The Lamborghini Urus is Lamborghini’s number one selling car. It comes as no surprise that they unveiled a more powerful and strikingly aggressive version of the Italian SUV.
The Urus Performante is the sporty evolution of the first-ever Super Sport Utility Vehicle with its own distinctive character and a unique sporty and lightweight design.
What’s new?
The exterior design of the Urus Performante is more aggressive with a lot of the components from carbon fibre, which allows for a significant weight reduction, a key feature on the Urus Performante.
It has a new bumper with more aggressive slats resembling the Huracan Performante. A full carbon bonnet as well as an Akrapovic Titanium Racing exhaust with a deep roar, rounds of the picture.
The Interior of the New Lamborghini Urus Performante is more driver focused for an even more engaging driving experience. Inside you will find a lot of Alcantara and carbon fibre.
The Urus Performante is powered by the 4.0-litre V8 twin-turbocharged engine, which develops 490 kW and 850 Nm of torque, which gives the driver an enhanced driving experience. It accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 3.3 seconds and has a top speed of 306 km/h.
It is available immediately in South Africa, and the Urus Performante will set you back R4 795 000.
Fuel consumption is the biggest operational cost in any truck fleet, and ISUZU believes it has a solution for this problem, using a combination of Compressed Natural Gas and Diesel Dual Fuel (CNG-DDF).
The final building blocks for the establishment of South Africa’s latest automotive manufacturing site have been laid, paving the way for construction to begin shortly at the Coega Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Gqeberha, Nelson Mandela Bay in the Eastern Cape.
Stellantis South Africa has announced organisational changes for the Executive Committee with two new members joining.
