Lamborghini Revuelto

The Lamborghini Revuelto is the successor to the Aventador and the first V12 hybrid the brand has built. Its 6.5 litre naturally aspirated V12 works with three electric motors for a combined 1001 horsepower, reaching 100 km/h in 2.5 seconds and a top speed beyond 350 km/h. The 8-speed dual-clutch gearbox and all-wheel-drive make that power usable rather than intimidating. This is the current halo car, and on Sheikh Zayed Road it has presence that almost nothing else can match.

Renting the Revuelto suits the driver who wants the absolute top of the Lamborghini range for a weekend rather than the AED 2 million plus it costs to own, before depreciation, insurance and servicing in the UAE. It is at home on a Dubai Marina evening loop, on the open stretches out towards Hatta, and along the wide sweep of Sheikh Zayed Road where the V12 finally has room. The scissor doors and exposed engine bay draw a crowd wherever you stop, whether that is JBR or a DIFC valet. For a milestone, a shoot, or simply a day you want to remember, this is the car people photograph.

The cabin seats two with a small front compartment for a weekend bag, so pack light and treat it as the experience it is. Carbon-ceramic brakes, launch control and the digital cockpit are all there, and we set the driving mode and walk you through the controls before you leave. Collection and delivery cover Palm Jumeirah, Business Bay, Downtown and the wider city. We deliver it to your door, full of fuel and detailed, and collect it when you are done.
