With three electric motors, a twin-turbo 4.0-liter flat-plane crank V8 spinning to 10,000 rpm, and a whopping 907 horsepower on tap, the Lamborghini Temerario is more than extreme enough, right? Not according to the people at 1016 Industries, who have decided to give the mid-engine supercar as aggressive a visual presence as its powertrain suggests, and from an aesthetic perspective at least, creating the STO variant Sant’Agata won’t. The Florida-based tuner has widened the baby Lambo, but also given it elements that call to mind that most extreme of Huracán variants, and the results are nothing short of spectacular.
Wings and Wideness In Carbon Fiber
On the fenders, 1016 Industries’ new kit, called the Vision Widebody and available in numerous materials including carbon fiber, adds louvered front wheel arch extensions, with negative space behind the wheels in line with the standard car’s side air intakes, which have been revised to include arrowhead-shaped elements to draw the eye to the flared rear arches. Ahead of the front wheel arch extensions, the body kit features upright intakes in line with the headlights, while the lower fascia is adorned with a new splitter that will make navigating speed bumps even more nightmarish.
The new hood is aggressively vented, and the rear is made more attention-grabbing with a fixed rear wing that calls to mind the Aventador SVJ. Naturally, the diffuser couldn’t be left stock, and 1016’s stylists appear to have taken inspiration from the Huracán Tecnica for their design. A carbon fiber snorkel reminiscent of the one on the 1016 Industries Revuelto, complete with new engine covers, completes the bodywork upgrades. Finally, a set of aftermarket wheels will make this supercar feel at home on the floors of the SEMA Show.
Lamborghini Itself Will Make the Temerario More Extreme
If you’d rather wait for the Temerario to be enhanced from the factory (and have no interest in the Alleggerita package at approximately $45,000), Sant’Agata itself has designs on an even more exciting V8 supercar, with Lamborghini‘s Chief Technology Officer hinting earlier in the year that a rear-wheel-drive Temerario may be in the works. Rouven Mohr also suggested that a non-hybrid Temerario could come into play, although this is unlikely, and he told Top Gear last year that making more than a thousand horsepower with the Temerario’s powertrain would be easy. Beyond that, we know that the Temerario’s power plant has been developed to last at least two life cycles, which means that after the inevitable special editions see the supercar out somewhere down the road, its successor will continue to have V8 power. In the meantime, 1016 Industries is here to satisfy those who crave maximum attention, though it should be noted that even without any performance upgrades, the Vision Widebody kit likely more than doubles the cost of that Alleggerita lightweight package mentioned above.
