Lamborghini Revuelto “Opera Unica” makes China debut

Bespoke creation looks to the skies for inspiration

Automobili Lamborghini unveiled the one-off Revuelto Opera Unica during the Lamborghini Esperienza Arte, Shanghai, held at U-TANK No.5, Shanghai West Bund. This extraordinary masterpiece, created by Lamborghini Centro Stile and the Ad Personam personalization department, is tailored for the Chinese market.

“This Revuelto Opera Unica flawlessly integrates speed, power, and artistry. In our relentless pursuit of excellence within both the automotive and artistic realms, this masterpiece elevates Lamborghini’s innovative spirit and inherent art to a new paradigm,” said Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini.

Where Speed Meets The Sky

This exclusive Revuelto’s exterior design navigates the cosmos toward the brightest star in the Taurus constellation, embodying Lamborghini’s Direzione Cor Tauri strategy towards electrification. In addition to the Revuelto’s standard production time, the exterior paint effects, symbolizing speed and power, required an additional 480 hours of specialized craftsmanship. The hand-painted livery in Rosso Mars, Arancio Dac, and Arancio Apodis combines with a fading effect that transitions from Nero Pegaso to Rosso Efesto, complemented by a Rosso Efesto rear diffuser that enhances the car’s dynamism.

Cockpit

The interior invites passengers into a refined Nero Ade cabin, complemented by accents of Rosso Efesto. The details reflect meticulous craftsmanship, requiring 53 extra hours’ production time for the inverted stitching and piping that highlight the logo, along with a unicolor leather and Corsatex by Dinamica, all enhanced by precise contrast stitching and piping. Completing the design, the Opera Unica plate is crafted from carbon, incorporating shades of Rosso Efesto, with the inscription elegantly presented in Bianco Monocerus.

“Lamborghini is about innovative design and unmatched performance and of course, about the unlimited possibilities of colors and personalization. With this handcrafted masterpiece of art, we will foster the outstanding creativity that determines and inspires us at the design center Centro Stile Lamborghini. It showcases in a very unique way the immense power, speed, and thrill of the sculpture of the Lamborghini Revuelto,” said Mitja Borkert, Design Director of Automobili Lamborghini.

The Revuelto’s themes of power and performance are exemplified throughout the event. In the outdoor area, the art installation titled The Racing of Speed merges a Revuelto racing alongside the Somersault Cloud: a mythical cloud from ancient Chinese culture known for its ability to travel thousands of miles in a single day.
