Lamborghini 2025

The February issue of GENROQ is devoted to a special feature on the much talked-about Lamborghini. Photographer Kunihisa Kobayashi, familiar from GENROQ’s photo series, has taken new photos of the new Temerario model, which was unveiled in Japan for the first time. The 32-page feature includes a luxurious test drive of all the V12 engine models, including the Countach, Diablo, Murcielago, Aventador, and Revuelto, as well as an inside look at Lamborghini’s Italian headquarters and factory and a report on Lamborghini Day Japan 2024.

The second feature is “THE BATTLE.” It features a thorough comparison of the latest rivals, including the new Mercedes-Benz G580 EQ vs. Mercedes-AMG G 63 and the new Aston Martin Vantage vs. Porsche 911. And don’t miss the fresh test drive reports on the new BMW M5, Bentley Flying Spur, Porsche 911, and Mercedes-Benz V-Class. We’re giving you a thorough introduction to the latest luxury and sports cars!

Lamborghini V12 bloodline

[NEW CHAPTER OF LAMBORGHINI] The Revuelto is the first car in history to feature a V12 engine combined with a motor. But can it really be called a true Lamborghini? To answer this question, I traced the family tree and invited four legendary cars to join me. I will report on the true nature of the Revuelto, as revealed through a series of rides.

The G-Class’s tough choice

[THE BATTLE] The much talked about "electric G" has been introduced to Japan, completing the lineup of the new G-Class. The difficult question here is that the prices of the G 580 EQ and the AMG G 63 are not that different. Should you choose the trendy and advanced G 580 EQ or the pinnacle AMG G 63? However, there is a bigger difference in driving than you might imagine.

New Vantage vs Porsche 911

[THE BATTLE] There's no doubt that the Porsche 911 is the benchmark for super sports cars. Since the first generation, the Vantage has also been its virtual rival, the 911.
