All-new Lambo is 907bhp V8 PHEV

Lamborghini has taken the covers off the longawaited replacement for its Huracán junior supercar: the Temerario.

The revered 5.2-litre V10 that has powered Lamborghini's mainstream supercars since 2003 has been ditched in favour of an all-new twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8, assisted by three electric motors. It has a hot-vee layout, meaning the turbos are mounted between the two cylinder banks.

One motor is mounted between the engine's flatplane crankshaft and the gearbox. The other two are mounted on the front axle, affording the Temerario near-silent, front-wheel-drive operation for short distances.

Alone, the engine puts out a whopping 789bhp between 9000rpm and 9750rpm, before redlining at 10,000rpm. Add in the motors and output rockets to 907bhp, yielding a 0-62mph sprint time of 2.7sec and a 213mph top speed.

The motors contribute a relatively small proportion of the system's total output because they are used for torque-filling at low revs, mitigating the lag that results from the use of large, high-pressure turbos.

They are powered by a small 3.8kWh battery that can be charged by an AC device at rates of up to 7kW.

One evening, two years ago, George Pappas was being driven down his local high street by a mate and mulling over whether to replace his Mk4 Golf diesel, a recent purchase that was boring him to death, when his girlfriend, also in the car, spotted an old BMW 3 Series at the side of the road with a 'for sale' sign in the window.
