This is not the first time five-year-old Zain Sofuoglu has gained online fame for his unique feats. Earlier in 2023, he went viral on the internet at the age of three when he was shown making donuts in a Ferrari SF90 Stradale. With the support of his racer father, the young athlete has been participating in motorcycle and karting championships.

Father Kenan Sofuoglu's highest speed record

Setting records has now become a tradition for the Sofuoglu family. Motorcycle enthusiasts will remember Kenan Sofuoglu for his record-setting race with a Kawasaki H2R in 2017, when he set a top speed record of 400 kmph in less than 30 seconds. Kenan has also won five world titles in the Supersport World Championship with 43 wins and 84 podium finishes. He also competed in Moto2 in 2010 and 2011.

Zayn is sure to be inspiring many people – young and old – to pursue their passions from a young age.

The coupe borrows styling cues from Lamborghini’s recent limited-edition models including the Centenario and Sian FKP 37. The new signature ‘Y’ theme on the LED DRLs and taillights gives the two-door, mid-engined coupe a futuristic look, while the twin exhaust in the centre offers a menacing appearance. The Revuelto looks sharp, ready to cut like a blade, with an aggressive front profile. It also gets the scissor doors, which remain a signature element on the flagship Lamborghini.

The cabin gets a modern look with the vertically-stacked 8.4-inch infotainment screen, while there’s a 12.3-inch digital console on the Revuelto. The passenger also gets a 9.1-inch screen that will offer a host of information on the car.

Powering the Lamborghini Revuelto is the newly-developed 6.5-litre naturally-aspirated V12 engine that develops 803 bhp at 9,250 rpm and 712 Nm of peak torque at 6,750 rpm. The engine is paired with three electric motors that push the total output to 1,001 bhp. Power goes to all four wheels via the new 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. 0-100 kmph comes up in 2.5 seconds while 0-200 kmph is achieved in just 7 seconds. The top speed is rated at 350 kmph. There are 13 driving modes on the Revuelto.

Furthermore, the Revuelto gets electric torque vectoring, and four-wheel drive is available in fully electric drive mode for dynamic handling. The high-performance hybrid supercar can travel up to 10 km on electric propulsion alone via the 3.8 kWh battery pack.

The new Lamborghini Revuelto competes against the Ferrari SF90, also a plug-in hybrid supercar in the segment. The big bull is also offering a host of personalisation and customisation options with the Revuelto to customers in India. The hybrid performance coupe arrives as a Completely Built Unit (CBU) in the country.
