Lamborghini has unveiled its first SUV, the Lamborghini Urus Concept.
While Lamborghini insisted to call it a concept, the Urus certainly
doesn't look like one. It looks production-ready and certainly sexy! The
Urus (if it hits production) will go head-to-head with Porsche Cayenne,
Land Rover Range Rover Sport as three of them are performance SUVs, and
the BMW X6 crossover.
For your info, the name 'Urus' came from an extincted Spanish breed of
bull, and is pronounced as "Oo-rooss". The design of the Urus thrills
everyone, stimulating an imagination where the Urus is a raging bull,
ready to rush forward and conquer any tarmac it encounters. While the
Urus doesn't have as many angular lines as the Aventador, the former has
bold and sharp lines so that it look rugged and fast at the same time.
Not sure about its offroad ability though, but hope that it fairs as
well as the Cayenne.
Lamborghini gives the Urus a 600bhp engine with permanent 4WD, while
offering best-in-class CO2 emission figure among its competitors as the
Urus is a 'family car'. Well, one advice for the kids, "buckle up!".
Since the Urus is a said to be a family car, it is a 4-seater with
reasonable rear headroom albeit the sloping roofline and a versatile
luggage compartment to handle the weekend grocery trips! Lamborghini's
obsession in reducing weight makes its way to the cabin, where carbon
fibre structure made from Forged Composite is used in the bucket seats
and other components.
The Lamborghini Urus, although is a concept for now, should be hitting
the road in the future. So guys, get your cowboy hat and a red cloth
ready!
