Dubai Police has taken delivery of a Lamborghini Temerario, the hybrid supercar joining a fleet that already runs the Urus, Huracan, Aventador and Revuelto in the emirate's colours. The handover came through the force's collaboration with Lamborghini Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
Unlike a conventional pursuit vehicle, this Temerario will not chase down highway speeders. It sits with the Tourist Police Department, appearing in high-density areas and at major attractions across Dubai.
The car wears the signature white and green livery with special emblems and Police lettering in both English and Arabic. Brigadier Saeed Al Hajri, Director of the General Department of Criminal Investigation at Dubai Police, said the luxury patrol fleet combines an effective security presence with community and tourist engagement, and that the supercars help people feel safe while reinforcing the force's commitment to being close to the community.
In practice that means the Temerario is as much a public relations tool as a patrol car. Tourists and residents are encouraged to approach it and ask for a photo rather than expect a traffic stop, which fits the pattern set by the Urus, Huracan, Aventador and Revuelto before it.
907 hp, but no highway pursuits
The Temerario produces a combined 907 hp (677 kW / 920 PS) and 900 Nm (590 lb-ft) of torque from a twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 and three electric motors. Those are serious numbers by any standard, yet Dubai Police has deliberately kept the car away from highway pursuit work, reserving it for visibility duty instead.
That is a sensible use of the car. A 907 hp hybrid is far more valuable to the force as a crowd magnet at tourist landmarks than as a high-speed responder, and the existing fleet suggests Dubai has long treated its exotics this way.
Not the only police Temerario
Italy's Polizia di Stato has also unveiled a Temerario, a follow-up to the police versions of the Gallardo and Huracan. The Italian car has a working role rather than a ceremonial one: it is equipped for high-priority emergency missions, including transporting organs across the country, and is permitted to exceed the 130 km/h (81 mph) motorway limit when driven by trained officers.
Over 22 years of collaboration between the Italian State Police and Lamborghini, those rapid-response units have transported more than 200 organs. The two cars show opposite philosophies for the same model: Dubai's is a white and green showpiece for tourist engagement, Italy's a blue and white working tool built for urgent cross-country runs.
