Lamborghini Revuelto SV Packs 1,050 Horsepower and a Racing Mode That Changes Everything

Lamborghini just raised the ceiling on what a production V12 hybrid can do. Unveiled during Monterey Car Week, the Revuelto SV arrives as the most powerful road car the company has ever built, pairing a familiar 6.5-liter naturally aspirated engine with a more capable electric system and a fixed rear wing that transforms how the car sticks to the road.

Power increases to a combined 1050 horsepower and a staggering 1051 lb-ft of torque. That is due to the V12 still producing a decent 814 horsepower at 9250 rpm, revving just as far as the normal Revuelto, all the way up to 9500. A more dense 7.3 kilowatt-hour battery provides additional power to the three electric motors. What was the result? These motors can provide a little more assistance and maintain a faster pace for longer periods of time, with Lamborghini claiming up to four times better consistency when pushing the car to its limits repeatedly.

The numbers speak for themselves: according to official claims, the 0-62 mph dash now takes 2.4 seconds and the 0-124 mph run takes 6.7 seconds. If you’re wondering how fast it’ll travel, the official top speed is more than 214 mph. Despite the larger battery and more aero features, the dry weight only adds a few hundred pounds, thanks to the significant usage of carbon fiber components and some optional lightweight pieces.

One of the most noticeable modifications is the work done on aerodynamics, and it’s a game changer. The standard car’s dynamic rear wing has been replaced by a fixed device that packs a powerful punch. Not only is it a noticeable cosmetic improvement, but it also represents an 80% increase in downforce over the standard Revuelto and an incredible 10% increase over the previous Aventador SVJ. The car’s front end is also impressive, with a deeper splitter, angled fins, and a Gurney flap all working together to generate enormous downforce increases. The good news is that front-end downforce has doubled, which may come in handy while cornering at high speeds.

Lamborghini also managed to enhance the balance of downforce and drag by 60%, making life much easier for the driver. There have also been changes to the chassis. The ordinary car’s adaptive dampers have been replaced with manually adjustable ones from the company’s GT3 racing program. The results are impressive: a 17% boost in agility and a 10% increase in lateral grip, making the car a lot more enjoyable to drive. Wheels have also been updated, with center-lock units measuring 20 inches up front and 21 inches in the back, and they are wrapped in Bridgestone’s top-of-the-line Potenza Race R tires, which were developed exclusively for the SV. These beauties provide more grip and traction when you’re laying down the power.

Finally, the brakes have been given some TLC. New CCM-R Plus carbon-ceramic discs measuring 16.5 inches up front and 16.1 inches at the rear have been fitted, complete with a more efficient carbon construction and increased ventilation. The result is an 11% greater peak deceleration rate and a 23% better heat rejection, which should keep the brakes from overheating under load. Braking temperatures drop by about 12% under load, which can only be good for the driver. To top it all off, an updated inertial sensor system sends real-time motion data to the brake controller, allowing it to modulate pressure over curbs or during trail braking with greater accuracy.

Inside the cabin, a small red knob on the steering wheel that you spin clockwise will activate Pilota mode, which sits perfectly alongside the more known settings, Strada, Sport, and Corsa, which will almost certainly remain the go-to selections for most people. Pilota, on the other hand, enables a snappy 5-stage traction-control system derived from Lamborghini’s GT3 cars. You can choose how much of it you want; do you want the system to correct everything that is wrong, or do you want to have fun and see where the car goes? The stability and ABS systems have also been improved, allowing for a more precise reaction to bumps and curbs while still letting you to have fun and slide the car around when you want.

The Revuelto SV’s production is limited to 1963 units, which coincides with the company’s founding year. The first deliveries are scheduled to arrive in early 2027. One thing we do know is that the price will be exorbitant, perhaps far higher than the standard Revuelto, which was already a costly prospect.
