The $380,000 Lamborghini Temerario Balances Precision and Pure Thrill

Last summer I got a speeding ticket driving the Lamborghini Revuelto from Los Angeles to Carmel, California. Traffic citations are rare for me, but I got a little carried away in the Revuelto. The $664,799 V-12 1,001-horsepower hybrid was so fast, and so much fun to drive, the $400-ish penalty felt like a small price to pay for experiencing such joy on the open road.

So I was eager to drive the $382,654 Lamborghini Temerario this week in Estoril, Portugal. I wanted to feel joy! The new 907-horsepower V-8 hybrid replaces the V-10 Huracán, which ended production in 2024. But I like to think of it as more like the younger punk sibling of the Revuelto, since it shares a similar plug-in hybrid powertrain and a near perfect power curve that red-lines at 10,000 rpm, beating that of the 9,500-rpm Revuelto.
