The history of the Lamborghini Urus is one of almost immediate success. With its first SUV, the Sant'Agata firm achieved increase your sales significantly, despite the reluctance of some followers towards this type of bodywork. Since its launch we have seen some versions as interesting as the Urus Performante, but now it has been seen that the most powerful in the range had to be a plug-in hybrid. He Lamborghini Urus SE It is that electrified version that is going to surprise with its new features.
It is the pinnacle of the family and the result of combining two mechanics in one propulsion system. plug-in hybrid which we have already seen in others such as the Porsche Cayenne, with which it shares a technical base. Under the hood it keeps the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 (with 620 HP alone), while a 141 kW rear electric motor is added. In this way, all-wheel drive is achieved and, in addition, the eight-speed automatic transmission is integrated into the electric motor. The result is sublime.
Because the Lamborghini Urus SE develops a combined power of 800 HP and 950 Nm of torque, being by far the top of the range. It leaves the Performante behind with its 666 HP thanks to the power of the V8 “only.” That allows this SUV to improve some features. The acceleration of 0 to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds It is a little slower (due to the increase in weight), but then we see 0 to 200 km/h in 11.4 seconds and a maximum speed of 312 km/h. And in addition to that it benefits from another important detail.
Being a plug-in hybrid, it has a 25.7 kWh lithium-ion battery placed under the trunk floor that allows it to have a electric range of 60 kilometers. In the Urus SE there are many more driving configuration options, adding some specific driving modes to the conventional driving modes (Strada, Sport, Corsa, Neve, Sabbia and Terra). The appear EV Drive, Hybrid, Performance and Recharge to achieve the benefits of this level of electrification based on needs.
The chassis also receives some specific adjustments, especially in the air suspension system to offer a higher level of comfort. In addition, a new longitudinal torque vectoring system to better distribute the delivery to each wheel. It works in conjunction with the electronic rear differential and allows very dynamic and accomplished behavior. Not to mention that in the new model it has optimized aerodynamics and improved cooling with air intakes at the bottom.
That has an impact also in the design of the Lamborghini Urus SE, which is more fluid and elegant. It can be noticed at the front, through the design of the floating hood, which no longer cuts with the rest. Also new are the headlights with Matrix LED technology and revised shapes. At the rear there is a redesigned tailgate with “Y” shaped lights and a prominent rear diffuser. You can mount some 23 inch wheels with Pirelli P Zero tires.
For this Urus SE there is more colors in the palette, highlighting the Arancio Egon (orange) and Bianco Sapphirus (white). As for the interiors, there is a major update on several levels. The technology is completed with a 12.3 inch touch screen, which gains size to match digital instrumentation. It includes a specific telemetry system and new menus related to the hybrid system.
