Summary

  • Pilota is the Revuelto SV’s new track-focused driving mode, bringing five levels of ABS, traction control and stability-control tuning derived from Lamborghini’s GT3 race program.
  • Lamborghini says the system is meant to widen the car’s appeal beyond professional drivers by sharpening braking, cutting shift times and boosting responsiveness in a supercar with more than 1,000 hp.
  • Federico Foschini said straight-line gains are nearing physical limits, pushing Lamborghini to redefine performance around driver engagement and the feeling of controlling the car’s weight and power.
  • The mode arrives on the newly unveiled Revuelto SV, a limited run of 1,963 V12 hybrids rated at 1,065 CV and 0-100 km/h in 2.4 seconds.
