On December 6, 2023, Lamborghini will introduce the Revuelto supercar to the Indian market. The model, which debuted globally in July this year, is the first in the Lambo range to be equipped with an electric drivetrain thanks to its plug-in hybrid system. For those unaware, the Revuelto is the Aventador's true successor. Recently, the carmaker also commenced the deliveries of its other popular supercar, the Huracan Sterrato in India. The Sterrato was launched with a price tag of Rs 4.61 crore (ex-showroom) and its 5.2-litre V10 unit allows it to accelerate from a halt to 100km/h in 3.4 seconds. Meanwhile, let's take a closer look at the upcoming Ruvelto's features, design, and other crucial details.

Lamborghini Revuelto: Powertrain and Performance
Let's start with the most important aspect of the model, its powertrain. For the Revuelto, Lamborghini has kept the naturally aspirated V12 engine, but it is a whole new engine that was created from the ground up. It has a 6.5-litre unit with an optimal torque output of 725Nm at 6,750rpm and 813bhp at 9,250 rpm. The engine's redline is set at 9,500 rpm. The new engine is 17 kg less than the V12 in the Aventador. It only weighs 218 kg. A brand-new eight-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox is paired with the engine. Now that the engine is behind the unit, the transversely mounted transmission is in place. Moreover, the transmission is now located transversely, behind the engine.
The gearbox is coupled to three electric motors in addition to the engine. One is located on the gearbox, and two are on the front axle. The Revuelto comes with an all-wheel drive. The conventional reverse gear is lacking. Rather, torque vectoring is made possible by the front electric motors, which also serve as the reverse gear.
A 3.8 kWh battery pack located between the centre console powers the electric motors. Furthermore, the rear motor doubles as a generator and starter. The battery pack may be fully charged in just 30 minutes, with an electric current of up to 7kW. While six minutes is all it takes for the V12 engine to fully charge its battery pack. The current total power output is 1,015bhp. The Lamborghini Revuelto can accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in under 2.5 seconds, with a top speed of over 350km/h.
Lamborghini Revuelto: Exterior Design and Interior Layout
In terms of design, the Aventador's styling has been carried over into the Revuelto. The car has a wedge-shaped silhouette with Y-shaped accents all around. There are also the recognisable scissor doors on both sides, new aggressive front and back bumpers, along with 20 and 21-inch front and rear wheels. Aero efficiency has also received the majority of design attention; in comparison to the Aventador Ultimae, the Revuelto's front aerodynamic load has increased by 33 per cent, while the rear load has increased by 74 per cent.
Coming to the interior, a 12.3-inch digital cockpit, an 8.4-inch centre display, and a 9.1-inch passenger-side display make up the infotainment system. The Revuelto will also be the first Lambo to feature a fully sophisticated advanced driver-assistance system that uses radar, cameras, and numerous other sensors. Apart from this, other features include rear cross-traffic alerts, adaptive cruise control, lane change warnings, and active lane departure warnings.
