Four Lamborghini Revueltos supercars caused quite a commotion in London. They took over the streets of the British capital, looking and sounding just like fighter jets. There was no way in a million years that those cars could have kept a low profile once they left the dealership.
People stopped whatever they were doing and grabbed their phones to snap photos of the exclusive convoy that together sports 4,004 horsepower (1,060 metric horsepower). You are actually looking at $2 million on wheels. The four of them reportedly belong to a dealership, and they went out for a ride in the heart of London.
Each of the four brand-new Revuelto examples sports a different color. One of them is what seems to be Bianco Icarus (white), with the registration plate indicating that it is a V12 that powers it.
The second to drive out of the dealership is painted in Grigio Keres (gray) and features a registration plate that reads "HRO," the name of the dealership (H.R. Owen), and the lettering "8ULL," with the "8" looking like a "B," which is a reference to the sources of inspiration for the names of the Lamborghini models as well as for the badge of the automaker.
Number 3 to come out to play in the London spring sun is one painted in Arancio Borealis (orange), with the name of the dealership on the registration plate.
There is also one in yellow, which the Italian house calls Giallo Auge. All four drivers had to face the London traffic, which is not exactly one to provide a pleasant weekend cruise. But with the four Lambo examples sitting in traffic jams just like everybody else, passers-by had the chance to photograph them from every single angle.

They eventually parked diagonally, with the scissor doors sprung open, for that one shot that will probably make the rounds on social media.
The four of them also encountered a Ferrari Purosangue and a Lamborghini Aventador, making the streets of London look like a genuine motor show.
Last month, we reported about the arrival of the first Lamborghini Revuelto in London. Looking like a million dollars and sounding just the same, the car came painted in Verde Turbine, which is Italian for Turbine Green, a matte shade of military green.
That supercar featured a very eye-catching orange and black interior full of leather, Alcantara, and carbon fiber. The model instantly got the attention of the people passing by as the V12 made heads turn.
The Revuelto is Lamborhghini’s first plug-in hybrid which the brand sophisticatedly calls HPEV, which is short for High Performance Electrified Vehicle. Its powertrain integrates the mid-mounted, naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12, capable of gearing 814 horsepower (825 metric horsepower) and 535 pound-feet (725 Newton meters) of torque.
Three permanent magnet electric motors, each delivering 187 horsepower (190 metric horsepower) and 248 pound-feet (336 Newton meters) of torque, assist the V12 for a total of 1,001 horsepower (1,015 metric horsepower) and 783 pound-feet (1,062 Newton meters).
Long story short, this car can do the 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 kph) run in 2.3 seconds, while the needle of the speedometer can go all the way to a top speed of 218 mph (452 kph). None of the Lamborghini Revueltos spotted in London could put those abilities to the test before they returned to the dealership where they belonged.
