THE BREAKDOWN

The next Lamborghini Revuelto special version could be an SV.
A camouflaged prototype was spied during a high-speed test at the Nordschleife.
Aside from a fixed rear wing, the Revuelto had a redesigned front bumper.

With Bugatti recently cutting ties with the Volkswagen Group, Lamborghini is now the only supercar manufacturer that remains part of the German automotive conglomerate. Sant’Agata Bolognese comes off the back of a record year, with sales in 2025 surging to 10,747 cars. Rather than resting on its laurels, the Raging Bull plans several product launches this year at the Goodwood Festival of Speed (July) and during Monterey Car Week (August).

If this video from CarSpyMedia is any indication, one of the new Lambos slated for a 2026 release is a Revuelto derivative. While some expected a Roadster to lead the lineup expansion, it appears a higher-performance version will arrive first. The prototype may be fully camouflaged, but it’s impossible to hide the rear wing. It leads us to believe testing is already underway for a Super Veloce.

In the Aventador era, the SV preceded the S by nearly two years, so it wouldn’t come as a surprise for the Super Veloce to arrive first. The huge aero element at the back is a telltale sign Lamborghini is working on an SV, since an S is unlikely to feature this mighty fixed wing with a built-in third brake light.

Elsewhere, the front fascia appears to conceal a redesigned bumper with a diagonal fin bisecting the air intakes. Other incremental upgrades could be hiding under the full-body wrap, which sends a clear message: “Attenzione Macchina Veloce,” Italian for “Attention Fast Vehicle.” The prototype’s impressive pace during the Nürburgring test certainly lives up to the “warning” plastered in large script on both doors.

The SV is all but certain to receive an upgraded powertrain. Whether Lamborghini’s engineers will work only on the combustion engine, only on the electric motors, or on both sides of the powertrain remains unclear. However, given how emissions regulations are tightening, it seems highly unlikely that the Revuelto SV will ditch the hybrid component and go purely V12.

The regular Revuelto already posts mind-blowing output figures, delivering a combined 1,001 hp, with 814 hp from its naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine, capable of revving to 9,500 rpm. The potential is already there, considering the Fenomeno packs 1,065 horsepower.

Given Lamborghini’s modus operandi with a plethora of derivatives, never say never to a combustion-only Revuelto later in the supercar’s life cycle. A track-restricted special edition with an uncorked V12 and no electric motors, as a follow-up to the Aventador-based Essenza SCV12, isn’t completely out of the question.

Logic suggests such a hardcore version would only arrive closer to the end of the Revuelto’s life cycle. In the meantime, Lamborghini is about to expand its portfolio, and an SV seems like a safe bet. An open-air Roadster is unlikely to be too far behind, further broadening the appeal of one of the few surviving V12 models.

The Revuelto SV is certain to command a significant premium over the standard car, which already starts at a little over $600,000. Not that a surcharge will deter one-percenters from lining up to get the Super Veloce. Expect a limited production run, as the Aventador SV was capped at 1,100 units, with 600 coupes and 500 roadsters.

Motor1's Take: Even though Lamborghini’s flagship model caters to an exclusive crowd, we’re glad to see the brand thriving under the VW Group corporate umbrella. Some worried about parent company Audi toning things down after taking control in the late 1990s, but that clearly hasn’t happened.

You could argue that hybridizing all three models goes against what Lamborghini stands for, but even low-volume exotic brands must comply with increasingly strict emissions regulations in Europe and other parts of the world. As recently as August 2025, Revuelto product line director Matteo Ortenzi told us the V12 will live into the 2030s, adding that going hybrid was the only way to keep all twelve cylinders.
