Lamborghini continues to serve and protect the people of its home country Italy by supplying yet another vehicle to the Italian State Police, and it is none other than the Temerario, the brand’s latest “baby” supercar that replaced the Huracan and hit the assembly line last year (2025) at the Sant’Agata Bolognese factory locally.
The new cop car was presented at the brand’s headquarters in the presence of Chairman and CEO Stephan Winkelmann, the company’s Board of Directors, and the Minister of the Interior Matteo Piantedosi. Prefect Renato Cortese and the Chief of Police and Director General of Public Security Prefect Vittorio Pisani also joined the ceremony.
Differentiating the Lamborghini Temerario cop car from the rest of the units driving on local roads is extremely easy. After all, is says “Polizia” on the doors, and the vehicle was dressed in the typical police colors, combining blue and white, and features the Italian flag on certain elements. It also has emergency lights on the roof, and probably additional lights that are not visible in the images that the Raging Bull recently shared online, which you can view in the gallery above.
So, what is the duty of a full-blown exotic machine with the Italian State Police? Well, the car will be “used for the most important services, including the emergency transport of organs and medical supplies.” And it will join other existing Lamborghini cars in the police fleet, as the partnership between the Italian State Police and Automobili Lamborghini began more than two decades ago, back in 2024.

That is when the first Lamborghini Gallardo was supplied to the police fleet, and it carried its first organ transport in September of the same year. Subsequently, it was joined by the Gallardo LP 560-4 and by the Huracan, and since 2023, the Italian State Police has also had a Lamborghini Urus in its fleet, and it is not just any Urus, but a Performante. This means 0-62 mph (0-100 kph) in 3.3 seconds, a top speed of 190 mph (306 kph), and 657 bhp (666 ps/490 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque produced by its twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine.
In total, Lamborghini supplied six vehicles over more than 20 years to the Italian State Police, and the automaker notes that “in several cases, the Lamborghini police cars have helped save human lives as well as participating in more than 1,500 road safety education events promoting safe driving.” During the above mentioned event, the book “I motori della Polizia” was presented. The book traces the history of the cars that have supported the Institution’s activities over the decades.
In terms of power, you are looking at 907 bhp (920 ps/677 kW) in total and a peak thrust of 538 pound-feet (730 Nm) in the Lamborghini Temerario. That is how much its electrified 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine produces. The mill can be revved up to a whopping 10,000 rpm. The powertrain allows the brand’s new “baby” supercar to accelerate to 62 mph (100 kph) in just 2.7 seconds, which is 0.2 seconds slower than the punchier, faster, bigger, and more expensive Revuelto, and the supercar’s top speed is 213 mph (343 kph).

The unveiling of the cop car follows hot on the heels of the new Lamborghini Temerario Tricolore, which is a bespoke creation unveiled recently at the Monterey Car Week that honors the Gallardo LP 550-2 Tricolore from 2011. It features a colorful exterior mixing Blue Marinus Shiny and Bianco Monocerus with black elements and red brake calipers, and also sports the Italian flag on it. Inside, it has Rosso Alala stitching, Nero Ade upholstery, a bespoke silhouette of the car integrated into the rear cabin trim, Tricolore lettering, and a few other goodies.
Unlike the Lamborghini Gallardo LP 550-2 Tricolore, which was rear-wheel drive, the new Temerario Tricolore retains its all-wheel drive plug-in hybrid powertrain, so it has no changes compared to the regular Huracans. The special Gallardo mentioned above came with 542 bhp (550 ps/440 kW) from its naturally aspirated V10, hit 62 mph (100 kph) in 3.9 seconds, and maxed out at 199 mph or 320 kph.
Designed by Mitja Borkert, who also signed the Porsche Boxster 987, Panamera Cross Turismo, second-gen Cayenne, Macan, and Mission E, as well as some Lambos, the Temerario entered production in 2025. It is currently offered strictly as a two-door coupe, though a two-door convertible is in the making as we speak. The model has lent its underpinnings to the Audi Nuvolari, which boasts 987 bhp (1,001 ps/736 kW), needs 2.6 seconds to hit 62 mph (100 kph) from a standstill, and can keep pushing up to 217 mph (350 kph).
Production of the Audi Nuvolari will start at the end of the year, and the first deliveries should commence in the first half of 2027. Only 400 units of this model will see the light of day, and each one is understood to start at roughly $500K.
