Automobili Lamborghini SpA unveiled the successor to its Huracán sports car on Friday in Monterey, California, as the automaker basks in record results amid a wider industry slump.

The all-new Temerario coupe pairs a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V-8 engine with three electric motors in a continuation of the Italian automaker’s hybrid strategy. Chief Executive Officer Stephan Winkelmann told Bloomberg prior to the reveal that making such supercars, not pure EVs, was key to the company’s strong market position, as hybrids can boost power while maintaining the “emotion of driving.”
