Lamborghini SUV

Lamborghini’s SUV was intended to be shown off for the very first time at the Beijing Motor Show next week, but the first images of the company’s upcoming vehicle, as well as its name and a few specs, managed to leak out online ahead of the official announcement.

The soon-to-be revealed Lamborghini SUV, the first offroader from the company since the 80s-90s, will apparently be called the Urus, according to CarsUK, and the aggressive-looking SUV is, judging from the images, apparently borrowing some features from the Aventador and the Gallardo.

The full range of specs for the Lamborghini SUV aren’t known at this point, but it’s believed that the Urus will be powered by a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8. The engine is the very same one seen in Bentley’s Continental GT, but the Urus will get a little more power out of the engine–somewhere in the 600b bhp range, according to the report.

The platform for the Lamborghini SUV is said to be based off the same one found in Cayenne, Q7, and Bentley SUV, but the Urus will have an advantage over its expensive SUV counterparts in the weight department. While more or less the same size as the current Cayenne, Lamborghini’s SUV will be about 100kg lighter, if not more than that.

Lamborghini is expected to have a lot more to say about its Urus SUV at the Beijing Motor Show next week, so sit tight for more information. Until then, check out a few more images and let us know what you think of the Urus’ look in the comments section below.

Last month the internet was on fire after Auto Express started to spread a rumor about the revival of the Lamborghini LM002. However, as we noted in our article, the story sounded a bit off. For a proper Lambo SUV, the Audi Q5 platform would be too small, a V8 engine not noble enough and the £100,000 (US $156,080) price tag a tad low. That’s why we didn't put much credence in the rumor.

It turns out we were right to take it with a grain of salt as Lamborghini CEO, Stephan Winkelmann, told British magazine Autocar that the Italian maker would give the green light to a four-door saloon inspired by the Estoque concept car.

“We have opportunities outside the supercar business, and we showed that with Estoque,” said Winkelmann. “It had a more enthusiastic response than we had expected. It was the right time to see if the brand could go outside of supercars. Even now, people are still emailing me about us making the Estoque”.

Mr. Winkelmann admitted that Lamborghini had only two choices for the third car of its lineup: a four-seat four-door and an SUV. But the latter doesn’t exist in the makers price segment and “it’s not a real luxury car”.

If something like the Estoque is going to be produced, the famous Italian automaker expects to attract new customers to the brand by being a more practical car. “If we are going to offer a third model, it could be a ‘first’ car, bringing people to our brand” Winkelmann concluded.
