Lamborghini Urus hits 185 mph on ice, sets new speed record

KUALA LUMPUR: Lamborghini recently put the Urus through a top speed test run, the results of which are astonishing. Now the thing about such runs is that they are not easy with a lot on the shoulders of the person behind the wheels. They require ice-cold veins to maintain focus as they approach inhuman speed.
