The $604,000 Lamborghini Revuelto Hybrid Is an Apex Predator: Review
The brand’s pinnacle supercar can offer you 1,001 horsepower—and, shockingly, a stealth mode.

I first climbed into the $604,363 Lamborghini Revuelto to drive it from my house in Hollywood 340 miles north to Carmel, California, a scenario that got me obsessed with the car’s silent electric-only mode. That’s the real value of the minimal electric miles in this hybrid monster: When you’re leaving or arriving, you can slink around without the screams of the engine alerting everyone to your presence. It’s the default when you turn on the car, if the battery is charged. I crept out of the driveway without annoying any neighbors in a canyon that echoes even the quietest back-deck conversation. A win indeed.
It didn’t end there. At every gas stop (there were several—this car loves petrol) along the sun-scorched route up through California farmland, all the dudes at the other pumps posed nonchalantly as they waited to hear the engine burst. When I pulled away in silence, they shifted uneasily, mystified. Byeee, boys!
