Spy photographers have caught a new Lamborghini Revuelto SVJ prototype testing near the Sant’Agata factory. The big question is whether this is the ultra-hardcore SVJ or the Mk2 facelift expected in 2028. According to a recent report by THESUPERCARBLOG.COM, the answer leans toward the facelift.
Lamborghini Revuelto SVJ Identity Crisis
Before we get carried away, the cold water arrives first. This car is apparently not a test mule for the SVJ. It appears to be the next evolution of Lamborghini’s flagship hybrid. Even so, the spy images from @varryx_ are genuinely compelling for anyone who loves a dramatic silhouette.

Visually, the prototype looks almost identical to the Revuelto SV. Its aggressive body kit features a larger front splitter, side skirts, and a rear diffuser. Lamborghini clearly wants that track-ready stance, and the aero package reads like a serious attempt at downforce. Fans who studied the Ferrari roof scoop patent will recognize how important airflow management has become for mid-engine cornering.
Concave Wheels and Wilder Aero Details
The differences are where the story gets interesting. The rear spoiler shares the SV’s design language but stands noticeably taller. An extra vent sits on top of the rear fender, a detail first seen on the Mk2 prototype. Meanwhile, the concave wheels look purposeful, and they hint at a lighter, more focused setup beneath the bodywork.
Verdict From the Apex
On paper, a true Lamborghini Revuelto SVJ would demand more downforce, sharper steering weight, and an exhaust note that rattles the trees. Concave wheels and a taller wing are the right ingredients for that mission. In reality, a facelift is the more likely answer. Still, we expect the eventual SVJ to become the enthusiast’s holy grail, and early collectors should watch resale values closely.
Lamborghini has not confirmed any of these details, so treat this as speculation for now. Follow the latest updates at Lamborghini and track more breaking coverage through Auto News Magazine.
