The Revuelto PHEV, the Lamborghini Countach, the Urus, and more are a testament to the fact that Lamborghini's name can be synonymously used with performance. However, what other cars make their place in the fastest Lamborghinis ever? Let us take a look at the list with the highest top speed!
I start the list of fastest Lamborghinis with the 2018 Lamborghini Huracan Performante Spyder, a convertible version of the Huracan Performante. The car is powered by a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V10 engine, which produces 631 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque.

It is capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.1 seconds and has a top speed of around 202 miles per hour. The Spyder is 276 lbs heavier, so it is around 0.2 seconds slower in 0 to 60 MPH sprints compared to its coupe counterpart. The top speed however is the same for both bodystyles.

The Lamborghini Huracan Performante Spyder features Lamborghini's ALA 2.0 system, Aerodinamica Lamborghini Attiva, which is a sophisticated array of aerodynamic components that collaborate to enhance the car's aerodynamics in real time. It consists of electronically actuated flaps located in the front spoiler and rear wing, which can be operated to regulate the vehicle's downforce and drag.

The Lamborghini Gallardo was the second car under the parent company Audi AG and indeed the most successful in terms of sales. With two car of the year awards from Top Gear, the 2011 Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Spyder Performante used the 5.2L V10 motor shared with Audi R8 V10, Audi S6 C6, Audi S8 D3, Audi RS 6 C6. The same motor with a retune powered the Huracan as well later.

Taking the 15th spot on this list is the 2020 Lamborghini Huracán LP 640-4 Evo. After receiving a mid-cycle update in 2019, the Huracan earned the Evo badge (evolution) with a plethora of updates. The changes included updated front and rear styling, titanium intake valves, a new ducktail spoiler for 5 times more downforce than the outgoing Performante model, etc. The result was a meaner-looking and sounding machine.

The next car on this list of fastest Lamborghini ever is as rare as stealing second, third, and home in one appearance in MLB. I'm talking about the 2011 Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera released in March 2010 as the lightest road-going Lamborghini back then. With no significant changes in the V10 engine, the Superleggera takes advantage of its lighter weight to push itself to a top speed of 204 MPH.

Dating back to post Cold War decade, the 1994 Lamborghini Diablo SE30 Jota sits at number 12 on this list. To celebrate Lamborghini's 30th anniversary, the brand launched the Diablo SE30 in 1993 limited to only 150 units. Along with this, a Jota conversion kit was also launched which would transform the street legal SE30 into a pure track bred machine. Although reportedly 28 such kits were made, only 15 cars ever received it making it even rarer than you first thought. Top speed of the SE30 stands at 208 whereas the Jota raises the same to 210 MPH.

You did not expect the Sesto Elemento Concept to be here at rank two. The 2010 Sesto Elemento was Lamborghini's expression of cutting-edge engineering when it came to using carbon fiber technology, making the lightest possible vehicle at the time, and extracting the maximum performance. They did exactly that with the Sesto Elemento, which could reach a maximum speed of over 221 mph and clock a 0-60 mph run in 2.4 seconds.
The Sesto Elemento is one of the most exclusive and rare Lamborghini cars ever produced, with only 20 units made and sold to customers.

The Lamborghini Sesto Elemento gets its name from the Italian phrase "Sesto Elemento," meaning "sixth element," which is a reference to carbon, the lightweight material predominantly used in the car's construction. By utilizing lightweight materials like carbon fiber and aluminum, the Sesto Elemento, which is based on the Lamborghini Gallardo, has a remarkably low weight of around 2,200 lbs.
The 2013 Lamborghini Veneno was based on the Aventador and was made to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Lamborghini. The 2013 Veneno could do a 0-60 mph sprint in just 2.8 seconds and reach a top speed of 221 mph.

The interior is similar to the Aventador's and heavily covered in carbon fiber. The front 20-inch and rear 21-inch tires are wrapped in Pirelli P Zero tires.
The fastest Lamborghini Aventador is the 2021 Aventador Ultimae. After one year, the Italian carmaker discontinued it in 2022 to welcome the upcoming V12 hybrid HPEV car, the Reveuto. The Ultimae is able to rush from 0 to 60 in just 2.8 seconds and has a top speed of around 221 mph.
The answer to this question depends solely on the choices and preferences of shoppers. But to equalize the rivalry, we took the most powerful cars from both brands in recent times. SF90 Stradale from Ferrari and Revuelto from Lamborghini, both of which take 2.5 seconds to go from 0 to 60 mph. However, the Revuelto jumps ahead with its top speed of 217 mph compared to the 211 mph of the SF90 coupe.
