No matter how much your Lamborghini-daydreaming younger self would try to cast you out like the devil was in the house if you told them, Lamborghini SUVs are already here and hybrids are on the way. It’s true, you tell your younger self, that Lamborghini is rolling with the trends of practicality and more efficiency.
Go ahead and toss out all of those early 2000s posters with dramatic speed lines trailing out from behind an overly geometric Gallardo, because Lamborghini has a new race car for teenagers to plaster all over their bedroom walls: the Urus. Yep, Lamborghini wants to race its new $200,000 SUV.
Last year, Lamborghini broke down and joined most of the automotive world in catering to the public’s unrelenting obsession with large vehicles that’s choking other segments of the car market. It did that by debuting the Urus SUV, which, in the most shocking news ever, apparently has “terrific” sales so far.
We’ve been hearing about the impending arrival of the Lamborghini Urus SUV for months and like many of you, my gut reaction was: “But why?” Now I’ve sat in one at the Detroit Auto Show, I no longer care. All I need to know is how soon I can drive one.
Lamborghini recently came out with an SUV called the Urus, not to be confused with “uterus,” although the two sound very similar. The SUV now has its own line of fashion, luggage and model cars, because we’re all supposed to give into the idea that certain brands make us more important than we really are.
Looking at the 2019 Lamborghini Urus SUV could make you do one of three things: decide you like it, decide you hate it, or simply tilt your head in confusion because you haven’t quite grasped what’s going on yet. No matter where you fall, the configurator is out. What’s the worst that can happen?
Well, everyone, the day has arrived. That automaker all of the kids had posters and screensavers of has finally come out with a (somewhat im)-practical SUV with four seats that, under a sheet, could almost be mistaken for a Kia Sportage. This is the new 2019 Lamborghini Urus, whether you wanted it or not.
It’s no LM002, but the upcoming Lamborghini Urus is still pretty darn big. How big? Big enough to have a chuckle at when you see the testing video.
Left is up, backwards is starboard, and nothing makes sense to me anymore because apparently the Lamborghini Urus SUV is not only still coming to life, but it’s going to be available as a plug-in hybrid.
Before we get started on this, I do want to point out that marketing cars to women buyers, when applied correctly, does have its merits. There is truth to the fact that women have only recently become the primary drivers of car-buying decisions, and that they tend to gravitate toward crossovers and SUVs. That much has…
Porsche has revealed a new twin-turbo V8 to squeeze into the upcoming second generation Panamera and future SUVs, but the engine is has also reportedly been designed to squeeze into just about anything requiring a V8 in the Volkswagen Group lineup.
The latest from Sant’Agata, the Huracan LP 610-4 Spyder, has got a soft top and a loud V10. It’ll be great. Now let’s just move on, because the Urus SUV is set to be ready in 2018 to most likely be their first turbocharged and hybrid car. And here’s why building it will be Lamborghini’s biggest challenge yet.
Not to sound like a cranky old man, but it's a strange world we live in that a Lamborghini – a brand so steeped in Italian heritage despite being owned by Audi for the last decade and a half – could be built in Slovakia. But then it's the Lamborghini Urus we're talking about, the company's upcoming SUV.
Does this SUV concept from Chinese carmaker Yema remind you of anything? Can't put your finger on it? That's because it's ripping off the Lamborghini Urus, a car which hasn't been built.
More news tonight from Lamborghini's big 50th anniversary shindig in Italy besides the insane Ecosta concept: the Lamborghini Urus SUV has apparently been confirmed for production. Exciting news for people everywhere with more money than taste.
Gosh, it's been a long time since Lamborghini gave the world a front-engined car. Technically, the last one was the monstrous LM002 SUV, but the last front-engine cars were the Espada and Jarama way back in the late 1970s.
The Urus looks awful, is basically the same car as the revolting Bentley EXP 9F and, seriously, do we really need yet another SUV masquerading as a supercar? All valid points, but the Urus has a saving grace. It’s a Lamborghini and all Lamborghinis are silly in a good way.
