The Urus has been leaked on the internet.
Looks so much like Evoque. I like it. The interior is fantastic. Reminds me of Seisto Element concept.
Lamborghini Urus SUV storms out early
It may be just me, but this is downright ugly.
Surely another super expensive "SUV" for the collectors garages, that won't see even a single loose rock in its life, forget getting on an off-road trail. (And with those low profile tires, good luck even on gravel, hehe).
"Urus", btw, is some breed of giant cows from ancient times.

I do hope the production version will get rid of those low profile tires. The platform is the base for upcoming Cayenne, Bentley and Audi SUVs so in that way, this is a great step in right direction from VW group.
And since it is expected to cost $200k or so, chances are it will never go off-road. But then there is a market for this, so why not take advantage of that.
Also its more like an extinct OX rather than cows. Its good they didn't name it after a bull and keep those names for supercars.

Love it! Lambo knows how to design really.
Although the headlights look a bit puny. Rear, though, is just too good. And the interiors are so sci-fi.
Overall, amazing is the word.
Cows or oxes, lets hope Lamborghini produces something milk-able here
15 years ago, when life for me was in first gear and high on octane - I would have raved about this vehicle and pinned posters on my doors. Now it seems too garish and overdone. (Like Lamborghini cares, and like I am ever going to be able to buy one...hehe).

Its not just you guys. This thing is downright UGLY. I mean Lamborghini is all over the place. They out did themselves with aventador but with estoque and this, they just went to the other end. The interior is fantastic though.
And one more thing, and this is just me, but Lamborghini should not be making suvs. LM was a good "failed" experiment 30 years ago, but with everything going so great in recent years, its just disappointing to see another sportscar maker(1st being Porsche) going down the same road.
VW is destroying the soul of its premium brands. First porsche, bentley and now Lamborghini. Whats next? Bugatti?
Thats just me though.
I almost puked after seeing this. My son was drooling though.
However, he's only 6. He also compared it to an Eureka Forbes vacuum cleaner.
Just like fellow TBHPian NinadJoshi has posted, me too hope Lamborghini produces something milk-able. My thoughts and prayers with the Lambo design team.
Liked the rear bit! Though the front looks quite odd for a SUV IMO... Good to see these 'Super SUVs' coming up. First the Kubang, and now this one. Though if I had to pick between this and the Kubang, I'd go for the Maser hands down! I wish Lambo built the Estoque instead of concentrating on a SUV which'd have been a great competitor to the Quattroporte and the FF. Alas.
Here is a video showing the URUS.
Pardon the language of the video. Can't help it.
Note: A Trivia about possible Lambo sales for 2011 is shown. Don't really know if its sales only or something else since language is different. But it says 23% change.

I have no doubt this will be immensely milk-able. After what happened to Cayenne, i have no doubt, coming from a sports/super car maker. Do you still doubt it?
No matter how ugly or mind-blowing the design, if this form takes shape and gets into production, this SUV is going to be a sellout in the launch of it's first month. Anything this exclusive by an exotic manufacturer WILL sell. I would like to see a matte black limited Balboni edition - that would look HOT!
Compared to the Cayenne and the Bentley Exp this looks like a billion bucks ! Awesome job by Lambo as usual.

It`ll be a hit in India too.
