The performance and versatility are unparalleled and provide a new perspective for our growing brand. We look forward to the first deliveries of the Urus to our Canadian clients this year.โ€

With 1,306 cars delivered to customers across North America, 2017 marked another record year for Lamborghini sales in North America with a sharp increase in sales across Canada for six consecutive years. The launch of the Urus is expected to substantially increase the companyโ€™s production capacity, doubling it to 7,000 units a year worldwide.

Drivers of all types, ranging from performance enthusiasts to those who revel in luxurious design, will find the Urus a breathtaking alternative to the current SUV market. Equipped with 4WD and up to six different driving modes, plus customizable EGO mode, the Urus ensures comfortable daily usability along with heart-racing dynamics. Especially capable in off-road conditions, Urus provides optimal engine responsiveness, comfort and efficiency under all driving conditions and in any kind of terrain.

The Urus features a 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine delivering 650 cv at 6,000 rpm. With 162.7 hp per liter, the Urus claims one of the highest specific power outputs in its class and the best weight-to-power ratio at 3.38 kg/hp. The Urus can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.6 seconds. With a top speed of 305 km/h, it is the fastest SUV available.

Customers will begin taking delivery of the new Lamborghini Urus across Canada this summer at a suggested retail price of CAD $232,000 (taxes excluded).
