    Powering the latest Urus is the same 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine, which has been re-tuned to deliver better output. Figuratively, the mill generates 666 PS (up by 16 PS) of maximum power and 850 Nm (unchanged) of peak torque. This slight power bump enables the SUV to hit the century sprint in 3.3 seconds (1.2 seconds quicker) and a top speed of 306 kmph.

    Not to forget the Urus Performante has already set a record at this year’s Pikes Peak International Hill Climb after breaking the Bentley Bentayga’s record by 17.838-seconds.

    Further adding to the performance are the updated drive modes. The SUV now comes with a new Rally mode for dirt roads, which is also tuned to have a bit of oversteer. The continuing modes include Strada, Sport, and Corsa.

    Apart from gaining power, the performance model also shed some weight. It is 47kg lighter than the standard Urus thanks to the large amount of carbon fibre components used in the construction. It also adds a tag of the best-in-class power-to-weight ratio to the model.

    Other key modifications that set the Urus Performante apart from the standard model are - 

    2023 Lamborghini Urus Performante

    • It comes with the new 23-inch alloy wheels or lightweight 22-inch wheels, paired with an SUV-adapted version of the Pirelli P Zero Trofeo R performance tyres as an option.

    • Inside, we can see Black Alcantara upholstery (leather as optional), along with a new hexagonal design for the seats
    • The Performante badging is also positioned on the seats, doors, and roof lining.
