Lamborghini electrifies the V8

The successor to the Lamborghini Huracán has a completely newly developed high-performance hybrid drive. A 4-liter V8 with biturbo charging in combination with three electric motors will ensure exceptional driving performance in the super sports car, which is known internally as the 634. The eight gears of the second Lamborghini super sports car in the High Performance Electrified Vehicle (HPEV) series are shifted by a dual-clutch gearbox.

High-tech V8 engine
Lamborghini developed the 4-liter V8 biturbo from scratch in Sant'Agata Bolognese. On a blank sheet of paper, a drive system was created that even surpasses the current Huracán models in terms of performance and driving experience. The new V8 Biturbo is designed to combine the linearity of the rev development of the naturally aspirated ten-cylinder engine with the enormous power of a modern turbo engine. The new V8 delivers its peak output of 800 hp between 9000 and 9750 rpm, and the rev limit is an unusually high 10,000 rpm for a production engine.

Three electric motors
With the high-revving concept in combination with two turbochargers and three electric motors, this drive will be unique among road-legal super sports cars. Equally unique is the wide plateau of maximum torque of 730 Nm between 4000 and 7000 rpm. Thanks to the integration of an axial flux motor between the V8 biturbo and the dual-clutch transmission, the torque build-up is just as impressive as with a racing engine. The newly developed drivetrain also includes two additional electric motors on the front axle.

Still this year
The launch of the new Lamborghini 634 is planned for this year. The Huracán successor will then represent a further milestone in the Direzione Cor Tauri. This program defines Lamborghini's path towards the electrification of the entire model range. The project began in 2023 with the world premiere of the Revuelto and continued with the presentation of the Urus SE in April 2024.
