Lamborghini Revuelto

Overview

Think of the all-new Lamborghini Revuelto as a combination of styles stretching back decades. It blends the big-nosed Murcielago with the hips of a Diablo. The scissor doors and wedge shape come from the Countach. There are plenty of nods to the past, but unlike any bull before it, the Revuelto is a plug-in hybrid. Its mid-mounted V-12 gets help from two electric motors on the front axle and a single motor mounted to an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission for a total output of 1001 horsepower. While this may cause some purists to wail, Lamborghini promises that additional electrification only enhances the supercar experience.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

This bull is no ballerina when it comes to performance. The mid-mounted 814-hp 6.5-liter V-12 is naturally aspirated and screams up to a 9500-rpm redline. Of the three electric motors integrated into the powertrain, two drive the front wheels, while the third is integrated into the eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and assists the V-12 gas engine on the rear axle. The total output of this powertrain is 1001 horsepower, the most of any Lamborghini ever. That's also the most horsepower from any plug-in hybrid, knocking the 986-hp Ferrari SF90 Stradale from the top spot. We haven't tested a Revuelto yet, but Lamborghini claims it can reach 62 mph in just 2.5 seconds and reach a top speed in excess of 217 mph.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

There are only two seats in the Revuelto because, well, the Italians put 12 cylinders where the backseats would normally go. The Revuelto is no ordinary car. Its cockpit is more space race than automobile. There are four rotors on the steering wheel that control drive modes, and additional buttons activate the turn signals as well as initiate the launch control. Lamborghini says the Revuelto has more headroom and legroom than the Aventador, which shouldn't be difficult. There's space behind the seats to fit a single golf bag as well frunk space that can easily accommodate two carry-on luggage bags.
