Lamborghini at Goodwood Festival of Speed 2023: from race to road and beyond the tarmac

Sant’Agata Bolognese, 14 July 2023 – Celebrating its 60th anniversary as Goodwood Festival of Speed celebrates its 30th, Automobili Lamborghini welcomed owners, international media and fans at the UK event, who witnessed the unveiling of the Italian marque’s first hybrid endurance racing LMDh prototype yesterday followed by the start of the weekend’s hill runs from six Lamborghini super sports car models.

“Goodwood Festival of Speed provides a perfect environment for Lamborghini to continue our 60th anniversary celebrations in 2023,” said Chairman and CEO Stephan Winkelmann. “Goodwood is an ideal venue to present our exciting new endurance racecar project and for the debut dynamic appearance of our new flagship hybrid V12 Revuelto: our first new model as we head on our path towards electrification. Importantly, not only do we welcome our clients to Goodwood in true Lamborghini style, but the Festival of Speed is a wonderful opportunity to put our cars and brand in front of so many Lamborghini enthusiasts who visit the UK event over the four days.”

Lamborghini and its Squadra Corse motorsport department presented the SC63 on a dedicated stand next to the Lamborghini VIP Lounge, its moniker celebrating the year in which Lamborghini was founded, 60 years ago. Joining Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini, Chief Technical Officer Rouven Mohr and Head of Motorsport Giorgio Sanna on stage, were special guests including John Doonan, President of the International Motorsport Sports Association (IMSA), and Andrea Piccini, a founder and team principal of Lamborghini’s partner Italian race team Iron Lynx along with team owner Deborah Mayer, DC Racing Solutions Ltd. founder. From 2024 one car will campaign in the Hypercar class of the FIA World Endurance Championship including the 24 Hours of Le Mans, with a second car in the GTP class of the IMSA North American Endurance Championship Endurance Cup that includes the 24 Hours of Daytona and 12 Hours of Sebring.

Displayed outside the Lamborghini VIP Lounge, which welcomed over 350 Lamborghini owners and guests over the weekend, was the new Lamborghini Revuelto and Huracán Sterrato: in the Supercar class, the Revuelto made its first dynamic appearance ahead of its official driving launch later this year. The first V12 super sports plug-in hybrid HPEV (High Performance Electrified Vehicle) was joined in running up the hill by the V10 Huracán range: the new Sterrato with its special RALLY mode that takes it ‘beyond the tarmac’ on dirt and loose surfaces; the track-oriented STO; the multi-faceted Huracán Tecnica; and the open-top lifestyle Huracán EVO Spyder. From the First Glance paddock, the Urus Performante Super SUV demonstrated its sporty pace and handling as it joined its Lamborghini stablemates on track.

Celebrating the theme ‘innovators of their time’ was a line-up of special models including the game-changing V12 Miura and Countach: the first Super SUV the LM 002; the one-off Reventón; and the present-day Huracán Sterrato, displayed at the entrance way to the prestigious Drivers’ Club in conjunction with Lamborghini’s ‘hyper horology’ partner and official Goodwood Festival of Speed timing partner Roger Dubuis.

Listen To Lamborghini Revuelto’s V12 Engine For Five Minutes In This Video

The Revuelto is Lamborghini’s newest flagship supercar, offering incredible performance, a stunning design, and an exhilarating driving experience. It was introduced this year as the successor to the Aventador and is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V-12 engine combined with three electric motors, delivering a total of 1,001 horsepower. While the hybrid powertrain’s power output is impressive, it’s the sound of the V12 engine that truly captures the spirit.

This video on Varryx’s YouTube channel provides five minutes of pure sound from the V12 engine of the Lamborghini Revuelto. Whether it’s burbling at low speeds, percolating at idle, or ripping through the Nurburgring, its throaty baritone sound is distinct and characteristic of Lamborghini’s heritage from Sant’Agata Bolognese.

The Revuelto’s aggressive wedge-shaped bodywork harkens back to the angular shape of the Aventador and the twin grille front end of the Murcielago. Its low-slung, aerodynamic profile and scissor doors make it unmistakably Lamborghini and guarantee attention wherever it is parked. It’s a car meant to be seen, starting a parade wherever it goes.

However, it’s the engine that truly defines this car. Positioned mid-ship, the heart of the Revuelto is a 12-cylinder beast that roars up to a redline of 9,500 rpm. Paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, Lamborghini claims it can go from 0 to 60 mph in under 2.5 seconds and reach a top speed of 217 mph, given enough runway.

Unlike earlier Lamborghini models like the original Countach and its Diablo successor, the Revuelto offers a more luxurious driving experience. It has a larger, more comfortable interior than the Aventador, with some space behind the seats and a frunk large enough for a week’s worth of luggage. Keeping up with current trends, it features an infotainment touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. The dashboard is fully digital and even includes a display in front of the passenger for speed and other performance metrics.

Like all Lamborghinis, the Revuelto is named after a famous fighting bull, in this case, a particularly feisty Spanish bull from 1880. It’s a fitting name for Lamborghini’s latest supercar, which is expected to be available by the end of this year.
