Lamborghini Revuelto '24
To be sold in Brand Central.
"The long-awaited successor to the Aventador model family series is a renaissance of the Lamborghini V-12 flagship."
Throughout Lamborghini's history under the VW group, the Aventador was their best and longest-selling model, having been on the market for 11 years, and the secret to its success was not only the charms of its exotic appeal, but also its handling and ease of customization. With constant tweaks to the new V-12 engine being made here and there with every derivative model, the arrival of the extremely exclusive Sian FKP 37 was a sign for things to come with the next generation of Lamborghini flagships as it was a hybrid and featured a supercapacitor system.
In 2022, the chapter of the Aventador series was over with the Ultimae, being the final generation of Lamborghini V12 cars to feature a purely naturally-aspirated V-12, and a year later in 2023, the Revuelto (codename LB744) was born, and was also created to celebrate Lamborghini's 60th anniversary. The name translates to either "a mix" or "scramble" in Spanish, but was also the name of a fighting bull in the 1880's that was equally as ferocious and put up a great show whenever it was exhibited.
It was common for the next Lamborghini flagship to take inspiration from the most extraordinary special edition model, and the Revuelto is no exception; taking cues from the Sian FKP 37 in both design and functionality, only pushing it even further to the extreme. For reference, it was the Reventon that led to the final design of the original Aventador LP 700-4.
A new 6.5-litre V-12, codenamed the L545, which was an evolution of the Aventador's L539, was put in place, producing 814 hp and 535 ft-lb of torque, only this time, it is paired with three electric motors, two on the front, and one on the rear. producing up to 187 hp and 60 ft-lb of torque, all in all, providing a combined 1,001 hp and 595 lb-ft of torque, putting it on borderline hypercar territory, and is up there with the likes of the Ferrari SF90 Stradale and McLaren Speedtail.
It features the same all-wheel drive drivetrain as before, only this time, the seven-speed gearbox from the Aventador was switched out in favor of a new eight-speed dual-clutch that could handle all this extra power, more than enough for it to go from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 2.5 seconds, and achieve a top speed higher than 220 mph, presumably up to 250 mph.
The chassis was still made completely out of carbon fibre, and uses Lamborghini's special double-wishbone suspension on all four corners and carbon ceramic disc brakes to ensure maximum handling, sharpness and responsiveness to ensure that it is alert and easily predictable with its cornering and braking, but as a consequence due to its hybrid nature, the weight of the Revuelto was made even heavier by up to 1,772 kg.
It was said that the Revuelto is capable of up to 13 driving modes, the most notable of which is the city mode which disengages the V-12 engine and relies on the electric motors alone, therefore making this the "de-facto" first front-wheel drive Lamborghini.
The styling of the Revuelto continues the recurring theme of the iconic wedge shape, and Lamborghini's design language elements of triangular and hexagonal shapes, as well as Y-patterns all over it. The design is also based around the concept of past, present and future as well, as the styling also harkens back to the original Murcielago and Aventador LP 700-4, but with new elements such as a partially exposed engine block to aid in cooling, and the massive dual-exit exhausts on the rear. Being the V-12 flagship that it is, Lamborghini haven't forgotten about the iconic scissor doors either, still being a standard feature even to this day.
Overall, the Revuelto is the very definition of a renaissance for the modern Lamborghini V-12 flagship, and both modernity and futurism is at the very heart of this extreme exotic, while paying attention to the roots of the company. The car was also said to be immensely popular to the point where it was even sold out for the first two years of its production, right before the car was unveiled to the world.
