80% less total welding length.
00:35The new construction archetype has therefore allowed increases in torsional stiffness of around 25% compared to the previous generation spaceframe, making a significant contribution to the excellent driving dynamics of the Temerario.
00:50A result obtained also thanks to the new engine rear frame, designed to perfectly fit the new powertrain, it contributes in increasing the torsional stiffness, enhancing the driving comfort.
01:02So, stay tuned for the next chapter, where we will deep dive into the different souls of the car.
