It was also Lambo's first road-going model to surpass 1,000 horsepower, putting it in contention with rivals such as the Ferrari SF90 Stradale and the comparatively bargain supercar, the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X.Before it roars down the road with its head-turning, wedge-shaped body and V12 soundtrack, the Revuelto's life begins at Lamborghini's headquarters and factory in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy. A video from FRAME offers a glimpse of how the Raging Bull supercar is made – from configuring it through the brand's Ad Personam program, similar to Ferrari Tailor Made, to final assembly.The Birth of the BullThe assembly process combines manual craftsmanship with automation. Technicians arrange pre-impregnated carbon-fiber sheets inside precision molds by hand, while CNC machining centers carve raw metal into finished mechanical parts. Large modular sections, including complete rear subframes, are built offline and transported by automated guided vehicles rather than fitted to the car piece by piece.AdvertisementAdvertisementTechnicians also use ergonomic, zero-gravity lifts to handle hybrid powertrain components. Powering the Revuelto is a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 paired with three electric motors, delivering a combined 1,001 horsepower. Because the Revuelto can operate in electric mode, its transition to V12 power presented a new sound-engineering challenge. Testing inside a semi-anechoic chamber helps preserve the recognizable Lamborghini V12 character popularized by the Aventador and Murciélago.During the design stage, designers still use traditional tape drawings. In the upholstery department, artisans use industrial sewing machines to create details such as Lamborghini's signature hexagonal quilting.Several checks are conducted throughout assembly to ensure quality, including blue-light 3D scanners and coordinate-measuring machines that verify components and body panels. Completed examples also undergo tactile audits by senior inspectors before delivery.FRAME/YouTubeFace of LamborghiniU.S. deliveries of the Lamborghini Revuelto began in May 2024, with the model carrying a starting price of more than $600,000. It sits at the top of the series-production lineup, above the Urus – the brand's best-selling model – and the Temerario, the successor to the Huracán, which traded the V10 for a hybridized twin-turbo V8.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe Italian factory could eventually produce additional Revuelto variants and special editions. These reportedly include a more track-focused Revuelto expected to revive the SV badge. Reports also point to a Revuelto Miura Edition celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Miura, widely considered the world's first supercar.LamborghiniView the 3 images of this gallery on the original articleThis story was originally published by Autoblog on Jul 27, 2026, where it first appeared in the News section.
