The Lamborghini Reventón is a super sport automobile produced by the Italian manufacturer Lamborghini, between the years 2007 and 2008. It debuted at the 2007 Frankfurt auto show. It was priced at 1 million euros (US $1.5 million, or £858,000) with a limited production run of only 20!!
The Lamborghini Reventón was based on the Lamborghini Murcieago LP640 platform, with a new body designed after the Lockheed Martin/Boeing F-22 Raptor. The name “Reventón” was in honor of the Don Rodriguez owned bull who killed famous bull fighter Felix Guzmán in 1943.

Lamborghini Reventón Name
The Reventón is named for a fighting bull, in line with Lamborghini tradition. The bull, raised by the Don Heriberto Rodríguez family, was best known for killing famed Mexican bullfighter Félix Guzmán in 1943. Reventón means “explosion” or “burst” in Spanish, when used as a noun. In the vernacular, it is also used to define a very large party or a night in town. In automotive terms, it means “blowout, flat tire” when used as a noun. When it was used as the name of a bull, however, it was intended to be interpreted as an adjective, a quality or property of that bull in particular. In this last sense, Reventón means “he who seems to be about to burst.
The Lamborghini Reventón (Spanish pronunciation: Rebenton) is a mid-engined sports car that debuted at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show. It ranks as one of the most powerful and expensive Lamborghini road cars to date, costing one million euros (~US$1.25 million, or ~£850,000). The official press release stated that only 20 vehicles would be released to the public, with one additional car (marked as 0/20) produced for the Lamborghini Museum. Although early rumours indicated the total number would actually be 100, each Reventón is clearly stamped with its number in the sequence of 20 between the driver’s and passenger’s seats.
Despite the exterior being new almost all the mechanical elements (including the engine) are sourced directly from the Murciélago LP640. According to the official press release, the Reventón exterior styling was inspired by the “the fastest airplanes”. To emphasize this, Lamborghini staged a race between a Reventón and a Panavia Tornado fighter plane
Lamborghini Reventón Performance
The Reventón’s engine was a slightly tuned version of the Murciélago LP640’s 6.5 L V-12, rated at 640 hp (480 kW).
According to the official release, the Reventón accelerates to 100 km/h (62 mph) in the same time as the Lamborghini Murciélago LP640 (3.4 seconds), and is capable of reaching a maximum speed of over 340 km/h (210 mph). Using the internal speedometer, the recorded top speed was displayed as 356 km/h (221 mph)
Lamborghini Reventón Interior
The instrument panel in the Reventón comprises three TFT liquid crystal displays (LCDs) with two different display modes. The instruments are housed in a structure milled from a solid aluminium block, protected by a carbon fiber casing. The G-Force-Meter is completely new and it is one of the talking points of the Reventón. It displays the dynamic longitudinal drive forces of longitudinal acceleration, during acceleration and braking, and transverse acceleration around bends. These forces are represented by the movement of an indicator on a graduated three-dimensional grid, depending on the direction and intensity of the acceleration. Formula One teams also use a similar device to analyze dynamic forces. The seats of the Reventón are black leather and brown Alcantara.
By simply pressing a button, the driver can switch to the second, quasi-analog display, where there are the usual circular instruments; speedometer and tachometer. The G-Force-Meter is still the central element of this display mode
Lamborghini Reventón Exterior
The Reventón features an all-new carbon fiber exterior. All Reventóns have the same exterior color, described as “mid opaque grey without the usual shine.”
Lamborghini has also picked up some of parent company Audi’s design language. It is the first Lamborghini to incorporate daylight running lights into the headlamps. Seven Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) at each headlamp flank the bi-Xenon main beam and stay lit whenever the car is in movement. Due to the high temperatures in the rear lower part of the car, special heatproof LEDs are used for the indicator and hazard lights, stoplights and rear lights with a triple arrow optical effect
Lamborghini Reventón Production
The first car went to Lamborghini of Las Vegas in Nevada.
In addition, 4 Lamborghini Reventóns are in the process of being delivered to Singapore. However, whether they will be registered will have to be considered due to the fact that while the car itself costs S$2.1 million, registration can cost up to S$5 million
Car #3 was sold in an eBay auction and was delivered to a buyer in California. It currently resides in Vancouver, Canada.
On November 20, 2008, Lamborghini announced the delivery of the last Lamborghini Reventón to a British customer of the official Midlands dealer, Lamborghini Birmingham. However, Cars UK’s later report disputed the official claim, and revealed that the car #20 was delivered to Lamborghini Houston, as were two other cars

The car would use the engine from the Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce.
