What the 2027 Revuelto SV Adds Over the Standard Car

The 2027 Lamborghini Revuelto SV keeps the standard car's naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V-12, three electric motors and eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, but the combined system now produces 1,050 horsepower and 1,051 pound-feet of torque. That is an increase of 49 horsepower and 7 pound-feet over the standard Revuelto, and Lamborghini says it makes the SV the most powerful production Lamborghini ever.

Much of that extra output appears to come from the electrical side: the SV's battery capacity has grown from 3.8 kWh to 7 kWh. Lamborghini's factory numbers put 0-62 mph at 2.4 seconds and 0-124 mph at 6.7 seconds, though Car and Driver says the car may prove even quicker in testing.

Aerodynamics and brakes have also been overhauled. A front bumper fin directs cool air to the brakes and improves brake cooling by 12 percent, while a fixed rear wing with double-plane edges generates 80 percent more downforce than the standard Revuelto. The car also adopts manually adjustable dampers, centerlock wheels and Brembo CCM-R carbon-ceramic brakes designed for more repeatable performance without a warm-up phase.

What the SV Treatment Signals for Lamborghini's Hybrid Flagship

Why the Bigger Battery Is the Real Performance Story

The V-12 architecture remains unchanged, so the added output is largely an electrification gain. Increasing battery capacity from 3.8 kWh to 7 kWh gives the three electric motors a larger buffer for full-power deployment. That suggests Lamborghini is treating the SV not as an engine overhaul but as a more aggressive calibration of the Revuelto's hybrid system. It also implies that owners may notice different charging and energy-management behaviour compared with the standard car.

The SV Package Moves the Revuelto Closer to Track Duty

The hardware changes point in one direction: repeatable circuit performance rather than purely street-friendly character. Manually adjustable dampers give suspension control, the 12 percent brake-cooling improvement helps manage repeated hard stops, and the Brembo CCM-R discs are aimed at consistent response from cold. Add 80 percent more downforce and center-lock wheels, and the SV appears positioned as the more focused, race-inspired version of Lamborghini's hybrid flagship.

That interpretation is still based on Lamborghini's own claims. Until independent road tests verify acceleration, braking and real-world manners, the scale of the improvement over the standard Revuelto remains provisional.

What Potential Revuelto SV Buyers Should Focus On

  • The power gain is mostly electrical, not a new engine. The 49-horsepower increase accompanies the jump from 3.8 kWh to 7 kWh of battery capacity, so the SV may feel different in energy use and charging rather than in basic V-12 character.
  • Expect a firmer, more track-focused car. Manually adjustable dampers, a fixed high-downforce rear wing and CCM-R carbon-ceramic brakes suggest the SV is tuned for repeatable circuit laps. Buyers should pay attention to ride quality and cold-brake response before assuming it behaves like the standard Revuelto.
  • Treat the quoted acceleration with some caution. Lamborghini claims 2.4 seconds to 62 mph, but Car and Driver expects independent testing may be quicker. Wait for instrumented numbers when comparing the SV with rivals.
