The 2023 Lamborghini Urus Performante has more than just the potential to tear up a track, it could be the first vehicle of its size to own it entirely. That’s what you can expect from this high-performance SUV, which puts its competitors on notice. Say hello to a super vehicle that can fit several passengers for a hyper-speed excursion down any road.

For many devotees of the automotive industry, Lamborghini needs little to no introduction. The Italian manufacturer has a reputation synonymous with power, performance, and unsurpassed prestige. In recent years, the SUV has enjoyed a surge in popularity, surpassing the minivan and station wagon as the ideal vehicle for the family-oriented consumer. Lamborghini seems the least expected to do so of all the brands to turn their attention to this particular type of vehicle. However, the Lamborghini Urus is just that. And now, some significant changes are being made to the SUV that breaks all the rules.

Two Worlds, One Urus

For those in the market for an SUV, you’ll have the opportunity to not only get behind the Urus wheel but also choose between two different versions. The standard Urus is still available, but Lamborghini has recently unveiled a lighter version with more power, aptly titled the Performante. And, as the name might suggest, performance is the name of the game that Lamborghini is still playing.

Performante Perfection

As previously mentioned, Lamborghini has put this version of their SUV on a slight diet. A carbon-fiber hood and lighter springs have dropped 103 lbs. from the frame of the SUV. While it still weighs a hefty 5,200 lbs, the modification is substantial and geared towards improving performance. This is accentuated by a lowered height to allow for a closer relationship to the road. The clearance reduction of 22 mm and a wider body for added traction and control by 16mm certainly allow for a smoother ride that’s more in tune with the expectation from Lamborghini’s fan base.

Under the Hood and Beyond Expectation

While Lamborghini has never lacked high-octane excitement via their powertrains, the Urus almost seems like a scaled-back engine, especially considering the V-10 and V-12 engines for which the brand is notable. A 4.0L V-8 is what propels the Performante Urus forward. Producing 657 ponies of horsepower, the updated Uros overpowers every SUV that’s currently on the market. With a top speed of 190 MPH and the ability to go from 0-60 in only 3.3 seconds, Lamborghini has single-handedly broken the mold in terms of what the SUV can accomplish.

Across the whole of the automotive industry exists a wide variety of makes and models for consumers to choose from. Currently, the SUV has been riding a wave of unprecedented popularity. Providing the modern family with the ideal vehicle for their commute, and usurping the minivan in terms of the model that’s trusted most. Naturally, domestic and foreign manufacturers all have their unique offerings with all possessing varying levels of popularity. It might come as no surprise that Lamborghini would throw their own hat into the ring, especially considering the Italian-based company’s long and storied history of innovation and quality.

What do you think of when someone mentions the word Lamborghini? You most likely equate the name to high-octane performance and cutting-edge engineering that many dreams of and covet. Now, what would you think of when we say SUV? You most likely think about how the vehicle has grown in terms of popularity as the ideal family vehicle. And possibly how grateful you are that the station wagon and minivan have been replaced by something a little more aesthetically pleasing. Now, what if both were combined? You’d have an SUV with unparalleled performance, wouldn’t you? For the past four years, Lamborghini has done just that with their Urus—an SUV that has no equal .
