How Lamborghini’s new twin-turbo V8 reaches a staggering 10,000 RPM
Lamborghini is retiring its naturally aspirated V10 in favor of a high-revving, twin-turbocharged V8. This video explores the engineering behind the new Temerario and features insights from Lamborghini’s chief technical officer, Rouven Mohr.
The transition from a V10 to a V8 architecture marks a significant shift for Lamborghini. While many expected a loss of character, the new Temerario engine is designed to be one of the highest-revving turbocharged V8 engines in production car history, capable of reaching 10,000 RPM. Through a discussion with chief technical officer Rouven Mohr, the video investigates the technical necessity of moving away from naturally aspirated engines and the specific engineering feats that allow a turbocharged unit to sustain such extreme rotational speeds.
