With dawning of a new era of hybridization in the automotive industry, more and more manufacturers are integrated into electrical propulsion in their lineups. Light-hybrid systems are well installed, and more beneficial plug-in hybrid systems are better and better. Even Lamborghini participated in the latest wave of hybridization, which could come as a surprise for something.
This is because the Outlandish supercar of this Italian company is never considered frugal, or is never an attempt to be thrilling. They always thank fuel-like fuel economy for their 10- and 12-cylinder engines. And his congenital ability to make those people behind the wheel does not help them as incompetently as possible, either does not help.
But by God, this is a reality 2025 Lamborghini RevultoTop V12-Operated Model of Italian brand. Its plug-in hybrid system is mainly to increase adventure, but surprisingly, it can also return the respectable fuel economy, with no downside for its magnificent driving experience. Here is how $ 612,858 (before expensive options) The value of Lambo slots was hybrids of high-demonstrations in our current golden age.
Lamborghini gets out of its way to call her first plug-in hybrid HPEV (high-demonstration electric vehicle) to call Revulto, and it is really: a 3.8 kwh battery sends juice to two AC motors on front axle, and is associated with another one-e-speed deulle-cloak gearbox. By default, powerful Lambo comes into life without firing its engine, instead to send power to front motors (there is no reverse gear), as well as offer up to five miles of EV-only range.
It may seem comical less, but considering just 30 miles of normal driving can fully return it, it is more useful than one. If I was allowed more mileage for my press loan, I would like to run the battery down on the highway, firing the engine until it was recharged, and repeated the process until the tank was reduced.
Its plug-in hybrid system is mainly to increase adventure.
Eventually, it is rated in 23 mpge-12, which is combined without hybrid assistance. The latter barely beats its Entador predetermined And this means that this cheese taxes $ 4500 gas guzler to not meet the minimum fuel efficiency standards. Many PHEVs cannot claim that honor.
He said, I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to come close to 23 MPGE. Generally traffic-free, at a distance of 15 miles of Los Angeles with radar cruise control, at a distance of 75 mph, I was easily able to exceed 21 MPGE. Not only this, it preferred EV propulsion to pass slow cars, while the engine was very quiet at the eighth gear at 2,000 rpm. Despite some important road noise, it was resting on the cruel supercar highway. But in the San Gabriel Mountains of California, to get out and infection for Twisier Blackkatop High, it quickly became anything.
As Revulto is the leading V12 supercar of Lamborghini, glasses are crazy: its 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 shouts up to 9,500 rpm and produces 814 horsepower and 535 lb-but torque. Three motors contribute up to an additional 296 hp and 364 lb-ft, which reaches the extreme total production of 1,001 hp and 1,044 lb-faces torque. You will never know from behind the wheel that this thing weighs 4,290 pounds, as 0-60 mph is only 2.5 seconds, and comes in less than 150 10.
If the main reason for hybridization is pure enthusiasm, then I am here for it. Launching the line, you feel that the motors at least punches the motors as the V12 reves increases, and once the tach needle reaches the midrange, all the hells become wonderful in the amazing electron-flow and fuel-dust harmony.
Revuelto does not return in its search to fill the cabin, and many city blocks with brilliant V12 music in both directions. It is an endless entertaining, even lightly raising between 3,000 and 4,500 rpm, regardless of mode and RPM. I had never had an o’clock in my ears because I had filled its 22.5-chalon fuel tank twice twice at the end of a week.
When ripping the line, push back into the seat is actually something special. I have received the honor and privilege of running some thrilling hardware during my tenure in motor vehicle journalism, but it takes the cake to an all-out savagari. The wastes basically continue to effort towards hooliganism crimes, and once it is time to slow down, some light gearbox whain and fast Puck The noisy butter smooth, the GT3 race for car-like downsfs. It is all intoxicating.
The Bologneis brand did not only make Revulto a faster and optional thrifter. The active aircraft sitting on top of the rear deck is 66 percent more efficiently to help cut through the air, as well as bleeding at speed. Carbon fiber and aluminum include its chassis and bodywork, which makes it 10 percent lighter and 25 percent more rigid than its predecessor. Combined with a mixture of adaptive decorations and double-wisdom independent suspension, its rectangular battery pack was called transmission tunnel, all-wheel drive, plus mid-engine layout, used to talk, it is a monster in corners.
Easily, switching between dumper and motor settings, as well as drive mode, was quite easy because they were all made on the steering wheel. I have never been a great fan of complexity here, but the method of Lamborghini does a very good job.
This thing is a monster in the corners
Steering had decent weight under cornering and adequate communication, Tack-Sharp front-end response, and at the top, the correct proportion for high-demonstration driving. It was very good in the sport seat of the Lambo, it was very important (it was very important, because the headroom is at a high premium for long people), nine and three hands, and a collision like a collision of corners at a breathtaking speed. While the power delivery was ruthless, it was quite easy to subdue with smooth input and thoughtful downshifts, which were not often in the form of other foreign fare for the engine-high redline of the engine.
The end result was reaching the top sites of the mountain well -tried in a short time in a short time. All experienced the quality of a very good ride in their stifer or soft dumper mode, also how much engineering engineering took place in the chassis dynamics of this animal.
2025 Lamborghini Revulto is anything opposite that I had run before. I may not fit very well inside, the seat may have been designed for one leg less than me, but Goddam it was perfectly worth it.
Not only was there a scream sensation, the 6.5-liter V12 was somewhat beautifully unique behind me, but the catch of a chassis and athleticism behind all the plays was quite powerful. Then, its unique mixture of 12-cylinder Ferocity Plus hybridization created a good time to make a harmonious cheerful time. Even it returned the commendable fuel economy numbers for a supercar, if I wanted … but I did not most, because its consumption proved to be one of the most intelligent financial investments ever.
