It has just been announced in Sidney with lots of whistles and bells. Once it will arrive in dealerships all across the country, the Italian supercar maker is asking no less than $390,000 without the handling and destination fee.

It is a hefty price to pay for, but it is definitely worth the financial effort. For that money, customers will have to choose between a wide variety of visual tweaks and interior highlights, including exterior colour paintjobs.

Speaking of interior, Lamborghini has equipped the Urus SUV with its latest technologies – state of the art fully digital instrument cluster, touch-screen system, embedded screen for the centre console and much more – adding as well that luxurious feel that we`ve all been waiting and highlighted by leather upholstery all around the cabin.

The Lamborghini Urus SUV is also an exceptional car to drive, ensuring the smoothest driving capabilities and comfort, thanks to the advanced air suspension and active anti-roll bars, or the new driving modes – Sand, Snow, Dirt – accompanying the already existing ones on other models – Road and Track modes.

There are also the massive breaks, perhaps the biggest ever built for a Lamborghini model, built from carbon fiber and measuring 440mm up front.

Just like the rest of the new models within the VW Group, the new Lamborghini Urus SUV is also based on the MLB Evo platform, meaning new and more lightweight materials that help it to achieve better traction, fast acceleration and impressive performance figures.

Speaking of performance figures, the new Urus features an updated 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, with 478 kW and 850 Nm of torque, enabling an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds, and that despite its massive body style. The astonishing performance is also achieved thanks to the eight-speed automatic transmission with all-wheel drive, rear-wheel steering and centre limited-slip differential.

More details about the Lamborghini Urus can be seen in the media gallery below provided by Aussie magazine Performance Drive. Enjoy and don’t forget to share your opinions with us!

The most interesting fact about these accessories is the fact that they are a factory exclusive purchase, meaning you can only purchase them from the Lamborghini Factory. This move seems to be part of a plan to bring all those that have bought or want to buy a Lamborghini Urus down to the factory in order to see their purchase going through the different build stages. It is an interesting idea, indeed, to see you car being built up from the ground up. Unfortunately this is something that will generate further expenses for those that decide to take part in this.

The accessories are exclusive in more than one way. First of all they are created in limited numbers, which means that not all of the Urus buyers will actually get to enjoy matching accessories. Secondly, being tied to the Lamborghini factory means that most of the customers that decided to buy a Urus and have it shipped home will not be able to purchase matching accessories. While it may seem these accessories are redundant, for those that love to collect hard to get items this seems to be a one-time opportunity.

The accessories include a suede jacket, driving loafers and carbon fiber luggage sets. All these complete the experience Lamborghini intends to offer its customers with the Urus model. Given the fact that all these items are exclusive, it is hard to believe that most owners will actually use them. Exclusivity makes them collectible which in the end makes them unusable or rather unfit for use. Of course the perspective depends from person to person.

Lamborghini seems to have further developed the Urus brand with the addition of exclusive items that complete the experience offered by this particular model. No matter how you look at Lamborghini’s offer, you come to realize it is in fact an opportunity. Provided you are one of those people that want to have the complete Lamborghini Urus package, you will most likely purchase all the exclusive accessories Lamborghini has released for this particular model.

The first thing you will probably notice when looking at Lamborghini’s SUV is the bulky, edgy look of the vehicle. The design particularities of this vehicle make it seem futuristic and aggressive at the same time. This vehicle is indeed stunning. Every part of the car fits in its place forming a cohesive looking vehicle. Nothing is out of tune. Of course, the design pattern is reminiscent of Lamborghini’s latest supercars. Even so, the mix between these elements and the SUV concept is enough to create a truly unique vehicle.

The LED front and rear lights are amazing. The sharp look of the car is improved by their presence. The rims also incorporate the edgy style of the Lamborghini Urus. The car’s aggressive design is nicely wrapped up by the installed rear diffuser. At this point the Lamborghini Urus provides competition for other similar models such as the Porsche Cayenne Turbo or the Mercedes GLE Coupe. The interior of the car completes the aggressive, sporty design showcased on the outside. It integrates a hefty amount of gadgets and accessories that are meant to assist the driver on the road, at all times.

The engine of the Lamborghini Urus is a beast capable of outputting 641HP. The vehicle does 0 to 100km/h in just 3.6 seconds. The top speed on the Lamborghini Urus is about 300km/h. With a car like this engine upgrades seem useless. At the same time the performance of this vehicle fits its aspect very well. There is a great feeling of balance between performance and look with the Lamborghini Urus. Lamborghini also plans to launch a hybrid version of the Lamborghini Urus, which will make this particular model even more interesting in terms of innovation.

The Lamborghini Urus is without a doubt one of the most interesting models Lamborghini has launched lately. It embodies values that the Italian automaker has included with all of its produced models, while also developing a unique identity on account of it being an SUV and not a supercar. The Lamborghini Urus is without a doubt a vehicle any real automotive fan would want to own.

The latest spy video highlights the test mule being tested out in full throttle on the Ring, alongside other models like the new BMW M5, Opel Insignia or what seems to be the upcoming top of the line i30 N from Hyundai.

As we can depict from the spy video, the new Lamborghini Urus will be extremely powerful, especially since you can hear the wild roar of what seems to be a V8 engine. Speaking of which, the model is rumored to come with a twin-turbo mill with around 480 kW. That might just make it the fastest SUV in the market, faster even than the Bentley Bentayga.

Once arriving on the market, the new Lamborghini Urus will share the company`s new MLB Evo platform, also seen on the new Audi Q7 or the Porsche Cayenne.

Compared to its fellows within the Group, the all-new Lamborghini Urus will stand-out from the crowd with a new language design highlighted by a four-door coupe body style, Lamborghini`s signature on the front and rear ends – inverted headlights, aggressive front, sporty rear end with chunky diffuser. Some parts will also be constructed from carbon fiber composites to ensure increase performance.

As for the interior highlights, this will also borrow the company`s latest gadgetries, like an adopted Virtual Cockpit digital instrument cluster from Audi, adding as well high-end materials on the sports seats or dashboard.

Until further details next time, please take your time and hear out the wild engine soundtrack of the Lamborghini`s future Urus SUV!

Set to arrive worldwide at the end of the year, the all-new SUV from the Italian supercar maker is set to become the new kid on the block, with sales to overcome the newly arrived Huracan Performante.

This means that the Urus will not be aerodynamically advanced but also fast, meaning that it will be placed somewhere between the Performante and the Aventador supercars. Imagine that – an SUV with exquisite performance that would challenge the almighty Aventador.

According to the latest report from Automotive News, the brand-new Lamborghini Urus is likely to receive the same 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine as already previewed, but will gain some extra horses – 650 horsepower to be exact, with impressive performance figures as well. We should expect a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h below 3.5 seconds, getting thus closer to the Performante`s 2.9 seconds.

Once arriving on the market, the all-new Lamborghini Urus SUV will compete against the likes of the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk or Bentley Bentayga, and will definitely have a strong point when it comes to becoming one of the fastest SUVs in the world.

More than that, the Lamborghini Urus is going to be an exclusive offer, being manufactured in a limited-run of just 100 units for the first year. And if things go according as planned, we should be able to see another 3,500 units launched in 2019. Stay tuned for more upcoming details!

The post Report – Lamborghini Urus SUV with Massive Twin-Turbo V8 Engine appeared first on Ultimate Car Blog | The Latest Car News, Reviews, Tuning.

In Europe, the supercar is priced at 195,040 euros, while in the United Kingdom the model can be had for at least 173,271 pounds. The US consumers have to empty their pockets for 274,390 dollars. The new model also costs 3,8500,000 renminbi in China and 31,638,800 yen in Japan.

The Lamborghini Huracan Performante was long teased and advertised, with the carmaker releasing the insight with the supercar. It is tweaked with carbon fiber body which makes it extremely lightweight and increases its performance. We are looking here at 40 kilos being shed off.

The body style`s main highlights refer to much wider front and rear spoiler, engine cover, rear bumper and rear diffuser, adding as well massive high-mounted exhaust system. Also, the Huracan Performante is also coming with the new active aerodynamic technology, called Aerodinamica Lamborghini Attiva, which adjusts the car`s flaps in the front spoiler and rear for improved downforce.

In the engine department, the Lamborghini Huracan Performante packs the massive 5.2-liter V10 engine, now developing an increase 630 horsepower and 600 Nm of torque, enough to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.9 seconds, at a top speed of 325 km/h. The power is sent to the wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch, with the performance also being achieved via titanium valves, revised intake and high-performance exhaust system.

Optional, the Huracan Performante can also be fitted with some new mechanical goodies, like magneto rheological suspension instead of the standard dampers, along with variable ration steering which replaces the standard setup.

As a first view, you might think that the NSX is no match for the almighty Lambo Aventador, but sometimes things are not what they seem to be. You know the saying: “Don’t judge a book by its cover”.

I am not trying to influence your own opinion on which is better than which, so it would be better for you to watch the full video with the drag race between the two of them. But, in case you want to make things a little bit more interesting, let`s bet each one on a certain model and then see who was winning.

For the start, let`s find out more about the Acura NSX. This sports car is a real match for the Porsche 911, Audi R8 or Mercedes-AMG GT, and not for an Aventador, some say. It packs 537 horsepower and 686 Nm of torque, all squeezed from a hybrid drivetrain, which is pretty impressive in terms of power specs.

On the other hand, the Lamborghini Aventador is way too powerful than the NSX, this one packing a pure 691 horsepower, squeezed out from a massive 6.5-liter V12 engine.

Even with the uneven power, there is more than that; there is the handling characteristics or driving capabilities that each model is coming with, adding the car`s platform and weight or the how advanced the mechanics are.

Now that we know some details with both models, get ready and place the bets! The one who wins, is in for a treat!

Well, the good news is that the long-expected version is here for the take, as Lamborghini is currently testing the new Superleggera at the Ring, and the real proof is the spy video below.

As we can depict from the video, the new Huracan Superleggera is running its latest tests before being officially unveiling at the 2016 Paris Motor Show, in September.

The differences between the old lad and its successor are pretty obvious: this hot model is set to be the hardcore version of the Huracan lineup, lighter and higher-performance.

The test mule is also wearing more aggressive and muscular design lines, highlighted by the updated front apron, custom side skirts and huge fixed rear wing.

Most importantly, the 2018 Lamborghini Huracan Superleggera is losing weight, up to 100 kg, meaning increased performance and greater power-to-weight ratio.

As for performance, the hot model is set to pack an upgraded 5.2-liter V10 engine, developing around 460 kW. However, the rumor mill indicates a much higher performance.

Once it will emerge on the market, the 2018 Lamborghini Huracan Superleggera will complete the lineup, joining the Coupe, Spyder as well as the 580-2 rear-wheel version. More details will be announced at the 2016 Paris Motor Show, meanwhile, enjoy the spy video with the hardcore test mule completing some rounds at the Ring!

Once upon a time (at the end of the last week, to be more precise), near Paris, a truck transporting 9 supercars crashed. The (probably over) half a million dollars incident happened on a road part connecting A12 and A13 highways.

It wasn’t any press release from France police up to this moment, but local press didn’t write about any injury. We couldn’t spot more than 5 supercars all over the road, on the film caught by a driver: there are a white and an orange Lamborghini Gallardo (each $182,000 new, base price), a red Ferrari F430 ($187,000), a blue Ford Mustang GT500 (under $60,000) and a black Porsche 911 (which, judging by the rear wing, rims and body kit seems to be a 997.1 GT3 RS). If it’s a GT3 RS (though the decals indicates a Carrera S), it was probably about $180,000 new.

There are some information about a Porsche Cayman ($53.000), but nothing is for sure. By looking at the pictures, it doesn’t seem that the cars suffered irreparable damages. We also believe they were ensured, but there will be some investigations, as we look at lot of money mess.
