What Happened
Automobili Lamborghini presented the new Temerario to the Italian State Police at its Sant'Agata Bolognese headquarters. Italian Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi attended the ceremony, hosted by Chairman and CEO Stephan Winkelmann and the company's Board of Directors. Prefect Renato Cortese, Central Director of the traffic, railway and special units police, represented Chief of Police Vittorio Pisani.
The super sports car will be used for the most important services, including the emergency transport of organs and medical supplies, joining Lamborghini cars already in police service. It is powered by an all-new 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine paired with three electric motors, for a total output of 920 CV. Lamborghini calls the car a new milestone in its technological history, saying the combination of performance and efficiency can accomplish the most delicate missions in the shortest possible time. The new Temerario Polizia pairs technological excellence with social value, placing the brand's performance and innovation at the service of protecting citizens.

During the event, the book 'I motori della Polizia' was also presented. Produced by the Institutional Communications Office of the Italian State Police and published by Giunti Editore and Giorgio Nada Editore, the volume traces the history of vehicles that supported the institution's activities over the decades. Through cars, motorcycles and special vehicles, the book recounts a significant part of the history of the Italian State Police and of the country itself.
Why this matters
A super sports car in a police fleet isn't for show; it serves as a high-speed tool for urgent organ and medical-supply transport. Lamborghini and the Italian State Police have partnered since 2004, and six police Lamborghinis have supported more than 200 organ transport missions, with some helping save lives. The new Temerario, with 920 CV, extends this life-saving service.
