Auto123 gets in a first drive of the 2024 Lamborghini Revuelto, a quirky, hybrid hypercar that we love for its quirkiness and hybridity.
Gardiner, NY -- It’s not every day that Lamborghini goes big and delivers a punch that outmuscles even its own array of V12-powered hypercars. Sure, they’ll take their tried, tested and true Aventador platform and gussy it up with new styling, or produce a modernized take on a Lambo of old or maybe a drop-top of some kind.
Also helping n that front is a rear-wheel steering system that has the rear wheels swivel opposite the fronts at low speeds to help maneuvering in tight spots, and swivel the same way as the fronts at higher speeds for more stability. Effectively, we can shorten or lengthen the wheelbase just by turning the steering wheel.
Apparently, it’s not affected by rain, sleet or snow and considering that Bridgestone is busy building 355-section Blizzak winter tires that will fit the Revuelto, we tend to believe what Lamborghini is saying about that engine bay. Then there are the interior bits that have become Lambo hallmarks as of late – ultrabright digital gauge cluster, massive column-mounted paddle shifters and a windshield so raked the dash extends about three feet past the steering wheel. Oh, and a part we hope Lambo keeps no matter what: a start/stop button hidden beneath a fighter jet-like flip-up toggle. Oh yes.
That frunk, by the way, is deep enough to accommodate the charge cable’s case , but also a carry on-sized roller bag. Which isn’t too bad, considering how low this Lambo sits. You can plug in to charge, plus there’s a recharge mode built into the system – it joins hybrid and performance hybrid modes. The performance hybrid mode is only available in either Corsa or Strada drive modes, also selectable by a dial mounted on the right wheel spoke. The damper settings, steering response and throttle response are all dictated by the drive mode and in Corsa, you have to use the paddles to shift gears as there is no automatic option.
