Thirteen years have passed since Lamborghini pulled the plug on the Murcielago, and given the impressive advancements in powertrain development, aerodynamics, tech, and safety, it feels like this is literally a classic supercar.
But we can only call it a modern classic for now, and it is certainly one that still keeps us up at night. With a beautiful wedge design and lots of sharp creases combined with soft lines, the Lamborghini Murcielago has aged gorgeously. It has Luc Donckerwolke to thank for the initial styling and Filippo Perini for the re-envisionment, who also left his mark on the mechanically-related Reventon.
Nonetheless, this story isn't about dissecting the looks of the Murcielago, nor the Reventon's for that matter, as it revolves around one head-turning copy, which proves that supercars don't need flashy colors in order to stand out more. Finished in black, it has tinted windows and a set of new wheels on its feet with a bronze look that was the work of AG Luxury.
Named the AGL43, the alloys are available with a standard or concave profile and can be had with a monoblock, dual-block, or three-piece design. They were made of aerospace-grade forged aluminum for an optimum strength-to-weight ratio, are available in multiple sizes ranging from 19 to 26 inches (bar 25), and can be painted in one of the numerous hues making up the palette.
Multiple Ferraris, C8 Corvettes, Honda NSXs, Audi R8s, and other fast cars feature these wheels, which are not necessarily limited to the exotic side of the automotive world. In fact, you will also find them on the Porsche Panamera, Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe, BMW M4 Coupe, and also on the Mercedes-AMG G 63, Audi RS Q8, Cadillac Escalade, and other pricey high-riders.
Now, since Lamborghini discontinued the Murcielago, they have graced the supercar world with the more advanced Aventador. But the latter's era also came to an abrupt end last year when it was dropped for good to make room for its successor, the Revuelto. Named after a fighting bull, in plain Lamborghini fashion, the modern-day machine retains the naturally aspirated V12 recipe, pairing it with three electric motors.
It has as much power as the original Bugatti Veyron, namely 1,001 hp, and takes a swing at the hypercar market with the 0-62 mph (0-100 kph) in 2.5 seconds. The top speed is 217 mph (350 kph), and besides going like stink, and looking mighty exotic, the Lamborghini Revuelto is also capable of driving on pure electricity for a few miles, which should come in handy in history city centers.
Design-wise, the Revuelto is not yet up there with the Aventador, Murcielago, Diablo, or Countach, but who knows, maybe we'll look at its successor in a few years and say it's not as pretty as the brand’s first mass-produced electrified model. But if you had to choose based on the styling solely, which Lamborghini would get your seal of approval? It would probably be the Countach for me.
