In an expression of cultural fusion, India has welcomed the arrival of its most expensive Lamborghini, the Revuelto, with a traditional pooja ceremony. The supercar, launched at an ex-showroom price of Rs 8.89 crore, made its debut at a Lamborghini dealership in Bengaluru, where it was treated to a customary Indian ritual. This particular Revuelto, a demo model, is the first of its kind in Bengaluru, marking a major milestone for the luxury car market in India.
The dealer shared a video of the event on social media, which shows the supercar parked in front of a temple. The video captures the essence of the ritual, with priests performing the pooja, chanting mantras and performing various traditional rituals around the car. The practice, which is common in India, reflects the deep-rooted cultural belief that a new car is more than just a vehicle; it is a new member of the family. The pooja ceremony is performed to bless the car and ensure its safety on the road.
Unveiled globally in March last year and launching in the Indian market in December 2023, the Lamborghini Revuelto is a major addition to Lamborghini’s line-up. Replacing the iconic Aventador, the plug-in hybrid supercar is now the brand’s flagship model. Powered by a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine paired with three electric motors and a 3.8 kWh lithium-ion battery, the Revuelto produces a staggering 1,015 hp and 807 Nm of torque. This potent combination enables the car to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.5 seconds and on to a top speed of 350 km/h.
The exterior of the Revuelto features Lamborghini’s signature sharp, edgy design, complete with Y-shaped LED DRLs, hexagonal exhaust ports and scissor doors. Finished in a striking Verde Turbine with black and orange leather interiors, the car is not just a vehicle, but a statement of luxury and power.
As the Revuelto arrives on Indian shores, it not only symbolizes the growing demand for luxury cars in the country but also the seamless blend of tradition and modernity. With the Revuelto already sold out until 2026, it is clear that India’s wealthy elite are eager to get their hands on this cutting-edge supercar.
