Temerario: The Potential Successor Name for Lamborghini Huracán

NEW Trademark - Lamborghini enthusiasts around the world bid farewell to an era as the iconic Lamborghini Huracán officially concluded its production this year. However, the excitement doesn't cease here, as the unveiling of the Huracán STJ, marking the production of its final 10 units, hints at a thrilling successor in the making.

The automotive realm is abuzz with speculations and leaks regarding the fate of this V10 powerhouse. Recent findings of Lamborghini's trademark registration for "Temerario" further fuel these speculations, suggesting it could be the chosen name for the Huracán's successor.

While concrete details remain veiled, glimpses of the Temerario have surfaced, hinting at a design lineage akin to its illustrious predecessor. Unlike opting for a revolutionary shift, Lamborghini's strategy seems to revolve around evolution by incorporating electrification and introducing an all-new eight-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) crafted from the ground up.

One notable aspect of the upcoming Revuelto is its adoption of a transversely mounted rear gearbox, a rare feat in Lamborghini's history, previously seen only in exclusive models like the legendary Miura and track-focused Essenza SCV12. This innovative gearbox not only trims weight but also boasts a streamlined construction, promising lightning-fast gear shifts compared to its predecessor's seven-speed dual-clutch counterpart.
The Lamborghini Temerario is anticipated to feature a milder plug-in hybrid powertrain, replacing the naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 with a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8, potentially incorporating a compact lithium-ion battery and front-mounted electric motor for all-wheel drive capability and limited electric-only range.

A pivotal advantage of this gearbox configuration lies in its impact on the battery placement. By situating the gearbox at the rear, Lamborghini engineers sidestep the need for a transmission tunnel, thereby creating ample room to seamlessly integrate the Revuelto's 3.8 kWh lithium-ion battery. This strategic placement ensures optimal weight distribution without compromising the car's handling prowess.

Developing an entirely new gearbox entails substantial investment. Lamborghini's cost-effective approach involves deploying this advanced gearbox across its entire lineup, including the highly anticipated Temerario. This integration was confirmed during the revelation of Revuelto's powertrain, where Lamborghini explicitly stated its plans for future super sports cars from Sant'Agata Bolognese.

The automotive landscape witnessed Lamborghini's global sales surpassing 10,000 units last year, with the Urus constituting a significant 60% share. The Huracán, with nearly 4,000 units sold, played a pivotal role in this success. As Lamborghini gears up to replicate this triumph with the Temerario, the introduction of an eight-speed DCT transmission stands as a testament to their commitment to unparalleled performance and driving experience. | PbrNfFB3mY4 |
In essence, the imminent arrival of the Lamborghini Temerario signifies a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation, promising enthusiasts a thrilling continuation of Lamborghini's legacy of uncompromising supercars. With each detail meticulously crafted, from the groundbreaking gearbox to the electrified powertrain, the Temerario is poised to redefine expectations and set new benchmarks in the realm of high-performance automotive engineering. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | CARSCOOPS | MOTORAUTHORITY | SUPERCARBLONDIE | CARMAG.CO.ZA ]
