The Lamborghini Urus Performante made its dynamic debut with Indian media and customers in Bengaluru. The new Performante version of the Urus Super SUV proved its prowess on tarmac as well as dirt track, having set a new official benchmark even prior to its launch by taking the Pikes Peak record for production SUVs in a time of 10:32:064: 17 seconds ahead of the previous record holder.
The Urus Performante raises the bar in every respect. Delivering increased power of 666 CV, it sets the best weight-to-power reference in its segment with a new lightweight, aerodynamic design, chassis set-up and sporty driving dynamics with specific drive mode calibration, including the new Rally mode dedicated to the Performante version of the Urus. The Urus Performante delivers 850 Nm of torque at just 2,300 rpm, acceleration of 0-100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds, and a top speed of 306 km/h.
The Urus Performante took to the scenic Nandi hill road in North Bengaluru surrounded by farmlands and vineyards along the way. The elegant long straight roads lined with tall tress enhanced the whole driving experience and the natural red soil patches and lakes made for one of the most picturesque backdrops for the super SUV. The guests had the opportunity to discover the Super SUV through a lens that explores the flora & fauna in this rich and biodiverse spread of land and experience the bar-raising performance of the Urus Performante.
In Bengaluru, not only could guests compare the improved performance and characteristics of the new Urus Performante on tarmac road, but they also drove on dirt track demonstrating the driving fun of the Super SUV and its abilities on loose surfaces.
Speaking on the occasion, Sharad Agarwal, Head of Lamborghini India said, “The Urus Performante made its international dynamic debut at Autodromo Vallelunga in Rome in last October, and we are excited to showcase its incredible prowess on Indian roads and on a specially created rally circuit just four months after its global launch. With Urus being one of the key drivers for our growth, we are delighted to see our media and customers experience the fun-to-drive sportiness and enhanced agility of our Super SUV on different terrain during the dynamic launch of the new Urus Performante.”
