Watch The Lamborghini Revuelto Hit The 'Ring For The First TIme

The hybrid supercar brings over 1000 hp to the Green Hell.

The Lamborghini Avetnador's successor in the Revuelto made its official debut back in March. Thanks to the team at CarSpyMedia on YouTube, we now have a chance to see the hybrid V-12-powered Lamborghini Revuelto hit the Nürburgring Nordschleife for the first time.

The Revuelto is only the sixth V-12 mid-engine flagship to come out of Sant'Agata Bolognese since the Miura kicked off the lineage in 1966. The Revuelto brings with it only the third V-12 engine in Lamborghini history, measuring in at 6.5-liters. Don't let the familiar capacity fool you, as everything from the block to the rotating assembly is new for this next-generation supercar. The naturally-aspirated motor provides 813 hp and can rev all the way up to 9500 RPM. Backing that engine is an oil-cooled axial flux electric motor at each front wheel, which draw power from a 3.8-kWh battery. The motors provide torque vectoring while boosting output to 1001 hp. An eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox handles shifts, now mounted behind the engine for the first time since the aforementioned Miura. Lamborghni says the Revuelto will do 0-62 mph in 2.5 seconds, and should hit 218 mph flat out.

Unleashing over 1000 hp on the Nürburgring would be a daunting endeavor, but the Revuelto seems to be quite composed around the track. There's only a hint of broken traction in the clip, though traffic on the course did keep the car from really pushing the pace. The new engine sounds good, albeit a bit quiet for a V-12 Lamborghini. The fact that there are no turbochargers muffling the exhaust note is a win regardless. It should be an exciting day when Lamborghini decides to send this hybrid supercar around the Nordschleife in proper anger. The Aventador SVJ managed to post a time of 6:44.97 with all of its aero adjustments. We’ll have to see how close the Revuelto can get to that with four-digit horsepower on its side.
