Key Takeaways

Lamborghini's Hybrid Sledgehammer Humiliates Ferrari

The Revuelto isn't Lamborghini's first hybrid. It's their first hybrid that matters.

A 9.4-second quarter-mile doesn't lie. Neither does 1001 horsepower or a 2.5-second 0-60 sprint.

V12 + Electrons = Ferrari Killer

Lamborghini's formula is brutally simple: take one naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12, add three electric motors, and create a hybrid system that doesn't feel like a compromise.

The combustion engine alone delivers 814 horses to shame anything with emission restrictions.

The trio of electric motors contributes another 187 hp when needed.

An 8-speed dual-clutch transmission handles the chaos without complaint.

The result? A quarter-mile time that embarrasses Ferrari's SF90 Stradale – the supposed hybrid hypercar benchmark.

Carbon Fiber Everything

The Revuelto's carbon monocoque is 10% lighter and 25% stiffer than the Aventador it replaces.

Dry weight sits at 1772 kg – impressive considering the hybrid hardware.

Lamborghini's engineers didn't just add batteries and call it progress. They rethought the entire chassis.

Stopping Power To Match

Massive carbon-ceramic brakes with 10-piston front calipers haul this beast down from its 217+ mph top speed.

Bridgestone Potenza Sport tires provide the grip.

The hybrid system's regenerative braking actually improves pedal feel rather than ruining it – a rarity in the hybrid supercar world.

The Numbers That Matter

  • 0-62 mph: 2.5 seconds flat
  • Quarter-mile: 9.4 seconds (faster than Ferrari SF90)
  • Battery capacity: 3.8 kWh lithium-ion
  • Combined torque: 595 lb-ft
  • Price: Approximately $600,000-$730,000

The Revuelto proves hybridization doesn't mean sanitization.

It's still unmistakably Lamborghini – scissor doors, angular design, and a soundtrack that makes Ferrari owners question their life choices.

The V12 lives on, now with electric assistance that makes it faster, not just cleaner.

Ferrari's SF90 had its moment. That moment has passed.
