Gautam Singhania, chairman and managing director of Raymond Group, seems to have taken a U-turn on his stance against Lamborghini. After years of criticising the iconic brand, Singhania was spotted driving a model of the Italian supercar manufacturer recently. The car that the Indian businessman rode in Mumbai was Lamborghini’s brand-new Temerario hybrid supercar.
In a YouTube video shared by CS12 Vlogs on their channel, Singhania was captured on camera driving Lamborghini’s Rs 6 crore worth Temerario. His vehicle was followed by the popular billionaire’s security convoy, featuring a Toyota Fortuner and multiple Mahindra Scorpios with the police sticker. The billionaire Raymond Group CEO sat behind the steering wheel before smoothly taking his
vehicle into a building’s parking lot.
Lamborghini Temerario
Temerario is Lamborghini’s latest supercar, which has succeeded its previous Huracan model. By the looks of it, Singhania has opted for the car’s Blu Astraeus shade with contrasting silver alloy wheels. The model would’ve cost him in the range of Rs 6 crore. The Temerario carries a more prominent and intimidating design than the Huracan it has replaced. The exteriors of the car boast of LED headlights, hexagonal LED DRLs and a front bumper.
Since it’s an entry-level supercar, it doesn’t have the iconic scissor doors as the V12 model. But it carries 20-inch front and 21-inch rear alloy wheels. Enabling the car’s high functionality is its 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 motor, which is capable of producing 800 bhp and 730 Nm torque and redlines at 10,000 rpm.
Gautam Singhania vs Lamborghini
The billionaire being spotted with the Lamborghini Temerario would be a huge surprise for the followers of the Raymond Group CEO. Singhania has been famously bashing the brand online ever since it launched its flagship V12 engine-powered Revuelto. The feud began in 2023 after Singhania took out the Revuelto for a test drive and complained over an electrical failure and breakdown that occurred on the Mumbai Trans-Harbour Link (Atal Setu). Following the incident, the car was transported back to the Lamborghini dealership.
I'm shocked at the arrogance of India Head @Agarwal_sharad and Asia Head Francesco Scardaoni. Not one has reached out to even check what the customer issues are.@lamborghini #StephanWinkelmann#Lamborghini #LamborghiniIndia #Revuelto #LuxuryCars #Supercars #ExoticCars…

Having questioned the reliability of the multicrore supercar, the businessman claimed he had heard of at least three other cases of Revueltos breaking down within 15 days of delivery.
Singhania expressed his shock over the “arrogance” of the brand, claiming no one from its authorities had reached out to the customers. Lamborghini did not publicly respond to the Raymond Group MD.
