The Lamborghini Urus SUV Will Debut December 4

Lamborghini has announced its new Urus SUV will debut at its Sant’Agata headquarters on December 4.

The Urus is expected to make around 650 horsepower from a twin-turbocharged V8 – likely VW Group’s new 4.0-liter mill. It will be based on a lightened version of the automaker’s MLB architecture, which is also used in the Bentley Bentayga and the Audi Q7. Lamborghini is calling the Urus a “Super Sport Utility Vehicle,” so it’s assumed it will be the most performance-focused and fastest crossover-SUV-thing on the market when it launches later this year.

The Urus has been photographed and caught on video on numerous occasions, with the most recent spy photos making it clear what the SUV will look like. It takes on a coupe shape with a rearward sloping roofline, a high beltline and narrow windows, while typical Lamborghini-look creases make an appearance on the hood and sides. Altogether, we’d say it looks very similar to the Urus Concept.

Lamborghini will make around 1,000 Urus SUVs in its first model year, but will ramp up production to a planned maximum of around 3,500 units a year – equivalent to Lamborghini’s current annual production. We may know more about the production Urus as its December debut date approaches.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

PZM 73rd Rally Poland Kicks Off

The WRC is in Poland and after only one stage there are three Volkswagens in the top five. Today’s special stage at the Mikolajki Arena is the first stage, but the rally doesn’t begin in earnest until Friday. Today’s super special stage was less than two minutes long, and less than a second separates the top five drivers. Hyundai Motorsport’s Thierry Neuville tops the charts today, followed closely by Volkswagen’s Andreas Mikkelsen. Sebastien Ogier and Jari-Matti Latvala are in fourth and fifth, respectively. Expect Ogier to climb the rankings, though. Not only did he win the rally last year, he has won every year since 2013. And with rain expected on Friday, Ogier’s chances are even better. “If it’s a bit wet then I hope I can make some good times,” said Ogier earlier today. “The best would be some good rain during the night so it’s a damp surface and then not too bad weather during the day so specators can enjoy the show without being too wet.” If it is dry, though, speed is on ...
