The guys at AutoTopNL recently took a Lamborghini Revuelto for a drive on their favorite stretch of tarmac – a derestricted section of the German Autobahn. The aim was simply to see what top speed the Revuelto could reach on a public highway without actually breaking the law.
The following video provides a first-person view of the Revuelto doing high-speed runs on the Autobahn. After multiple runs, the driver finally manages to reach a VMax of 369 km/h, which is just shy of 230 mph.
Last month, Novitec did a similar high-speed run with the Revuelto equipped with their custom exhaust. They also managed to clock a top speed of over 200 mph.
The Revuelto is powered by a 6.5-liter V12 hybrid powertrain. The ICE alone develops 813 hp @ 9250 rpm and 535 lb-ft of torque. The engine is mated to an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission along with three electric motors – two on the front axle and the third paired with the gearbox. The combined output is 1001 hp.
What is the point for something like this?
What could possibly go wrong?
Irresponsible.
No, it didn’t. The speedometer is highly overrated like the cars from this manufacturer. The real speed was 214mph.
