About the Lamborghini Urus
Although many drivers find the concept of a Lamborghini SUV a far deviation from the norm, the Urus doesn't mark the Italian marque's first step into the segment. From the late 80s to early 90s, Lamborghini formerly reigned the segment with the boxy and nearly forgotten LM002. However, the Lamborghini LM002 was more of an off-roader than an SUV. Thanks to years of technological advancements, the Urus makes up for its predecessor's limitations. The Lamborghini Urus has a range of features, such as a twin-turbo V8 engine, air suspension and a delicate touch of distinctly sharp creases, high sides and acute angles. The engine delivers a whopping 641 bhp that can reach 0-62 mph in 3.6 seconds and tops out at a maximum 190-mph speed.
What should you expect to find in the Lamborghini Urus?
The Lamborghini Urus entered the car market simultaneously with the Lamborghini Aventador and Huracan supercars. However, unlike the latter two models, the Urus has a front-engine layout. Even with the Urus SUV, Lamborghini stayed true to tradition: offering only 1 trim version with several upgrade options. Nonetheless, the Urus still packs an impressive list of standard features, including:
- Adjustable leather front seats
- Heated seats and mirrors
- Isofix child-seat mountings
- Climate control and parking sensors
- Urus infotainment LIS III system
The Urus infotainment LIS III system comes with several advanced tech features, including 2 touchscreen displays with multiple connectivity options, such as Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. There is also a range of optional features available, including:
- 23-inch alloy wheels
- Bang and Olufsen sound system
- Rear-facing Android tablets on the front seats
- Custom interior cabin
A new Lamborghini Urus starts around £160K, though you can expect to pay closer to £170K after customisations to suit your taste. Fortunately, Lamborghini offers an extensive range of colours and interior detailing options so that you can style your own bespoke preferences into the range. Main upgrade packages include the Urus Graphite Capsule and the Pearl Capsule. The former gets you pearl paint and a glossy back interior, while the latter introduces bright accents contrasting a satin-effect dark matt finish.
