MXGP World Champion Jeffrey Herlings: A new Lamborghini as a reward

Jeffrey Herlings has clinched his sixth Motocross World Championship title following an impressive season in the MXGP class. The exceptional Dutch rider has also brought the 450cc title back to Honda after a four-year hiatus – the last title for the Japanese manufacturer came in 2022 courtesy of Tim Gajser, who had since moved to Yamaha.

Herlings is known for savouring his successes, and this time was no exception: the 32-year-old treated himself to a special reward. Herlings splashed out on a brand-new Lamborghini Revuelto – a hypercar packed with extras, finished in a special shade of blue with red accents. The car, powered by a 6.5-litre V12 engine, produces just over 1,000 PS and has a list price of around 550,000 euros in its base version.

Herlings’ car has been fitted with a special Akrapovic exhaust system. He took delivery of the car this week. This is not the first high-speed toy from Lamborghini for the motocross ace. Back in 2018, ‘The Bullet’ bought a Lamborghini Huracán after winning his MXGP title. He also owns a Lamborghini Urus – a model which, incidentally, his former KTM team-mate Tony Cairoli also owns.

His MXGP colleague Gajser has also made a move into the luxury segment. The Slovenian treated himself to a red Ferrari Pista 488. The car recently featured at Gajser’s wedding in Croatia, where it served as a backdrop for photos of the newlyweds.
