Lamborghini presented the new Urus SE plug-in hybrid in Cannes, France, a model that expands the range of the well-known high-performance SUV.
The Urus SE is the second hybrid from the house of Sant’Agata Bolognese, featuring optimized aerodynamics and a hybrid powertrain capable of producing 800 hp at 6000 rpm and a torque of 950 Nm available between 1750 and 5750 rpm.
This is achieved by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 gasoline engine, the same one used by the Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid, with which the Lamborghini SUV shares the platform, with 620 hp and a torque of 800 Nm, combined with an electric motor integrated into the gearbox, providing an additional 192 hp and 483 Nm of maximum torque, powered by a 25.9 kWh lithium-ion battery located under the trunk floor and above the electronically controlled rear differential.
The permanent magnet synchronous electric motor located within the 8-speed automatic transmission can act as a “boost” for the V8 combustion engine, but also as a traction element, making the Urus SE a 100% electric 4WD vehicle capable of traveling over 60 km in purely electric mode.
Lamborghini announces that the plug-in hybrid Urus SE is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds, and from 0 to 200 km/h in 11.2 seconds, reaching a top speed of 312 km/h.
“The Urus SE is an important model for our company in the journey towards electrified mobility, as it enhances its performance while offering great comfort and top-level performance, with over 60 kilometers of electric range,” highlighted Federico Foschini, Director of Marketing and Sales at Automobili Lamborghini.
