Lamborghini has unveiled the Temerario Super Trofeo design concept, offering the world its first look at the next-generation machine that will spearhead the marque’s customer racing program from 2027 onward. The dramatic new racer will serve as the successor to the Huracán Super Trofeo, which has defined Lamborghini’s one-make racing championships for nearly a decade.
The unveiling took place during the Lamborghini World Finals weekend at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, where the Italian automaker showcased what it calls “a vision for the future of Squadra Corse racing.”
The Next Chapter in Lamborghini’s Racing Heritage
The Temerario Super Trofeo marks the sixth-generation racing car developed under Lamborghini Squadra Corse, the brand’s official motorsport division established in 2013. It follows a proud lineage that includes the Gallardo Super Trofeo and multiple iterations of the Huracán Super Trofeo (Evo, Evo2), which together built the backbone of Lamborghini’s global racing presence.
With over 1,300 drivers participating in Super Trofeo championships across Europe, North America, and Asia, the series has become one of the world’s most successful customer racing platforms — offering both professional and gentleman drivers the thrill of competing in purpose-built Lamborghini race cars.
Speaking at the unveiling, Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini, emphasized the brand’s racing evolution:
“Lamborghini was not born as a racing brand, yet our customers have constantly asked us for products designed for the track. The Super Trofeo has grown into a global success story, and with the Temerario, we aim to set new standards for customer motorsport performance and innovation.”
Derived from the Temerario GT3 — Built for the Track
The Temerario Super Trofeo draws heavily from Lamborghini’s recently revealed Temerario GT3, which made its global debut at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed and will compete in the 12 Hours of Sebring in March 2026.
While both models share a carbon-intensive chassis structure and aerodynamic design philosophy, the Super Trofeo version has been fine-tuned for one-make racing championships, focusing on accessibility, cost efficiency, and reliability — all while maintaining extreme performance levels.
Under the hood, the Temerario Super Trofeo is expected to feature a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 engine, derived from the same power unit as the GT3 version, delivering approximately 641hp (650PS). This makes it one of the most powerful customer racing cars Lamborghini has ever produced, blending brute performance with advanced race engineering.
Design: A Fusion of Form and Function
Visually, the Temerario Super Trofeo stays true to Lamborghini’s unmistakable design DNA while pushing aerodynamic efficiency to new extremes. The sharp, sculpted lines, massive intakes, and low-slung stance are more aggressive and functional than ever before.
Key design elements include:
- Wide, flared arches to accommodate racing slicks and enhance cornering grip.
- Active aerodynamic components, including an adjustable rear wing and vented hood for improved airflow and downforce balance.
- A lightweight carbon-fibre monocoque for maximum rigidity and minimal weight.
- Track-optimized diffuser and side skirts designed for superior aerodynamic stability at high speeds.
Inside, the cockpit is entirely race-focused, featuring:
- A multi-function steering wheel derived from GT3 technology.
- Full FIA-spec safety cage, racing harness, and fire suppression system.
- Digital telemetry display for real-time vehicle diagnostics and lap timing.
The car’s chassis tuning and electronic systems have been specifically calibrated for the Super Trofeo series, ensuring high performance with predictable handling characteristics suitable for a wide range of driver skill levels.
Super Trofeo 2027: A New Era of Competition
The Temerario Super Trofeo will make its official racing debut in 2027, competing in the Lamborghini Super Trofeo Championships across Europe, North America, and Asia. The car will replace the Huracán Super Trofeo Evo2, which has served as the mainstay of Lamborghini’s customer racing fleet since 2022.
The Super Trofeo series will continue to serve as a key feeder platform for drivers aspiring to step up to GT3 and endurance racing categories, where Lamborghini has been gaining prominence with its factory-backed GT3 programs and participation in FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and IMSA events.
A Legacy of Innovation and Passion
Lamborghini’s decision to evolve the Super Trofeo platform with the Temerario reflects its ongoing commitment to motorsport innovation and customer engagement. Despite being primarily known for its road-going supercars, Lamborghini’s racing arm — Squadra Corse — has become a critical pillar of the brand’s identity, blending performance engineering with the emotional intensity of motorsport.
The new Temerario lineup (GT3 and Super Trofeo) underscores the brand’s dual focus on customer racing accessibility and factory-level competition, setting the stage for a dynamic motorsport future as Lamborghini transitions into its hybrid and electrified era later this decade.
Verdict: The Future of Lamborghini’s Racing DNA
The Lamborghini Temerario Super Trofeo represents the next evolution of Lamborghini’s motorsport philosophy — one that balances heritage, innovation, and customer passion. With its race-proven GT3-derived platform, aggressive new design, and unmatched power-to-weight ratio, the Temerario is poised to redefine the benchmark for one-make racing machines.
When it hits the track in 2027, it won’t just replace the Huracán Super Trofeo — it will usher in a bold new era for Lamborghini’s global racing identity, one built on power, precision, and pure Italian emotion.
