The highly anticipated successor to the Aventador, the new Lamborghini Revuelto, has already sold out until 2026, according to the company’s CEO Stephan Winkelmann.
This plug-in hybrid supercar is the most powerful Lamborghini ever produced, boasting a new 6.5-litre V12 engine that delivers impressive performance: 0-62mph in 2.5 seconds, 0-124mph in under 7.0 seconds, and a top speed of over 217mph.
The V12 engine is complemented by three electric motors, with one integrated into the gearbox and two at the front powering each wheel, adding a total of 147bhp to the overall power output.
While the addition of electric power is a significant change for Lamborghini’s flagship model, Winkelmann stated that the overwhelming reception of the Revuelto proves that it was a worthwhile risk.
Early buyers, many of whom were existing Aventador customers, were given exclusive access to the Revuelto and were impressed by how the new technology blended seamlessly with the brand’s core values.
According to Winkelmann, “The combination of tradition and innovation is crucial for the success of the Revuelto. Customers were expecting hybridization and another V12, and these two elements came together perfectly. The unmistakable Lamborghini design, along with the engineers’ fantastic work in developing a new V12 despite emission regulations, contributed to the Revuelto’s appeal.”
Former chief technical officer Maurizio Reggiani, who played a key role in the Revuelto’s early development, mentioned that Lamborghini had to work hard to justify keeping the V12 engine amidst the Volkswagen Group’s shift towards downsizing and turbocharging.
As evidence of the strong demand, Winkelmann revealed that the order book for the Revuelto is already filled until 2026 and the technology of hybridization has been well received by both customers and the public.
