What do we know about the Revuelto SV?
SV stands for ‘Super Veloce’ (or super fast), and Lamborghini has significant history with the badge on its iconic Diablo, Murcielago and Aventador sportscars.
SV models have increased power and less weight, with the Revuelto SV Lamborghini’s most powerful SV model yet.
The Revuelto SV uses the same 6.5-litre naturally-aspirated V12 and three electric motor set-up, but output has been boosted to 783kW and 1425Nm.
This is 50kW more power and around 400Nm more torque than the standard car.
The bulk of this power comes from the V12, but the electric motor set-up contributes 190kW.
It can accelerate from 0-100km/h in 2.4 seconds, and 0-200km/h in 6.7 seconds, going on to a top speed of more than 345km/h.
The Revuelto SV will directly compete with the Ferrari SF90 Stradale ($846,888) that packs a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 plug-in hybrid set-up, making 574kW and 800Nm.
Lamborghini’s new sports car has two front-mounted electric motors, with the other one fitted above an eight-speed automatic double-clutch gearbox.
How else is the Revuelto SV different from the standard Revuelto?
The car boasts a 7.3kWh lithium-ion battery, which is nearly twice as big as the unit in the standard Revuelto.
There is a new adjustable dampers suspension system that has been race-tuned, designed to improve agility and grip.
There are huge carbon-ceramic brakes capable of a 200-0km/h stop in just 116 metres.
The Revuelto SV delivers 80 per cent more total downforce than the Revuelto, aiding the car's increased track focus.
