This marks the final occasion you'll witness Lamborghini's forthcoming supercar concealed under camouflage. The successor to the Huracan is set to debut on August 16 at Pebble Beach, yet there remains testing to complete before then. Photographed in Spain, the vehicle, dubbed "Temerario," is already captivating despite its veiled appearance. The iconic hexagonal design remains prominent, evident not just in the six-sided exhaust but also in the taillights surrounding it. The Huracan Tecnica featured hexagonal exhaust tips, but the theme is more pronounced here with a larger, centrally positioned single exhaust outlet. The rear bumper, with its rounded corners, partially reveals the robust tires, and an aggressive diffuser, incorporating an F1-style light, sits between them. On either side of the license plate, vents aid in cooling the engine, which now houses a newly engineered twin-turbo V-8, generating 789 horsepower and 538 pound-feet of torque, complemented by three electric motors that boost the total output beyond 887 hp. Additionally, the engine boasts a 10,000-rpm redline. At the front, the influence of the Revuelto is apparent in the daytime running lights that form a "Y" shape, a recurring design feature in contemporary Lamborghinis. The lower lights, naturally, follow the hexagonal pattern, a signature style of the Italian marque since the 1967 Marzal concept. Lamborghini has affirmed that this will be a completely new model, so don't anticipate a twin to the Audi R8 as that era has concluded. Audi, the parent company of Lamborghini, has discontinued its mid-engine supercar, with the last model produced earlier this year and no direct successor planned. An electric variant will eventually emerge.
