Lamborghini was, and still is, Ferrari’s biggest rival. It’s a brand that does things its own way, and proof of this is the unexpected powertrain under the hood of the all-new Lamborghini Revuelto. The 2024 Lamborghini Revuelto is set to replace the aging Lamborghini Aventador by merging Lamborghini’s old-school character with contemporary technology, marking a new era of hybrid supercars for the brand.
Believe it or not, under the hood of the Lamborghini Revuelto, you will find a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated Lamborghini V12 that is now paired with three electric motors. While everyone else is downsizing and going fully electric, Lamborghini hasn’t downsized – instead, they’ve added electric assistance for even more power. That’s the Italian way. The total power output for the all-new Raging Bull is a staggering 1,001 horsepower and 727 lb-ft of torque. So, how does the hybrid system of the Lamborghini Revuelto work? Two electric motors on the front axle power the front wheels, while a third electric motor assists the engine in driving the transmission. This leads to a mind-boggling 0-60 time of 2.5 seconds. The batteries are placed between the driver and passenger, and yes, the new Lamborghini Revuelto can even be driven as a pure EV. When it comes to speed, the Lamborghini Revuelto’s top speed exceeds 217 mph, making it one of the fastest hybrids on the market. For those who love the raw power of V12 engines, it's worth checking out our review of the Lamborghini Murcielago, which marked the beginning of modern-day Lamborghini V12s.
On the inside, Lamborghini has kept the fighter-jet-inspired cockpit but added a more high-tech twist. Materials like leather, Alcantara, and carbon fiber dominate the cabin, which features a driver-focused design. The main screen is a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, an 8.4-inch center touchscreen and a passenger-side 9.1-inch display for extra functionality. Naturally, these systems include all the modern necessities such as navigation, customizable driving modes, and performance data logging. The Lamborghini Revuelto isn't just about performance. The cabin showcases luxury and advanced tech, making it just as thrilling to sit in as driving.
Looks are subjective, but let’s talk about the facts. Lamborghini’s design philosophy has always revolved around sharp, geometric lines, and the 2024 Lamborghini Revuelto takes this to the next level. The entire body looks sculpted to cut through the air with its sharp edges and low but muscular stance. Lamborghini’s new Y-shaped LED signature design is a key element of the Lamborghini Revuelto and can be found in the front and rear lights. The best part, however, is that the Lamborghini Revuelto can change its shape on the go due to active aerodynamics. Various body parts, such as the rear wing, adjust on the fly to optimize downforce and reduce drag. This allows the car to remain planted during high-speed driving while staying efficient when cruising. The front splitter, underbody, and rear diffuser work harmoniously to improve airflow and create even more downforce. All the design ques on the Revuelto stay true to Lamborghini’s long history of awe-inspiring designs, as seen in previous models like the Lamborghini Aventador LP740-4 and the iconic Lamborghini Countach LP400.
Starting at around $500,000, the Revuelto is undoubtedly a serious investment, but with its power and innovation, it’s worth every penny. With such a high price tag, you might think the Revuelto will be a limited edition vehicle. While not officially labeled as a limited edition, Lamborghini will likely keep production numbers low to maintain exclusivity. However, there is no official word on how many units will be produced.
The Lamborghini Revuelto isn’t just a new supercar; it’s a bold statement of where Lamborghini is headed. By merging their iconic V12 engine with cutting-edge hybrid technology, the Revuelto balances old-school thrills with modern sophistication. It shows that while Lamborghini is willing to embrace the future, they do it on their own terms, without compromising performance or character. The result is a faster, sharper, and more advanced car than ever, yet still undeniably Lamborghini. With the Revuelto, the brand has set a new benchmark for hybrid supercars, combining electrification with the roaring heart of a Lamborghini V12.
