Lamborghini has unveiled its first plug-in hybrid. Powerful and enormous, it perfectly illustrates the excess that is characteristic of the Sant’Agata brand.
With the Urus SE, Lamborghini takes a major step in its evolution by integrating cutting-edge hybrid technologies into its vehicles. This new model combines a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine producing 620 hp with an electric motor that delivers 192 hp, offering a total power output of 800 hp. This hybrid configuration not only allows for exceptional performance but also reduces CO2 emissions by 80%, aligning the brand with global environmental goals.
The silhouette of the Urus SE, with aerodynamics optimized by revised air ducts, remains true to Lamborghini’s bold and aggressive aesthetic, featuring dynamic lines and meticulous details that emphasize its sporty character. Among other new elements are the headlights with matrix LED technology, which introduce an entirely new lighting signature inspired by the tail of the bull in the Lamborghini logo, as well as a redesigned bumper and grille. The new rear diffuser and ‘Y’ shaped taillights give the Urus SE even sportier proportions. Coupled with the new spoiler, the diffuser increases rear downforce by 35% at high speeds and further optimizes vehicle stability.
With or without penalties?
The new plug-in hybrid system enhances both the performance and dynamics of the Urus SE on all terrains and in all conditions. The new electric Torque Vectoring system provides more torque and power at every speed between the two axles and the electronic rear differential. The Urus SE is capable of reaching a top speed of 312 km/h and accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds, a remarkable feat for such a massive SUV. The combination of the thermal engine and the electric motor offers welcome flexibility, allowing for 100% electric driving for urban trips or unleashing the full power of the hybrid engine for maximum on-road performance.
We still need to know the price of this power monster and its CO2 emissions. In play for the latter, the application or not of a penalty that reaches up to 60,000 euros on the 100% thermal version!
