Roadmap
The Revuelto SV represents a crucial step in the supercar industry's transition towards high-performance electrification. By blending traditional V12 engineering with advanced electric motors, Lamborghini is positioning itself to maintain market dominance against rivals currently adapting their own flagship lineups.
Prospective buyers in South Africa will need to account for the R15 000 000 starting price and limited production run of 1 963 units. Owners are protected by a three-year/unlimited km warranty and a standard maintenance plan, which can be extended to five years for additional coverage.

Interested owners should note that maintenance plans are modular and can be extended beyond the initial three-year term to provide longer-term support.
