00:00All right, for over a decade, the Aventador defined the scream of a Lamborghini V12.

00:05It was raw, it was untamed, and it was perfect. But Lamborghini just threw all that out the window.

00:12This is the Rivolto. And it's not just a new car, it's the most radical shift in Lamborghini's

00:19history. They took their sacred, screaming V12 and did the unthinkable, they hybridized it.

00:25So, does adding three electric motors and a battery pack create a better supercar,

00:30or does it kill the soul we all fell in love with? We drove it to find out,

00:34and what we discovered in the first five seconds will completely change what you think about the

00:38future of supercars. So, what exactly are we looking at? This is the Lamborghini Rivolto,

00:46the long-awaited, direct successor to the legendary Aventador. For over 60 years,

00:51Lamborghini has built its reputation on breathtaking, naturally aspirated V12 engines.

00:57That engine was the heart and the voice of every flagship they've ever made.

01:01But the world is changing, and for the first time ever, Lamborghini has plugged in.

01:06The Rivolto isn't just a new model, it's the first chapter in Lamborghini's hybrid future.

01:12It's designed for a new kind of supercar buyer, one who demands brutal performance but can no longer

01:17ignore the pressures of efficiency and technology. This launch is a monumental moment.

01:23It's the answer to a question every car enthusiast is asking,

01:26can a hybrid hypercar still deliver that raw, emotional thrill?

01:30In this review, we're going to tear back the layers on its wild new design,

01:34step inside its fighter jet cockpit, and most importantly,

01:37we're going to dissect that revolutionary powertrain.

01:40Stick around, because by the end of this, you'll know if the Rivolto is a worthy heir to the throne,

01:45or if it's a compromise that loses the magic.

01:48Let's start with the shape.

01:51Lamborghini calls this a spaceship, and honestly, they're not wrong.

01:55Every line, every vent, is ripped straight from a Countach poster but launched into the future.

02:00The front is all sharp angles and Y-shaped LED daytime running lights.

02:05Move to the side, and the profile is pure aggression,

02:08with a massive side air intake that feeds the hungry V12 behind you.

02:12But the real party is at the back.

02:15Forget four exhaust pipes, the Rivolto has six arranged in a hexagon that looks like a jet engine.

02:21It's a design that doesn't just turn heads, it snaps them.

02:25And then you open the dihedral doors and step into what Lamborghini calls the pilot's cockpit.

02:30It feels less like a car and more like you're strapping into a fighter jet.

02:35Right in front of you is a fully digital, configurable 12.3-inch cluster.

02:39But the game changer is the central 8.4-inch vertical touchscreen of first for a Lamborghini

02:45that controls everything from the climate to the drive modes.

02:48And just in case you needed more tech, there's a 9.1-inch screen for the passenger to see your speed and g-forces.

02:54They've swapped the old, dramatic flip-up toggle covers for a modern, but still incredibly cool,

03:00array of switches to select reverse, neutral, and drive.

03:04But let's talk about the heart of the beast, because this is where the magic and the controversy happens.

03:09Lamborghini kept its legendary 6.5-liter V12.

03:14But now, it's naturally aspirated, revs to a screaming 9,500 revolutions per minute,

03:20and makes 814 horsepower all on its own.

03:23Then, they added not one, not two, but three electric motors,

03:27two up-front driving each wheel independently,

03:29and one integrated into the new 8-speed dual-clutch transmission.

03:33The total system output?

03:36A mind-bending 1,001 horsepower.

03:38The result?

03:400-60 mph vanishes in a soul-crushing 2.4 seconds.

03:45It's not just fast, it's teleportation.

03:49The electric motors give you instant torque,

03:51filling in any gap the V12 had at low revs.

03:54And through a corner, the front axle torque vectoring makes it feel like it's on rails.

03:59It's a technical masterpiece.

04:02But it's not all perfect.

04:04With a battery, there's weight.

04:06And while Lamborghini has done an incredible job keeping it down,

04:10you can feel the mass and sudden direction changes.

04:13The steering is razor-sharp, but it's not as organic as the old hydraulic systems.

04:18And that brings us to the biggest question of all, the sound.

04:22With the hybrid system, is that iconic, pure V12 scream still there?

04:26Or has it been diluted?

04:29And with all this insane, space-age technology, what is the price of admission to this new era?

04:35The number is even more shocking than the performance, but we'll get to that right after the break.

04:40This is it.

04:42The moment of truth.

04:44Forget the spec sheets and the tech deep dives.

04:48The real question is, what happens when you put your foot down?

04:52This isn't a quiet, sterile electric car.

04:55And it's not just a roaring V12.

04:58It's both, working in a brutal symphony.

05:01The electric motors punch you in the chest the instant you touch the pedal,

05:04no lag, no waiting for revs to build.

05:07Then, as the speed climbs, the natural aspiration of that V12 takes over,

05:12screaming to its 9,500 revolutions per minute redline in a way that feels even more urgent,

05:17more frantic than the Aventador.

05:19But the true turning point, the moment this car truly becomes a revolution, is in the corners.

05:25The torque vectoring from the front motors is witchcraft.

05:29It doesn't just grip, it actively pivots the car,

05:32pulling you out of a corner with a ferocity a rear-wheel drive car could only dream of.

05:36It feels, telepathic.

05:39Like it's reading your mind and correcting your mistakes before you even make them.

05:43So, does it lose the soul?

05:46No.

05:47It redefines it.

05:49The raw, analog drama is gone, replaced by something more calculated,

05:53more intelligent, and frankly, more devastatingly effective.

05:56It's a supercomputer with a savage heart.

06:00It's better in almost every single measurable way.

06:04But that leaves us with one final, haunting question.

06:07In becoming a perfect machine, has it lost the flawed, emotional character that made us fall

06:12in love with Lamborghini in the first place?

06:15The answer to that, is where things get really interesting.

06:18So, what's the final verdict?

06:22The Lamborghini Revuelto isn't just a new model, it's a new benchmark.

06:26It is, without a doubt, the most capable and technologically advanced supercar Lamborghini has

06:31ever built.

06:32Let's be clear about who this is for.

06:34If you're a collector who craves the raw, unfiltered, and sometimes unruly character

06:39of the old V12s, the Aventador will always hold a special place.

06:44But if you want to experience the absolute pinnacle of performance, a car that is faster,

06:48more agile, and more usable every day, then the Revuelto is not just an upgrade, it's a

06:53revelation.

06:54The pros are staggering, that earth-shattering 1001 horsepower, handling that defies physics,

07:00and a cabin that finally feels from this century.

07:02The cons?

07:04Its staggering price tag, well over half a million dollars, and a slight loss of that

07:09purely analog, mechanical soul.

07:11In the US market, this is a statement.

07:15It proves that hybrid technology isn't a compromise for the eco-conscious, it's a weapon for the

07:19ultra-performance enthusiast.

07:22This is the direction every supercar brand will now be forced to follow.

07:26The Revuelto doesn't just wear the Lamborghini badge, it redefines it for a new era.

07:30It's a breathtaking achievement.

07:34But what do you think?

07:36Does the future of supercars look exciting, or are we losing the raw soul that made them

07:40special in the first place?
