I have been testing cars and writing about the car business for more than 25 years. My career began in daily newspapers and developed into editorship of two automotive magazines.
Lamborghini’s first step towards electrification is here in the Revuelto, with an incandescent plug-in hybrid, V12 hypercar, complete with three electric motors due here later this year.
It has a tiny 3.8kWh battery pack that can run the Revuelto on pure electric power for just 12km, but the trick is that the plug-in hybrid never runs out of battery, even after a dozen laps of a racetrack. Another way to spend more is to get lost in the 400 water-based paint colours and more than 40 interior trim codes - and then there are the totally custom ideas that so many customers ask Lamborghini to create for them.The Lamborghini Revuelto hypercar won’t be crashed by NCAP but it’s likely to be safer than any Lamborghini hypercar before it.
Where the Aventador was a traditional Lamborghini V12, with the gearbox reaching in to the passenger compartment, the Revuelto switches things up. Effectively, the electric motors are here to support the V12 when they need to, help out with cornering muscle and to regenerate, but it’s more complex than that.
Though Lamborghini hasn’t released economy figures yet , it is claimed to be 35% better than the Aventador.For as long as there have been Lamborghinis, there have been V12 engines. It’s a rite of passage at the top end of the Lamborghini line, dating back to its very first car. But the prevailing impression is not what we expected. From the Countach to the Diablo, from the Murcielago to the Aventador, all of Lamborghini’s V12s have kept mere mortal drivers away from their ultimate handling limits with a mix of awe, intimidation, fear and heavy controls.It’s absurdly fast and loud, but it’s also as consistent and agile as an Miata, and not much more intimidating.
