The Lamborghini Urus Will Spawn A Hybrid Version
In the turbulent air behind the arrival of the 641bhp Lamborghini Urus, we can now tell you that there’s a plug-in hybrid on the way, too.
It would use the same V8-based setup as the Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid. The Porsche is good for 671bhp and 627lb ft – that’s 30bhp more than, but coincidentally (or perhaps not) the exact same torque output as the non-hybrid Urus. In the Urus, the hybrid should nudge 700bhp.
Auto Express, which has broken the news after speaking to Lamborghini personnel at the Urus’ launch, also says the extra torque of an electric motor would cut as much as half a second off the super-SUV’s 0-62mph sprint time, which is already a pretty nippy 3.6 seconds. We find that one tough to believe, but it’s theoretically possible. A few tenths’ reduction is our prediction.
The plug-in car’s purpose would be to duck beneath the heavy taxation in vast markets like China. Emissions would drop to 70g/km or so, meaning the Urus plug-in would escape the same financial beatings as its sibling. An electric driving range of about 30 miles is expected, but in the real world it’s likely to be less.

My configuration
I could see it coming.
Ikr?
did i pronounced it right?
Absolutely
Yes, right…
P.S:It says “the Urus will spawn a Hybrid Version”
I didn’t know Lamborgini did witchcraft and magic… Cars spawning other cars…
Is there anything even vaguely Lamborghini about this car apart from the badge?
Well there definitely are lots of design ques
The Audi (ultimately Audi) ownership (V8 bi-turbo)
Probably trying to design the car with only a ruler and with a square (that’s what Google Translate gives me for “équerre”, which is that weird triangle you used for trigonometry).
All these vents and slats in the multi-layer front grille… There is so much happening in the front bumper that you can film an entire game of thrones season about it
😂😂😂
MattKimberley my vote for top comment lies here 😂😂😂
You’re on a roll!
I was like gonna be another boring SUV, but it’s actually the best looking SUV I’ve seen O:
So, now Lamborghini’s hybrid SUV will become as powerful as the base version of their flagship V12 supercar. Times have definitely changed.
Lamborghini.
Hybrid.
SUV.
Never in my life would I have thought those words could ever be used in the same space
Turbos. V8. Don’t forget those.
Nor would “off road Huracan” ever go together…but things are changing!
UUUUURRRRGGGG!
Its been nice knowing you Lamborghini… the hybrid SUV was bound to happen anyway
