Lamborghini’s New Super SUV Arrives in Lebanon
T
he Urus, also known as Aurochs, was the name of one of the large, wild ancestors of domestic cattle. The Spanish fighting bull as we know it today is still very close in appearance to the Urus, which also happens to be the name of Lamborghini’s new SUV, as is tradition with the brand’s nomenclature.
And Wednesday evening brought a very special such bull to the Grand Hills Hotel in Broummana, where Saad & Trad marked the arrival of the Lamborghini Urus, the third model in the brand’s lineup and its first sport utility vehicle.
Guests and the media were left in awe as the Urus, garbed in a Blu Astraeus pain scheme, entered the courtyard enveloped in dramatic smoke, which only served to further accentuate this remarkable SUV’s captivating aura.
Offering the outrageous performance and astounding handling dynamics of a supercar combined with the versatility and practicality of an SUV, the Urus marks Lamborghini’s first foray into the highly competitive SUV market.
But it comes prepared with the Lamborghini DNA, featuring a 4.0-liter V-8 twin-turbo engine that generates 650 horsepower and 850 Newton-meters of torque. That mill can propel this beast from a standstill to 100 kilometers per hour in 3.6 seconds and on to a top speed of 305 km/h.
“It offers up to six different driving modes as well as ego, available via the ‘Tamburo’ driving dynamics selector”
The Urus features an all-wheel-drive system that comes with active torque vectoring and four-wheel steering, carbon ceramic brakes, adaptive air suspension and active roll stabilization for maximum safety and comfort. Moreover, it offers up to six different driving modes as well as ego, available via the ‘Tamburo’ driving dynamics selector.
Its low-line coupé styling and commanding road position belie the very comfortable ride, higher ground clearance, and luxurious space within together with the latest technologies. The Urus provides easy driving in the city, maximum comfort during long journeys, thrilling super sports car dynamics on the road and track, and versatile off-road abilities in a range of environments.
The Lamborghini Urus has a dual personality: It is multi-dimensional. It can be specified to be as sporty or as elegant as the owner wishes, and can equally be used as a daily luxury drive or provide an exhilarating super sports experience.
FastMates looks forward to sharing that experience with you at the earliest available opportunity.
