Chronology
PredecessorLamborghini Aventador

The Lamborghini Revuelto (Spanish pronunciation: [reˈβwelto]) is a mid-engine plug-in hybrid sports car produced by the Italian automobile manufacturer Lamborghini. It was officially unveiled on March 29, 2023 as a successor to the Aventador.[5] The Revuelto’s namesake is a Spanish fighting bull that fought in the arena of Barcelona in 1880s.[6]

As of July 2023, the Revuelto has gone into full production,[7] with the first units having been delivered in the last quarter of 2023.[8]

History[edit]

Logo

The Revuelto was unveiled in an online event on March 29, 2023.[5] The car is the first of the brand to adopt a plug-in hybrid propulsion system. While models like the Sián FKP 37 and Countach LPI 800-4 had adopted a mild form of a hybrid propulsion system, mainly to improve low speed drivability, the Revuelto is the first Lamborghini to adopt a true form of a hybrid drivetrain.[9]

Design[edit]

Exterior[edit]

At the front, the Revuelto includes a set of brand new Y-shaped day-time running LED lights with the main headlights located at the top corners of the running lights.[10] The car also features Lamborghini's ALA (Aerodinamica Lamborghini Attiva) system, which is said to be 80% lighter than regular sports car hydraulic systems having redesigned vents underneath the headlights and behind the scissor doors.

At the rear, the Revuelto features an active aero spoiler which produces more downforce than its predecessor. The tail-lights feature the same Y-shaped design as the headlights.

The Revuelto has its exhaust tips positioned between the taillights, with the rear spoiler being shaped around them. Another feature setting the Revuelto apart from its predecessors is the completely exposed engine bay, similar to the Bugatti Veyron and Chiron.

Interior[edit]

The Revuelto features increased interior space, improving comfort for its occupants. It also has a new hybrid driving mode called "Città," Italian for "city."[5] This driving mode reduces the power-output of the car for daily usage and extra comfort while driving on urban roads. The car's redesigned instrument cluster shows the state of charge and energy recovery. It also displays the music being played by the infotainment system and fuel usage which separates on the left and right sides of the main display. The car features a small display located in front of the passenger that monitors the speed, selected gear and the car's state.

Specifications[edit]

Body[edit]

The Revuelto has a monocoque composed entirely of carbon fibre, making it 10% lighter than the Aventador's chassis.[11] Torsional rigidity has been improved by 25% and the front frame is 20% lighter.[11][12] Lamborghini has used carbon fibre in the construction, and the back of the chassis contains high-strength aluminium alloys.[13]

Powertrain[edit]

The Revuelto features a new 6.5-liter V12 engine, complemented by three electric motors that produce a combined power of 746.5 kW.[14][10]
