re: Lamborghini's Performance SUV - The Urus

The Lamborghini Urus has been spotted on a testing run in it's production-ready guise in Denmark for the very first time.

Looks like the final production version will stay true to the Urus Concept.

re: Lamborghini's Performance SUV - The Urus

The Lamborghini Urus SUV will make it's world debut on December 4th, 2017, at Sant’Agata in Italy, after which the Urus will be showcased for the public at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2018.

Quote:
The Urus will also be manufactured at the company’s Santa’Agata facility. The factory will be expanded to 1,50,000 square metres to accommodate the new production. The Italian car maker will be starting deliveries of the Urus SUV in 2018.

It has now been confirmed that the Lamborghini Urus will be powered by a twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8. This is the first time in the company’s history that a turbo would be used instead of a naturally aspirated motor. The reason for that is the greater low-end torque which will also make the Urus the fastest SUV on the planet, claims the company.

Lamborghini Urus: New details surface ahead of global unveil

The Lamborghini Urus will be powered by a newly developed twin-turbo V8 engine that will churn out around 641 BHP. This information has been revealed by the company's CEO - Stefano Domenicali.

It has also been revealed that Lamborghini is working on a plug-in hybrid version of the aforementioned engine, which will likely be launched a year after the standard model's debut. Lamborghini will likely be unveiling the Urus globally by the end of this year, with deliveries starting in select markets from the second quarter of 2018.

Behold, here is a Lamborghini SUV clipping apexes on the 'Ring!
http://www.motortrend.com/news/spied...s-nurburgring/
Should we already make the "World's fastest SUV thread"? Because I am sure this "thing" will break the record. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if it goes around faster than the 918 Spyder. *bucket loads of sarcasm*

Lamborghini's Performance SUV - The Urus

Looks like Lamborghini is all geared up to venture into Prestazione SUV segment with its URUS!

Yes, "Urus" name is inspired from an ancient European Ox that stands extincted which was called Aurochs - not sure how it looked, but one of graphical representation from Google for Aurochs is below:

Take a good look at it now, in its new iteration and Lamborghini calls it the "URUS" because the character of the ancient cousin of our domestic cattle is present in this machine. It is intimidating in terms of its performance for sure as shown in the video with 6 drive modes! Lamborghini has teased us ahead of its launch trying to be playful in an ocean of sand displaying its attributes already. Porsche, JLR has to watch out for this:



PS:
Lambo is always behind butch looking Bulls!

Re: Lamborghini's Performance SUV - The Urus

Interior of the Urus

Quote:
Just like the latest generation of the Audi A8 and A7, the new Lamborghini Urus makes use of two digital displays, one for infotainment purposes and one for the HVAC controls while the driver’s gauges are digital as expected.

The air-vents follow a similar design with the Huracan while the center console appears to have the same flip-switch red cover for the engine start/stop button. A pair of dramatically styled knobs is positioned on both sides of the engine start button, controlling the different driving modes of the car. A new touchpad controller is also present

Re: Lamborghini's Performance SUV - The Urus

Netizens have got a sneak-peek at the upcoming Lamborghini Urus as an image of the much-awaited SUV has been accidentally leaked in one of the official video teasers (presumably due to human error) released by the company in the run-up to its global unveil on December 4, 2017.

The production Urus appeared briefly on infotainment screen in the video which demonstrates the vehicle's abilities in 'Corsa' mode. The company was quick to take the video down and upload it again after editing the part out – but not before the original one was archived by internet users.

Predictably, the front of the car indicates a design closely resembling the concept revealed, back in 2012. The Urus range will feature the brand's first plug-in hybrid powertrain putting out around 650hp and almost 850Nm of torque. It will be the only hybrid in the Lamborghini line-up (until a PHEV Huracán arrives in 2022) and be offered along with a 4.0-litre, twin-turbocharged, V8 Urus. Much like the Audi Q7 and Bentley Bentayga with which it shares a platform, the Urus will also feature 48V-powered active anti-roll suspension.

Lamborghini has chosen not to use a naturally aspirated powertrain for its SUV despite prioritising atmospheric induction in its supercars because it believes SUVs need to have huge torque.

According to R&D chief Maurizio Reggiani, the Urus' design, although applied to an unfamiliar body shape, is "pure Lamborghini." He said the look "has evolved considerably since the [2015] concept and the finished car is much better, inside and out."

Reggiani said Lamborghini has concentrated its R&D efforts on power, weight and aerodynamics, because “handling is a function” of these. “We want to be a leader here and have a chance to change the rules of the game,” he added.

The company sees a strong distinction between the firm’s four-wheel-drive models and the growing number of rear-wheel-drive variants. A modern electronic chassis control system like that of the Huracán LP580-2 is no substitute for the ability of four-wheel drive to transfer power to the road, he explained. Lamborghini will therefore continue to offer both driveline systems.

“A super sports car is completely different; you need the responsiveness of the engine, to feel the spark of every cylinder," said Reggiani. "We will keep normally aspirated engines for our other models – they are still the best choice.”

Lamborghini will begin production of its first SUV since the LM002 (1986-1993) at the brand's Sant’Agata Bolognese site in northern Italy. The site has recently undergone major construction work and the workforce is being expanded to prepare for an anticipated surge in demand.
