Lamborghini Temerario GT3: Hybrid Heart Stripped, Pure V8 Unleashed

FIA GT3 rules forced Squadra Corse to remove all three electric motors and rebuild the powertrain from scratch.

The Temerario GT3 retains the road car's 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 but jettisons its three electric motors, and one report says the GT3's engine uses redesigned, smaller turbochargers to manage heat and boost without the electric assistance.

Designed for dual identity: road presence and racing credibility

Lamborghini's Director of Design Mitja Borkert has emphasized that the road car was conceived from its earliest sketches with future racing potential as a core consideration, and the number 63 on the GT3's flanks nods to the brand's 1963 founding year.

From Ferucci's no-racing mandate to a two-pronged factory program

Lamborghini now fields the SC63 in LMDh alongside the GT3 program, giving the brand a presence across the two most prominent categories in global sportscar racing — a two-pronged approach that mirrors what Ferrari and Porsche have done for years.

Built for privateers: quick swaps, smaller crews, longer races

Modular bodywork and quick-release panels let smaller customer teams swap damaged sections in minutes rather than hours, a practical necessity for endurance events like the race at Sebring where the Temerario GT3 made its competitive debut.

The stakes: a decade of GT3 competition against the class's deepest-ever field

The Temerario platform gives Lamborghini a modern, purpose-built foundation for its next decade of GT racing, and the car now needs to prove it can win consistently against the latest machinery from Ferrari, Porsche, McLaren, and Mercedes-AMG.
