Italian supercar maker Lamborghini has taken its flagship SUV, the Urus, into the electrified era with the all‑new Urus Performance SE. The high‑performance, plug‑in hybrid (PHEV) version pushes the model’s output to a staggering 801 hp, making it the most powerful Urus ever produced.

Plug‑In Hybrid Powertrain

The Urus Performance SE pairs a twin‑turbocharged 4.0‑litre V8 with an electric motor and a 25.9 kWh lithium‑ion battery. Together they generate 801 horsepower and 1,000 Nm of torque, sent to all four wheels via a ZF eight‑speed automatic gearbox.

Performance Figures

  • 0‑100 km/h (0‑62 mph): 3.3 seconds (unchanged from the previous Performance model)
  • 0‑200 km/h (0‑124 mph): 10.8 seconds – 0.4 seconds quicker
  • Top speed: 312 km/h (194 mph), up from 306 km/h
  • Electric‑only range: approximately 60 km (37 miles) on a full charge

Weight Management

The addition of the hybrid system raises the curb weight to 2,743 kg, 323 kg more than the conventional Performance model. Lamborghini counters the extra mass with extensive lightweight engineering: carbon‑fiber body panels, a lighter titanium exhaust, revised brake components and lighter interior materials, shedding about 32 kg.

The resulting power‑to‑weight ratio stands at roughly 3 kg per horsepower.

Chassis and Suspension

The Urus Performance SE features a new two‑chamber AURA air‑suspension, replacing the previous setup. Lamborghini claims a 55 % reduction in body roll at high speeds and a 25 % drop in vibration, while a 16 mm wider track improves stability and steering precision.

Exterior Design

Visually, the SUV receives a full carbon‑fiber skin and a re‑shaped bonnet with S‑shaped air intakes. Larger grille openings, a higher rear spoiler and the biggest diffuser ever fitted to an Urus enhance aerodynamics. Lamborghini reports a 3 % drag reduction and a 23 % increase in downforce compared with the standard Urus.

Interior and Driving Modes

Inside, exposed carbon‑fiber trim dominates, complemented by a brand‑new 12.3‑inch infotainment touchscreen. Controls take inspiration from aviation, and a new “Rally” driving mode joins the existing Strada, Sport, Corsa and EV settings.

Pricing, Availability and Competition

Official pricing and a U.S. launch date have yet to be announced. Lamborghini plans to have the Urus Performance SE on dealer floors by early 2027.

In the ultra‑luxury SUV segment, the hybrid Urus out‑powers rivals such as the Aston Martin DBX 707 and Ferrari Purosangue, delivering the highest combined output in its class.
