Lamborghini Revuelto Revealed; 1015 HP, V12 Engine, Three Electric Motors And All-Wheel Drive

In the marque’s 60th anniversary year, Lamborghini has unveiled Revuelto, its first super sports V12 hybrid plug-in HPEV (High-Performance Electrified Vehicle). The Revuelto gets a naturally-aspirated V12 engine combined with an eight-speed, double-clutch transverse gearbox and three electric motors.

An output of 1015 hp is delivered from the combined power of an entirely new combustion engine together with three electric motors, alongside a double-clutch gearbox that makes its debut on a 12-cylinder Lamborghini for the first time. The three electric motors are powered by a lithium-ion high-specific power (4500 W/kg) battery pack that also supports a fully-electric drive mode. The new Revuelto combines these attributes to deliver performance figures at the peak of its segment: acceleration from 0-100 km/h in only 2,5 seconds; 0-200 km/h in less than 7 seconds; and a top speed of more than 350 km/h.

Carbon fiber, the principal structural element within the new car, is used not only in the monofuselage and frame but also in all elements of the bodywork apart from the doors and bumpers. The extensive use of carbon fiber and lightweight materials, combined with the potent engine power, contributes to achieving the best weight-to-power ratio in the history of Lamborghini: 1,75 kg/CV.

In terms of design, the Revuelto takes inspiration from previous Lamborghini V12 legends. The new car also defers to the inimitable proportions of the Diablo and the floating blade on the rear fender, while the muscularity and inclined front of the Murciélago is evident. The rear is a tribute to the hybrid V12. The fully-exposed longitudinal engine highlights the mechanical heart of the Revuelto, visually connecting it to the double hexagonal exhaust surmounted by the geometrically profiled wing, framed by headlamp clusters with the Y-shape light signatures.
