The Urus is Lamborghini’s first foray into the lucrative SUV market and, as you’d expect, it has charged into the sector like a raging bull.
A combination of typical Lamborghini wild styling and ferocious performance ensures this new boy on the block will make its mark.
With a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 packing 641 horsepower, it is officially the world’s fastest SUV, going from 0-100kmh in 3.6 seconds with a top speed of 305kmh.
An all-wheel-drive system features a locking center diff, air suspension keeps the ride civilised, and enormous carbon-ceramic brakes provide the stopping power.
Lamborghini’s designers have stayed true to the marquee brand’s heritage in terms of design, performance and driving dynamics, producing a beast in terms of design and performance, yet proving drivable every day in a range of environments.
The Urus provides easy driving in the city, maximum comfort during long journeys, thrilling super sports car dynamics on the road and track, and versatile off-road abilities in a range of environments.
Its low-line coupé styling and commanding road position belie the very comfortable ride, higher ground clearance, and luxurious space within.
The Lamborghini Urus has a dual personality: it is multi-dimensional. It can be specified to be as sporty or as elegant as the owner wishes, and can equally be used as a daily luxury drive or provide an exhilarating super sports experience.
