Lamborghini Unleashes Aggressive New Temerario GT3
Summary Lamborghinihas pulled the wraps off its next-generation race car, the Temerario GT3, marking the brand's first competition model entirely designed, developed and built at its Sant'Agata Bolognese headquarters. Derived from the road-goingTemerario, the GT3 version was engineered from the outset with motorsport in mind, bringing track-ready precision to a production-born platform. The new race car features a lightweight aluminum spaceframe chassis, reworked for racing serviceability and cloaked in carbon-composite bodywork designed for rapid pit-lane disassembly. Power comes from a re-engineered version of the 4L twin-turbo V8 engine, now making 550 hp in compliance with GT3 regulations, paired with a six-speed sequential gearbox. Advanced aerodynamics, improved cooling and a custom exhaust system developed with Capristo complete the performance package. Inside, the cockpit benefits from input by Lamborghini's factory drivers, featuring revised ergonomics, upgraded electronics and a bespoke steering wheel. The Temerario GT3 also introduces new six-way KW dampers, a longer wheelbase, wider track and custom hydraulic steering, all aimed at delivering greater cornering grip and ease of setup across race conditions. The car is set to debut at the 2026 Sebring 12 Hours, signaling Lamborghini's ongoing investment in global GT racing and its customer teams.

Temerario GT3: Lamborghini's First In-House Race Car Debuts At Goodwood
Temerario GT3: Lamborghini's First In-House Race Car Debuts At Goodwood originally appeared on Autoblog. Lamborghini pulled the wraps off the Temerario GT3 at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed, showing it alongside the road-going Temerario it's based on. But this isn't just another track version of a road car. It's Lamborghini's first competition car to be fully designed, developed, and built in-house. Finished in a striking Tricolore paint job, the GT3 embraces its Italian racecar heritage. But it's not just about looks. The hybrid system is gone, the body is all business, and this is the car that will lead Lamborghini's GT3 racing efforts starting in 2026. View the 4 images of this gallery on the original article Powering the GT3 is the same 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 found in the road car. But to meet GT3 regulations, Lamborghini removed the electric motors and fitted smaller turbochargers. That drops power produced by the gas-fed engine from 800 hp to around 550 hp, but it also slashes weight. The redline still sits at an ear-piercing 10,000 rpm, and a custom Capristo exhaust makes sure it sounds the part. The dual-clutch transmission is gone too. In its place is a six-speed transverse gearbox, designed to take the abuse of endurance racing. View the 3 images of this gallery on the original article Lamborghini's Centro Stile and Squadra Corse teams worked together to sculpt the GT3's bodywork. It's made from carbon composite materials and shaped to find the perfect balance between downforce and drag. But it also had to be practical. The front and rear body sections are single-piece units for quick removal in the pits, and even the headlights are fitted with quick-release connectors. Cooling has also been improved to keep everything stable during long runs, especially the two turbochargers. Underneath it all is a modified aluminum spaceframe, fitted with a fully removable rear subframe and an integrated roll cage that meets FIA GT3 safety standards. View the 2 images of this gallery on the original article In traditional race car fashion, the Temerario GT3's interior has been completely gutted, and only the necessities make an appearance. There's a custom race steering wheel, simplified switchgear, and a new data logging system to help teams monitor performance. The suspension is all-new, too. The GT3 rides on six-way adjustable KW dampers and features a longer wheelbase and wider track than the outgoing Huracán GT3. In theory, that should give it more grip and better balance, especially through high-speed corners. It has some big shoes to fill, though. The Huracán GT3 won 96 titles in a racing career that spanned nearly a decade.
