Drive UAE Review: 2025 Lamborghini Revuelto
When it comes to redefining supercar performance, Lamborghini has never shied away from pushing boundaries. And in 2025, the Italian marque has done it again with the launch of the Lamborghini Revuelto: a revolutionary hybrid V12 that combines traditional power with modern electrification.
As the UAE continues to embrace cutting-edge luxury and sustainable performance, the Revuelto emerges as a fitting symbol of the future of supercars on the region’s roads.
Power and Engine
At the heart of the 2025 Lamborghini Revuelto is a powerful and electrifying engineering feat. It has a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine coupled with three electric motors, delivering a jaw-dropping total output of 1,015 CV (roughly 1,001 horsepower). Lamborghini refers to this configuration as an HPEV (High Performance Electrified Vehicle), marking the company’s first step into hybrid territory without sacrificing the raw exhilaration of a V12.
This hybrid beast launches from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.5 seconds, with a top speed exceeding 350 km/h. It features an all-new 8-speed dual-clutch transmission positioned behind the V12 engine, a layout that optimizes weight distribution. The inclusion of an electric motor on the rear axle and two on the front wheels enables torque vectoring for precision handling, giving drivers unmatched control.
Although the electric-only range is a modest 10 kilometers, it’s ideal for silent departures in urban environments, aligning well with the UAE’s increasing focus on sustainability without compromising luxury.
Exceptional Design
The Revuelto’s design is nothing short of breathtaking. Drawing inspiration from aerospace aesthetics, the car’s silhouette features aggressive, angular lines and Lamborghini’s iconic ‘Y’ shaped daytime running lights. The entire body is a sculptural masterpiece that looks fast even when standing still.
Compared to its predecessor, the Aventador, the Revuelto is a leap forward in aerodynamics, boasting a 61% improvement in aerodynamic efficiency and 66% more downforce. These enhancements result from intelligent airflow systems and active aerodynamics that adjust automatically to optimize stability and speed.
One of the most notable upgrades is the carbon fiber monofuselage chassis, which is not only stronger but 10% lighter than before. This use of advanced lightweight materials further enhances the Revuelto’s agility and performance.
An Interior That Feels Like a Cockpit
Lamborghini describes the Revuelto’s interior as a “Feel Like a Pilot” experience. The cabin is purpose-built for high engagement. It features a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, an 8.4-inch vertical infotainment screen, and a 9.1-inch display for the passenger. The triple-screen setup ensures that both the driver and co-pilot are immersed in the performance experience.
Craftsmanship meets customization inside the Revuelto. The cabin combines premium leather, Alcantara, and carbon fiber. Lamborghini offers over 70 color options for interiors, allowing each owner to tailor the cockpit to their taste.
Multiple Driving Personalities in One Machine
The Revuelto is not just a high-powered machine, it’s a highly adaptive one. It offers four main driving modes:
- Città (City) – All-electric mode for quiet, emission-free cruising through urban environments.
- Strada (Street) – A balanced mode offering comfort and performance for daily drives.
- Sport – Turns up the excitement with sharper throttle response and more aggressive handling.
- Corsa (Race) – Maximum performance for track-focused drivers, utilizing all power sources for blistering speed and torque.
In addition to these, each mode has three sub-settings (Recharge, Hybrid, and Performance), allowing a total of 13 customizable driving profiles. Lamborghini’s LDVI (Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Integrata) 2.0 system ensures these modes adapt in real-time, monitoring driver behavior and road conditions to optimize traction, handling, and power delivery.
Why the UAE Is Revuelto’s Perfect Playground
The UAE’s automotive culture thrives on superlatives; fastest, rarest, most exotic. The Revuelto, with its blend of tradition and innovation, fits seamlessly into this environment. Whether it’s gliding through Sheikh Zayed Road in electric mode or tearing up the track at Yas Marina Circuit in Corsa mode, the Revuelto delivers a driving experience tailored for UAE enthusiasts.
Priced from approximately AED 2.48 million to AED 3 million, the Revuelto is a serious investment. Yet, Lamborghini dealers in Dubai and Abu Dhabi report high interest, with many units already booked for the next two years. With limited global production, early ownership in the UAE adds both prestige and exclusivity.
Competitor Comparison: Does Revuelto Rule?
In the world of hybrid supercars, Lamborghini’s Revuelto faces stiff competition. The Ferrari SF90 Stradale, with its plug-in hybrid V8, offers similar output and track prowess, while the McLaren 750S focuses on lightweight agility with a twin-turbo V8.
However, the Revuelto retains something its rivals don’t: a naturally aspirated V12. It preserves the soul of traditional Lamborghini performance while boldly stepping into an electrified future. For many purists and collectors, that alone puts it in a league of its own.
Conclusion
The 2025 Lamborghini Revuelto is not just a new model; it’s a milestone. It celebrates 60 years of Lamborghini with a bold promise: that future performance doesn’t mean compromising on sound, power, or presence.
In a region where supercar culture is a lifestyle, the Revuelto proves that Lamborghini still owns the throne. And this time, it’s electric.
