Aventador replacement name hasn't been registered yet, anywhere. I hope they stick to bull names for main models and funny names like Urus and Revuelto for their money-makers.

Here is why there won't be a V10 anymore:
1. The engine was maxed out, according to Lamborghini. They would have to start from scratch by developing/redeveloping a new V10.
2. R8 and R&D. Since R8 is dead there is no cost sharing, like it used to be. Thus they have to figure out how to share the cost (for example by using parts from existing models.)
3. Weight, performance and emissions. Why put an inferior engine in those regards when a TT V8 does the job better? (As seen with the McLarens and Ferraris. This is Lamborghini's chance at being the best in performance in that segment. By that time we will have a 296 Speciale and possibly 720S successor.) Remember they will be adding weight with the hybrid system, thus they need a smaller and lighter engine.

It was trademarked in EU in May.Revuelto trademark application was sent to US patent office Nov 29th:
Lamborghini Revuelto Edges Closer To American Arrival
On Tuesday, November 29, Lamborghini lodged an application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for the name "Revuelto." The filing was applied for with a number of potential applications listed, including merchandise, motors, and actual cars - both regular and electric -...carbuzz.com
Lamborghini Trademarks Revuelto Name, Could It Hint At Future Electric Model? | Carscoops
Surprisingly, the trademark breaks with Lamborghini tradition of using names associated with bullfighting for its models

Indeed, judging by how the Ferrari test drivers drove it.
I think the relationship between Ferrari and Lamborghini is a lot better today than it has ever been before. This wouldn't have been possible, if it was 80s, 90s or even early 2000s.

It's not out of reach of it debuting at Quail 2024.
I hope it's more fresh take on the design, rather than Sian or A replacement downsized/copy-paste.
Some very old renders, what I'm hoping for.

Man the memories of seeing Asterion for the first time... wish THIS was the Centenario. Ferrucio wanted to make the ultimate GT. This design with Aventador's V12 would have been perfect celebration of his 100 year anniversary.
Who remembers when Lamborghini was fidling with the idea to produce it? They had an Aventador with Asterion V10 hybrid setup.
"Tosca"
LAMBORGHINI TOSCA, THE AVENTADOR BASED HYBRID TEST MULE | LamboCARS.com
The 2014 Paris Motor Show had a nice surprise on the Automobili Lamborghini SpA stand, they unveiled something not too many people were expecting from Sant’Agata, the bright blue metallic Asterion LPI910-4 was unveiled … the first Lamborghini hybrid ever, with 610 hp from the Huracan sourced V10...

Sadly they abandoned that project.
Here is my speculation/prediction.
We know already that H replacement will use the chassis from the Revuelto/A replacement, except it will be with scaled down front/rear overhangs. Probably switch-gear and some interior parts too will be shared. Otherwise it will be a VAG Group parts special. I'm 99% sure there is no more V10, only a 4l TT V8 hybrid incoming with ~850hp. Think that engine configuration will come from Urus Ibrido, while the rest of "technical" parts will come from Audi and Porsche.

It likely debuts at Quail next year. Mitja has definitely done some sketches and even clay models with the team for Lambo8888 to see.
I personally think it will have proper headlights, rather than whatever front Terzo Millennio had.

I think H replacement should have the Y shape inside the headlights, keep it distinct from A replacement which has Y DRLs below the main headlights.

I would say false.
The Next-Gen Lamborghini Huracan V10 Scream Will No Longer Be The Same
The naturally aspirated V10 Lamborghini will continue to live on for the next-gen supercar, but it will use some electrical assist.www.hotcars.com
How true is this?

I hope we come full circle with the Huracan replacement being called scrambled bacon.

No, I prefer Revueltos!
Fun thought: Revuelto SV will translate to superfast scrambled eggs. 😄

Huracan replacement should debut by Quail 2024. Huracan production ends early next year.
Lambo8888 is referring to the other stuff I believe. Urus Ibrido, Revuelto derivitives and so on. 4th model, 2+2 GT EV debuts in 2028.

Aren't those Y shaped vents fake though? On both.
I actually hope they do something different for the replacement.
