According to Automobili Lamborghini, the new Lamborghini Temerario Tricolore debuted during Monterey Car Week at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, marking the first time the Tricolore name has been used since the 2011 Gallardo LP 550-2 Tricolore. Designed by Lamborghini Centro Stile in collaboration with the Ad Personam personalization program, the bespoke high-performance electrified vehicle pairs a 920-horsepower plug-in hybrid powertrain with a unique two-tone exterior and national flag graphics, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Ad Personam division.
Monterey Car Week Debut and Heritage Link
The vehicle serves as a contemporary interpretation of the Tricolore lineage, following the Gallardo LP 550-2 Tricolore introduced in 2011 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Italian unification, as detailed by lamborghini.com. Fifteen years later, the colors of the Italian flag return on Lamborghini’s latest high-performance electrified vehicle, combining the manufacturer’s heritage with modern individualization.
Winkelmann added that the new interpretation brings Italian national colors into the new era of the super sports car while demonstrating the capabilities of the Ad Personam program.
Two-Tone Exterior Design and Aero Details
The exterior features a bold two-tone composition developed by Lamborghini Centro Stile and finalized through Ad Personam. According to lamborghini.com, Blu Marinus Shiny defines the lower section of the body, featuring a deep blue finish that reveals lighter reflections under direct light, while Bianco Monocerus extends across the upper surfaces, including the upper sections of the doors and fenders.
Distinct elements finished in Glossy Nero Noctis are applied to the wheels, upper section, rear, engine cover, and exterior mirrors to establish a sharp contrast against the primary dual-color scheme, thereby accentuating the vehicle’s sculptural lines. Rosso brake calipers provide a sporting accent, while a dedicated green, white, and red graphic on the bonnet references the Italian flag, as reported by lamborghini.com. This contrasting treatment emphasizes the sharp front surfaces, hexagonal daytime running lights, exposed engine, and functional aerodynamic elements integrated into the body.
Bespoke Cockpit Craftsmanship
The interior translates the Tricolore theme into a personal environment using Nero Ade leather upholstery complemented by Rosso Alala contrast stitching, according to lamborghini.com. A recurring hexagonal motif establishes a visual connection with the exterior design language and the brand’s stylistic identity.
Cabin details include a bespoke silhouette of the car integrated into the rear cabin trim and Tricolore lettering embroidered on the door panels. According to lamborghini.com, these elements demonstrate how the Ad Personam program transforms the cabin into an expression of customer personality without compromising the sporting character of the Temerario.
Plug-In Hybrid Powertrain and Performance Figures
Under the skin, the Temerario Tricolore retains the advanced hybrid architecture of the standard Temerario. As reported by lamborghini.com, its newly developed 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine is combined with three electric motors to deliver a total output of 920 CV (920 horsepower).
The combustion engine is capable of reaching 10,000 rpm, establishing a benchmark in the production super sports car segment with immediate throttle response and an engine note across the rev range. Armed with selective electric-only functionality, the car is capable of sprinting from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.7 seconds and can attain a maximum velocity in excess of 340 km/h, according to lamborghini.com.
