Watch: new Lamborghini Revuelto, the 1,001bhp V12 hybrid Aventador successor

Here it is, the long awaited Aventador replacement. It is, inevitably, a plug-in hybrid, but it’s one that takes the possibilities of the format and does wild and wonderful things with it.

We’re talking a naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12, aided by three electric motors, two of which are mounted on the front axle, the third integrated into the new eight-speed dual-clutch transmission.

All of that means the Revuelto is good for a total power output of 1,001bhp, a top speed of 217mph and 0-62mph in just 2.5 seconds. Yes, the line between Hypercar and Supercar has been well and truly blurred.
