What to Know Before Buying a Lamborghini Revuelto

What to Know Before Buying a Lamborghini Revuelto

Lamborghini's 1,001 hp hybrid V12 flagship is young, complex, and in demand. A grounded guide for buyers entering the Revuelto market.

The Lamborghini Revuelto is the brand’s mid-engine flagship and the successor to the Aventador — and, critically for a buyer, its first series-production plug-in hybrid[1]. That last fact shapes the whole purchase. You are buying a V12 Lamborghini, but you are also buying a high-voltage hybrid system, and the diligence has to cover both.

The machine

The headline hardware: a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 paired with three electric motors, for a combined 1,001 hp and 783 lb⋅ft of torque[1]. The V12 alone contributes 814 hp, with the motors adding 187 hp[1]. Drive goes through an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel drive, delivering 0–60 in 2.5 seconds and a top speed of 217 mph[1]. Underneath is an all-new carbon-fiber monocoque, roughly 10 percent lighter than the Aventador’s with 25 percent greater torsional rigidity[1]. A 3.8 kWh battery supports several drive modes, including a Città setting for low-speed urban use[1].

Versions to track

The record lists several variants beyond the standard car: the Opera Unica, the Miura 60° edition limited to 99 units, the Revuelto SV, and the Fenomeno[1]. On a young flagship, limited editions like the 99-car Miura 60° are where scarcity premiums concentrate — verify authenticity of any special edition through Lamborghini directly.

Buyer diligence

  • Factory paperwork and delivery documents — on a car this new, gaps in the file are a question mark, not a rounding error.
  • Hybrid system verification. Have the battery and electric drive system checked by an authorized dealer; this is not a car for a generalist PPI.
  • Warranty transfer confirmed in writing before money moves.
  • Market position. Production began in July 2023[1], so most cars are barely run in — be skeptical of prices far above or below the pack without a documented reason.
A Revuelto purchase is two inspections in one: the V12 Lamborghini, and the plug-in hybrid wrapped around it.

The car itself, by every account in the record, is the most capable series flagship Lamborghini has built — more power, more rigidity, and less weight in the structure than the Aventador it replaced[1].
