Get Ready for the Lamborghini Urus Performante -Luxury Meets High Speed

Race-inspired SUVs are becoming a staple of the top names in the automotive industry. One such example is the Lamborghini Urus Performante.

The Performante lives up to its high-class name with an output of 657 horsepower, which is more than the standard Urus model. The power of the Performante is the same as the Urus S, but this new high-class model adds some hardcore features, including lightweight panels and a performance-oriented suspension and tire package.

This new, top model of the Urus delivers the goods with a torque-vectoring rear differential and other goodies that make this SUV more powerful and fun than its base version.

Is the cabin comfortable enough for a road trip?

Unlike other Lamborghini models, the Urus is an SUV. This means we expect comfort and quality to ensure this SUV can handle the ride and offer a quality feeling during a ride on the open road. The Urus Performante has suede leather seats and an interior packed with carbon fiber, suede, and aluminum to provide the style, comfort, and quality desired. Similar to an airplane engine button or missile launch button, the Urus Performante has a hinged door to flip up and turn it on. This dramatic touch reminds you this is not your everyday SUV.

Differentiating from the S to the Performante

The Lamborghini Urus Performante does things a little differently than its stablemate, the Urus S. The Performante has a set of coil springs instead of the air springs of the S, and the Performante has a permanent height setting at 0.8 inches lower than the “normal” height of the Urus S. This lowered setting matches the lowest position of the S model, which makes the Performante a permanent performance-oriented model with impressive aerodynamic features and capability. This difference is noticeable for some drivers.

Why is the height setting such a differentiating factor?

The Lamborghini Urus is made for off-roading, but you won’t find the three off-road modes of the Urus S in the Urus Performante. This means instead of Neve, Terra, and Sabbia, you’ll find Rally, Strada, Sport, and Corsa. These modes offer specific driving settings in this high-powered, high-performance Lamborghini SUV. The Rally model is for some fun slides and corner tossing, Strada is for street driving, Sport is pretty self-explanatory, and Corsa is for some high-speed track fun. These modes can make this powerful SUV a lot more fun and active.

A performance attitude for serious driving pleasure

The Urus might be an SUV meant for carrying cargo and passengers, but it’s still a Lamborghini at heart. This new top-end model has the performance qualities locked in, giving you the driving personality desired, especially when you put it in the Corsa mode and test out the track-based performance of this impressive SUV. When in this mode, the active anti-roll bars and torque-vectoring rear differential have been reoptimized, and the center diff is more rear-biased than on the standard Urus SUV.

Like so many other performance vehicles, the Urus Performante rides on a set of Pirelli P Zero Trofeo R quasi-competition tires, which make it stick to the road while carving up the corners.

Can this Urus function as a normal SUV?

The new Lamborghini Urus Performante is a high-powered machine of sheer performance, but it’s also an SUV. This means we expect it to function as a normal vehicle and handle your daily driving like most other vehicles. When you just need to drive around town, stop at lights, or ride through the neighborhood, this SUV is perfectly comfortable and capable of such driving.

Most sports cars that are made for the track don’t add a focus on safety and visibility because they typically drive forward and not in reverse. The Urus Performante offers good visibility and a useful rearview camera to ensure you can see what’s going on around you. Driving the Urus can feel a lot like driving a regular SUV when you’re relegated to your daily commute during the week.

Is the Lamborghini Urus Performante a good SUV for you?

If you’re in the market for this high-powered, high-class SUV and you want a vehicle that can be fun to drive up the coast on the weekend while offering some track-ready performance and daily driving capabilities, the Urus Performante can be a great option. You’ll enjoy the high-quality materials, impressive power offered, and sporty driving modes that make this mean beast ready to take on the track, street, or highway with ease. Will this be the Lamborghini you love to drive every day?
