Limited to 1,963 units, the Revuelto SV adds more electric power, motorsport-derived suspension, upgraded brakes and a new Pilota drive mode
Lamborghini has unveiled the Revuelto Super Veloce (SV), a more extreme and track-focused version of its flagship V12 hybrid supercar. Making its global debut during Monterey Car Week, the Revuelto SV builds on the standard Revuelto with higher system output, revised chassis hardware, upgraded braking technology and a more aggressive aerodynamic package.
Production will be limited to just 1,963 units, with the number chosen as a reference to Lamborghini’s founding year, 1963. The limited production run is also expected to make the Revuelto SV especially attractive to the brand’s most loyal customers and collectors.
At the heart of the Revuelto SV remains Lamborghini’s naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 engine. However, the three electric motors have been upgraded, lifting total system output to 1,065 hp. That represents a 50 hp increase over the standard Revuelto and gives the new SV an even stronger performance focus.
The updated powertrain is paired with the same eight-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox and all-wheel-drive layout as the standard car. Lamborghini claims a 0-100 kmph time of 2.4 seconds and a 0-200 kmph sprint in 6.7 seconds, while top speed remains above 345 kmph.

Lamborghini Revuelto SV Gets More Powerful Hybrid Assistance
The standard Revuelto already combines a high-revving V12 engine with electric assistance, but Lamborghini has increased the contribution of its three electric motors for the SV.
The naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 continues to produce 825 hp and revs to 9,500rpm. The three electric motors, meanwhile, now produce a combined 299 hp, up from 190 hp in the regular Revuelto.
Together, the hybrid system develops 1,065 hp.
The increase in electric output is important because it adds to the Revuelto SV’s acceleration and overall performance without requiring a complete redesign of the petrol engine.
Lamborghini has also equipped the car with a new sports exhaust system, intended to reinforce the car’s more aggressive character.
Despite the additional output, the company has also concentrated on reducing weight. These measures improve the power-to-weight ratio to 602.4 hp per tonne, compared with 571.4 hp per tonne for the standard Revuelto.
That improvement allows the SV to make better use of its increased power and contributes to its focus on high-performance driving.
Performance Claims Put the Revuelto SV in Supercar Territory
Lamborghini claims the Revuelto SV can accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in just 2.4 seconds.
The car takes 6.7 seconds to reach 200 kmph from a standstill, highlighting the advantage of the additional electric assistance and improved power-to-weight ratio.
Top speed remains above 345 kmph, keeping the Revuelto SV firmly within the highest-performance category of production supercars.
While straight-line performance remains a key part of Lamborghini’s identity, the SV has been engineered primarily around improved track performance.
That becomes clear through its revised chassis, aerodynamic changes, braking hardware and new electronic driving systems.
New Pilota Mode Brings a Motorsport Focus
One of the most important electronic additions to the Revuelto SV is the new Pilota drive mode.
Designed as a motorsport-derived setting, Pilota provides a custom state of tune intended for track driving.
The system works alongside a bespoke five-stage traction-control system that can adapt its behaviour according to track conditions and tyre wear.
This is an important development because track performance is not simply about maximum power. The ability to manage traction as conditions change can make a significant difference to how consistently a high-performance car can deliver its potential.
The five-stage system is intended to provide a more flexible electronic setup, allowing the car to respond differently depending on how much grip is available.
GT3-Derived Dampers Improve Agility and Grip
The Revuelto SV’s chassis has received substantial attention.
The car uses manually adjustable dampers derived from GT3 racing technology. Lamborghini says these changes deliver a 17 per cent increase in agility and a 10 per cent improvement in lateral grip compared with the standard Revuelto.
Those figures point towards a clear change in philosophy.
The Revuelto SV is designed not merely to be faster in a straight line, but to respond more sharply through corners and offer a more controlled experience on a circuit.
Manual adjustment of the dampers also reinforces the track-focused character of the SV, giving experienced drivers greater control over the car’s setup.
Upgraded Carbon-Ceramic Brakes
Lamborghini has also revised the braking system for the Revuelto SV.
The car receives new CCM-R carbon-ceramic discs measuring 420mm at the front and 410mm at the rear.
According to Lamborghini, the braking hardware delivers 11 per cent higher peak deceleration, 23 per cent better heat dissipation and a 12 per cent reduction in brake-disc temperatures.
These improvements are particularly relevant during track driving, where repeated heavy braking generates substantial heat.
Better heat management can help maintain braking performance during sustained hard use, while higher peak deceleration should contribute to shorter stopping distances.
The lower brake temperatures also indicate that Lamborghini has focused on consistency rather than simply increasing the size of the braking components.
Hockenheimring Lap Time Highlights Track Ability
The mechanical changes have produced a measurable result on the track.
Lamborghini says the Revuelto SV completed a lap of Germany’s Hockenheimring in 1 minute 41.6 seconds.
According to the company, that makes it the second-fastest officially recorded production car at the circuit.
The lap time provides an important indication of what the SV is intended to achieve.
Its greater agility, improved lateral grip and upgraded braking system appear to work together with the increased power output to produce a significantly more capable track machine than the standard Revuelto.
The result also adds credibility to Lamborghini’s claim that the SV is a genuine performance-focused derivative rather than simply a limited-edition styling package.
More Aggressive Aerodynamics for the SV
The exterior design has been substantially revised to match the car’s more performance-oriented character.
At the front, the Revuelto SV gets a new diffuser with red accents, while the rear features a revised diffuser and a large fixed rear wing.
The wing is one of the most obvious visual differences between the SV and the standard car.
Lamborghini has also used extensive carbon-fibre trim pieces to reduce weight and add a more motorsport-inspired appearance.
Exclusive SV liveries, badges and contrast accents further distinguish the limited-production version.
The aerodynamic package is designed to contribute to the car’s stability and cornering performance, complementing the mechanical upgrades underneath the bodywork.
Lightweight Wheels and Bridgestone Potenza Race R Tyres
The Revuelto SV rides on lightweight centre-lock alloy wheels.
The wheel sizes are 20 inches at the front and 21 inches at the rear.
These wheels are wrapped in bespoke Bridgestone Potenza Race R tyres developed for the car.
The tyre choice is particularly important for a track-focused supercar because the available grip directly affects acceleration, braking and cornering ability.
Combined with the improved chassis and traction-control system, the specialised tyres help the SV make better use of its power.
The centre-lock wheel design also adds to the motorsport-inspired character of the car.
Interior Gets Racing-Focused Changes
Although the basic cabin layout remains largely unchanged, Lamborghini has introduced several revisions to reflect the SV’s more extreme personality.
The most obvious addition is a set of new racing bucket seats.
The interior also features SV-specific badging and an expanded range of upholstery and colour combinations.
This allows buyers to personalise the cabin while maintaining the motorsport-inspired identity of the model.
Unlike a conventional luxury-focused Lamborghini, the Revuelto SV places greater emphasis on the driver’s connection with the car and the demands of high-performance driving.
Limited Production Adds Exclusivity
Lamborghini plans to build only 1,963 Revuelto SV units.
The production number is a deliberate reference to 1963, the year Lamborghini was founded.
Such a limited production figure places the Revuelto SV firmly within the collector-focused end of the supercar market.
The restricted production run is also expected to make the model particularly desirable among Lamborghini’s most loyal customers and collectors.
For Lamborghini, limited-production performance derivatives provide an opportunity to combine engineering development with exclusivity and long-term brand appeal.
How the Revuelto SV Differs From the Standard Revuelto
The standard Revuelto already occupies Lamborghini’s flagship position with its V12 hybrid powertrain and all-wheel-drive layout.
The SV takes that foundation and pushes it further in several areas.
Power rises from the standard model’s output to 1,065 hp, thanks primarily to the more powerful electric motors.
The chassis gains GT3-derived manually adjustable dampers.
The braking system receives larger and more heat-resistant CCM-R carbon-ceramic discs.
The car also gains a motorsport-focused Pilota mode, bespoke traction control, a large fixed rear wing and track-oriented Bridgestone tyres.
Weight-saving measures further improve the power-to-weight ratio.
Taken together, these changes create a car that is focused much more heavily on circuit performance.
A Supercar Designed Around Track Performance
The Revuelto SV demonstrates how Lamborghini is using hybrid technology to enhance rather than dilute the character of its flagship V12.
The internal-combustion engine remains naturally aspirated, high-revving and central to the driving experience.
The electric motors provide additional power and responsiveness, helping push the combined output beyond 1,000 hp.
At the same time, Lamborghini has invested heavily in the chassis and braking systems to ensure that the additional power can be used effectively.
That makes the SV more than a faster version of the Revuelto.
It is a comprehensive performance derivative with changes across the powertrain, suspension, brakes, tyres, aerodynamics and electronic systems.
Collector Appeal Meets Racing Technology
The Revuelto SV’s limited production number and specialised hardware position it at the intersection of collector appeal and motorsport-inspired engineering.
For collectors, the limited run and connection to Lamborghini’s history could make the model especially attractive.
For enthusiasts, the car’s lap-time focus, adjustable suspension, advanced braking system and dedicated Pilota mode are likely to be its most important features.
The result is a model that seeks to satisfy both sides of Lamborghini’s modern supercar audience.
The Lamborghini Revuelto SV represents a major escalation of the flagship V12 hybrid’s performance capabilities.
Its 1,065 hp combined output, 2.4-second 0-100 kmph acceleration claim and top speed of more than 345 kmph make it an extreme performance machine even before the chassis upgrades are considered.
The bigger story, however, is how comprehensively Lamborghini has reworked the car for track use.
GT3-derived manually adjustable dampers, improved lateral grip, upgraded CCM-R carbon-ceramic brakes, bespoke traction control, the new Pilota mode and racing-focused tyres all point towards a car designed to deliver a sharper and more consistent experience on a circuit.
The 1,963-unit production run adds another layer of exclusivity, while the aggressive aero package and racing-oriented interior complete the transformation.
The Revuelto SV therefore represents more than a cosmetic special edition. It is Lamborghini’s most focused interpretation yet of its V12 hybrid flagship — one that combines traditional naturally aspirated V12 character with additional electric power and serious motorsport-derived hardware.
