The Lamborghini Temerario, the successor to the Huracán, has been unveiled with a cutting-edge hybrid powertrain that combines a new 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine and three electric motors. The V8 engine produces an impressive 800 CV and can rev up to 10,000 rpm, a remarkable feat for a turbocharged engine. The electric motors provide additional power, bringing the total output to 920 CV. This powerful combination allows the Temerario to accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in just 2.7 seconds and reach a top speed of over 211 mph.
The recent unveiling of the Temerario at Pebble Beach, California, has generated significant interest among automotive enthusiasts. Many YouTubers have provided detailed walkarounds of the car, showcasing its stunning exterior and luxurious interior. However, the Supercar Blondie YouTube channel has gained particular attention for demonstrating the unique starting procedure of the Lamborghini Temerario.

How To Start A Lamborghini Temerario?
Entering the Vehicle
- To start the Temerario, the driver approaches the vehicle with the key fob, which features an Italian flag design. The car’s proximity sensors detect the key, and the doors automatically unlock.
- Once inside, the driver places the key fob into a designated slot on the center console.
- To initiate the engine startup sequence, the driver taps the red “Start/Stop” button, which is inspired by fighter jet controls, without pressing the brake pedal first. This action brings the digital displays to life.
Starting the Engine
- Next, the driver selects the desired driving mode using the drive mode selector located to the right of the steering wheel. Rotating the selector to the right engages “Strada” (Street) mode for comfortable everyday driving, pressing it once activates “Sport” mode for a more dynamic experience, and pressing it again enters “Corsa” (Track) mode, unleashing the Temerario’s full potential.
- To start the twin-turbo V8 engine, the driver firmly presses the brake pedal with their right foot and presses the “Start/Stop” button once more. The engine roars to life, indicating that Temerario is ready to move.
Driving Off
- With the engine running, the driver keeps their right foot on the brake pedal and uses the drive mode selector to choose between automatic or manual shifting. If necessary, the “Lift” button can be pressed to raise the front axle by 40mm, providing extra clearance for speed bumps or steep driveways. The driver then releases the electronic parking brake using the designated control.
- To set off, the driver gently applies pressure to the accelerator pedal with their right foot while simultaneously releasing the brake pedal. The Temerario’s advanced all-wheel-drive system, powered by the V8 engine and three electric motors, ensures a smooth and confident start.
Without a doubt the Lamborghini Temerario represents a significant step forward in the world of hybrid Supersports cars, combining the raw power of a twin-turbo V8 with the efficiency and instant torque of electric motors. Its striking design, advanced technology, and unparalleled performance make it a true masterpiece of automotive engineering. While official pricing has not been announced, the Temerario is expected to start around $350,000-$400,000 based on Huracán’s pricing. The first deliveries will likely begin in late 2025 or early 2026.
As the Temerario takes to the streets, it is poised to set new benchmarks in the realm of high-performance hybrid vehicles, cementing Lamborghini’s position as a leader in innovative automotive design and engineering.
