It just learned a new trick. Lamborghini brings its naturally aspirated V12 into a new era with three electric motors and 1,015 CV. Subject — Lamborghini Revuelto.
There are easier ways to enter the electric age.
Lamborghini chose to bring the V12 with it.
The Revuelto pairs a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 with three electric motors to produce a combined 1,015 CV. It isn't Lamborghini walking away from its past. It's Lamborghini figuring out what comes next.
The Engine
Twelve cylinders still matter.
The heart of the Revuelto is a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12, joined by three electric motors and an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission for 1,015 CV in total.
The interesting part is what electrification is being asked to do here. It isn't replacing the character of the V12. It's adding another layer of performance around it — filling the gaps, sharpening the response, and letting the twelve cylinders stay exactly what they've always been.

Design
It looks like it arrived from somewhere else.
Aerospace, translated into sheet metal
The design language reads more aerospace than automotive — Y-shaped lighting, surfaces pulled tight over aerodynamic forms, the V12 left exposed at the back, and scissor doors because some traditions don't need updating.

The Cockpit
The view from inside.
Built around the person in the left seat
Inside, everything angles toward the driver. Digital instrumentation sits behind the wheel, a central display handles the rest, and the passenger gets a screen of their own. Driving modes reshape the car from quiet to unhinged — the controls stay where your hands already are.
The interesting part of the Revuelto isn't simply that Lamborghini built a hybrid.
It's that the company found a way to introduce electrification while keeping the V12 at the center of the experience. For a brand whose identity has been tied to dramatic engines for generations, that's a much more interesting story than efficiency alone.
Why It's on Our Radar
Some machines don't need much explanation.
WakeLuxz is interested in machines that make people stop, look and want to know more.
Sometimes it's the technology. Sometimes it's the design. Sometimes it's the sound. And occasionally, it's all of them at once.
The Revuelto is one of those machines.
