Lamborghini Urus 2022

 

On paper, the supercar-reared, 641-hp Lamborghini Urus sounds overmatched against the 707-hp, Hellcat-fueled Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. Notwithstanding, only one of these ludicrous machines possesses the crown as the fastest SUV we've at any point run at Virginia International Raceway in our yearly Lightning Lap occasion. For the individuals who couldn't figure, it's the Lambo, which costs almost a quarter-million bucks. That is the section cost to possess a fiercely styled SUV of this family. Alongside staggering track abilities for its size, the Urus offers a few things that the Lamborghini Aventador and Huracán don't: a secondary lounge, useable freight space, and the capacity to tow. While its inside craftsmanship isn't on par with what its supercar kin', and it's the actual meaning of a clunker, the 2022 Lamborghini Urus is effectively the most boss family hauler on earth.

What's New for 2022?

For 2022, Lamborghini doesn't make any notable changes to the Urus. The super SUV is still powered by a 641-hp twin-turbo V-8 that pairs with an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. The Italian automaker is known for introducing limited-edition models and special appearance packs, any of which could be added during the model year.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

The Urus is powered by a twin-turbo V-8 that makes a stout 641 horsepower, burbles deeply when idling, and absolutely howls under full throttle. Permanent all-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic transmission conspire with all that power to enable fantastic acceleration. In our testing, the Urus went from rocketed to 60 mph in 3.1 seconds and tore up the quarter-mile in 11.3 seconds at 121 mph. Likewise, Lamborghini estimates a top speed of 190 mph. The Urus feels athletic from behind the wheel, too, with quick steering and stable high-speed cornering. With air springs at all four corners, the Urus has adjustable ride heights based on its various drive modes. Standard carbon-ceramic brakes ensure that the Urus stops as well as it goes—braking from 70 mph to a stop in 149 feet.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG

Those wealthy enough to afford a Urus likely don't care about fuel economy, but Lamborghini's heaviest model sure likes to drink. The EPA estimates that the Urus will deliver 12 mpg in the city and 17 mpg on the highway. While we haven't tested its real-world mpg on our 200-mile highway fuel-economy route, its mileage will certainly vary based on driving style.
