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.
