spoke to someone at that dealership who told me 2026 / 2027.

I was told the same. The owners who received an invite for the preview will be getting the early cars and we all know they're going to be selling them for huge profits.

I was also told that if you want a roadster or a SV variant you'll need to own the coupe first. This is not a dealer thing but instead it's coming directly from the factory.

Well the information I was given at the launch event said there will be no roadster of this car at all so not sure who is giving you this info.

I know someone that attended the launch at the factory and he was told the roadster will be a MY26 car. Not a chance in hell Lamborghini doesn't milk this platform.

Duff info always finds certain ears

Posted on the Lamborghini forum...

"The Roadster variant Lb745 is in development and will start test drives after one year,now the factory prepare LB634 for road tests in the next months, maybe end of the year"

I assume LB634 is the Huracan successor.

Not a lot being said here about the new car

is that because we were all expecting something better

I think it hasn’t been that well received - definitely no where near the admiration the Aventador got on its release back in 2011. Maybe it’s because it looks a bit similar and we were expecting something drastically different.

Definitely seems to be the sentiment across the world, its styling is not disliked per-se as the Aventador is loved but the fact it does not have its own identity & with its added weight, wont be much different in performance.

£300k (nearly new) Aventador vs £500k Aventador (Reveulto) is a difficult one for me to buy into.

9,250 rpm could well be enough of a difference though, thats got to sound incredible?

V12 Lamborghini is all about styling and sound and its struggling but not struggling on the styling if you’re happy with another Aventador… sound i think could well become its differentiator and selling point.

Certainly looking forward to seeing and hearing it…

I have heard the same.

It's the 9500rpm v12 that caught my interest. I know in a Porsche gt3 or rs that 8k to 9k is glorious. I can only imagine with a V12

I am like you an Aventador owner, and I personally decided to have a biased opinion against the Revuelto.

For instance, a simple fact: the designer of the Aventador was Italian, the designers of Revuelto are German. What would you think will look the best?

Also, I think the Revuelto will be about 0.3 s. faster on 0-100, can we really feel it?

…and the Revuelto lost the amazing push rod suspension of the Aventador,

…and its height has increased, which makes it look less exotic,

Or how do you keep the engine clean, since the hood does not protect it?

[TP321]

It’s going to be interesting to see how it sounds

Is an oscilloscope the only way or are there other methods?

Is Push Rod really amazing? In my experience, the ride quality is terrible unless you're on the track.

And the height increased by 1 inch, lol. I didn't notice it in person.

Yep! my Aventador was designed by an Italian, there's no way would I favor the new one !

and yes it does look more exotic being low and wide

mine was so low I couldn't see it over the garden wall and thought someone had pinched it

Was at the 60th anniversary event at Silverstone on the weekend part of the 380+ car convoy on the track - amazing day and the UK launch for the Revuelto too.

Had a chat with Stephan Winkelmann too who confirmed that there will be NO spider version of the Revuelto due to the way the batteries are packaged in the car it wont be possible. A performance SV SVJ etc is on the cards later though...

[LordOfTheManor]

OMG ! I can't believe there isn't a Spyder to come

Well that should keep Aventador Roadster prices firm.

Apparently its not possible on this car given the way its engineered.
