It delivers a maximum 650 hp at 6,000 rpm and maximum torque of 850 Nm at 2,250-4,500 rpm. The Urus goes from 0-200 km/h in 12.8 seconds and the braking system brings the car to a stop from 100 km/h over just 33.7 metres. The eight-cylinder engine also comes with a cylinder deactivation feature that cuts fuel consumption and balances efficiency and performance. With this, Lamborghini has also been able to reduce the turbo lag to ensure smooth provision of power throughout the torque curve.
Running parallelly, the twin-scroll turbos give maximum power even in extreme conditions.
And for increased responsiveness, a central turbocharger layout has been adopted close to the combustion chambers. The compact, powerhouse engine, placed in a low-mounted position, keeps the centre of gravity low. This is the first time that Lamborghini has opted for a turbocharged engine and, rightly so, as the Urus would benefit from off-road conditions due to the high torque produced at low revs.
It closest competitor is the 2016 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, which clocks 0-100 in 3.8 seconds. In the fast SUV segment, it beats them all - 2016 Mercedes-Benz G65 AMG, 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged, 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE63 S AMG, and 2016 BMW X6 M.
