Lamborghini’s new V8 engine

August 16 is approaching when Lamborghini will reveal its new car and successor to the Huracan, the Temerario. There are many unknowns about the car, and now a video has appeared that reveals the sound of its V8 engine.

According to the latest information, the Lamborghini Temerario will be powered by a 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine with 800 hp (596 kW) and 538 lb-ft (730 Nm) of torque combined with three electric motors, totaling over 900 hp (671 kW ). The engine is paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission.

At the beginning of the video, a Lamborghini Gallardo is shown with which begins the transformation to a Huracan and a 5.2-L V10 engine. The rev counter goes over 10,000 rpm and then the red warning lights come on, which emphasizes the arrival of the V8 engine and the Lamborghini Temerario.

The car is still covered in camouflage, and what can be seen in the spy photos is a sharper design of the front fascia, thin headlights and hexagonal daytime running lights, a more aggressive intake, and a centrally mounted exhaust system. Also, the interior of the car is similar to the Rivuelto model, which suggests that it could be equipped with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, an 8.4-inch infotainment system and a 9.1-inch screen for the passenger.

AMG will keep the V8 engine

AMG has announced that its 4.0-L V8 engine will remain in service longer than expected due to reduced demand for electric cars, but will not be an option in the most powerful versions of the Mercedes C-Class and E-Class, which will receive new powertrains.

Like many other companies, Mercedes-AMG planned to fully electrify its cars, but the current situation with battery prices forced this company to change its plans. This means that the full electrification of Mercedes-AMG cars is expected after 2035.

The company announced that it is investing a lot of money in the development of the hybrid system, and that customers are increasingly getting used to the 2.0-L four-cylinder engine (M139) with a plug-in hybrid system, which powers the current model C63. The decision of the Mercedes management is also supported by Michael Schiebe, CEO of AMG.

Lamborghini developed a new V8 engine

Lamborghini is currently developing the successor to the Huracan, and the prototype goes by the name 634. With this car, Lamborghini will complete the transition to an electrified range that currently consists of the Revuelto and the plug-in hybrid Urus SE, and according to information from the company, it will be powered by a new hybrid V8 engine.

Lamborghini is part of the Volkswagen Group, and several other group companies, including Porsche, offer a 4.0-L V8 twin-turbo engine. However, this powertrain will not be used in the Huracan successor, as Lamborghini claims to have developed a new hybrid V8 engine.

Details about the electric motors that will be part of the powertrain remain unknown, but it is known that there will be three electric motors and that one will be between the V8 engine and the eight-speed gearbox. However, the car won’t sound like your average hybrid. It will have a shorter range using only electric drive, but Lamborghini promises the sound of a modern supercar.

The Lamborghini 634 will be powered by a 4.0-L twin-turbo V8 engine with around 800 hp (596 kW) and 538 lb-ft (730 Nm) of torque, mated to an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. As a reminder, the Huracan is powered by a 5.2-L naturally aspirated V10 engine with 640 hp (477 kW) and 443 lb-ft (600 Nm) of torque. Also, the Revuelt is powered by a V12 engine with 825 hp (615 kW).
