Lamborghini Trademarks Temerario Name, Is It For Huracan Successor ?

It is no secret that Lamborghini is developing a successor to the Huracan as prototypes have been spied testing on many occasions. However, the name of this new model has remained a closely guarded secret, but a new trademark filing has shed light on what it could be called.It recently emerged that the Italian supercar manufacturer had submitted a trademark filing with the European Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) for the name ‘Temerario’.

As noted by Carbuzz that discovered it, this trademark filing also includes a graphic representation of the name, showing Temerario in a familiar Lamborghini text with bull horns on the corners of the ‘T’ and the ‘O.’Read: Lamborghini Confirms Plug-In Hybrid Powertrain For Huracan ReplacementLamborghini likes to name its vehicles after Spanish fighting bulls, including the Revuelto which is named after a bull that fought in Barcelona back in 1880. There doesn’t appear to be a legendary fighting bull named Temerario (at least that we could find), but the word does translate to fearless/intrepid in English.

Such a word sounds apt to describe a new Lamborghini model, even if it does break from convention.Regardless of what the new model is called, we already know many important details about it. In news that will disappoint some enthusiasts, the beloved 5.2-liter naturally-aspirated V10 of the Huracan will be replaced with a twin-turbocharged V8.

This engine is thought to have been developed in-house rather than lifted out of a pre-existing VW Group product and will be paired to either two or three axial-flux electric motors similar to those of the Revuelto.Like the Huracan and Gallardo, the new model will be all-wheel drive. It’s also possible it will launch with the innovative system developed by Lamborghini to adjust the toe and camber of a car on the fly.The styling of the Temerario will also be significantly different than the Huracan and take inspiration from the Revuelto.
