2023 Lamborghini Urus Performante | MotorWeek First Drive

The Lamborghini Urus SUV has been on sale since 2018 and it’s been a hit for the brand ever since. So it's not surprising that the Urus SUV lineup is growing with the all-new sporty Urus S model, and bringing it to a whole new level…the Urus Performante. Jessica Ray ventured to Rome, Italy for some fun behind the wheel of this Super SUV! #Lamborghini #LamborghiniUrus #UrusPerformante #Urus

Really, REALLY appreciate that this expert reviewer PRONOUNCES the names Urus, and Performante correctly. So refreshing! I was dreading the typical “Honey boo-boo”, lazy American slang…….BRAVO!! Here in L.A. Urus is as common as a Ford in Ohio.

$260k+ plus customers are probably not watching this review

I like how she pronounced Urus and performante in Italian, but didn't do it for Lamborghini.... Good review non the less

Nice Audi rsq8








edit: with a factory stage 1 tune lol

I'd love to see Lamborghini make an SUV with their V10 or V12. Either a variant of the Urus, or something even more aggressive.

Very nice! I was always a fan of the Urus and now dropping the air suspension and upping the performance on this Performante version makes me a bigger fan. This car just looks like it is fun to drive. Those smiles behind the wheel translate perfectly. I for one do not want to spend big bucks on a family hauler just for it to be an appliance. Well done MotorWeek and very well done Lamborghini!

My neighbor has one of these and an old LM002
Rambo Lambo He bought new back in 1988. I always thought these had V10s in them... his old LM002 has a Lamborghini V12.
This engine he said is an Audi twin turbo V8 assembled in Hungary not Italy 😥... Many folks daily drive these here in Scottsdale AZ

When I first saw one in yellow drive past my neighborhood, I thought 💭 it was nice. Now, in green. I like it even more. Power, performance, a smidgen of utility, and enough room for the family 👪...almost practical;)

Finally someone who pronounces the name correctly. Nice review too..

[elilevine]

I love that it’s numerous cars in one and a flat bottom steering wheel is a very nice touch❤❤❤

[stevenkaplan]

You were definitely enjoying that Lambo😂

[bghoody]

A track focused SUV. Only Lamborghini would come up with such a thing.

[Redman]

enjoyed this review. Didn't know they made an 'S' version?

Car manufacturers are no different than us people, just like how we make mistakes so do they.
Why would you make an SUV that has the exact same lines of a low slung wedge shaped supercar, it's a big mistake. Sure carry over design aspects of the family of vehicles you have, but to have it look like a over pumped supercar is just nonesense.
Porsche did the same mistake with the first gen Cayanne too.
Ferrari is continuing on the same mistake with the Purosangue.

(I design cars for the love of it for the past 40+ years but I'm still 18 at heart when it comes to cars) ;)

[rolexistimeless]

Excellent review! Still crazy to see lambo making anything other than cars

[sultanniazi]

Buy the STO and keep the urus as a daily driver. No need to buy this one at all as anyone who can buy this can get the real deal STO. An suv can never be as fun as the real deal Lamborghini.

The German and European reviewers calling the name properly, I could wrong but Hey.. I still miss John though.

[DailyLifeSolution]

It can perform well on a track, but a sports car will be a better option to run on a track.

Carbon fiber saves a few pounds but adds a few thousand of dollars. My Carbon fiber package was like $5000 and still weighs plenty🤫

Raise the profile 0.1016mm taller at the rear window. No children/no food allowed. Add Nokian Hakkapeliitta winter tyres.
