Lamborghini Urus Performante
Despite shedding 47 kilograms, it has gained muscle via subtle tweaks to its 4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine. The chassis and aero package have also been upgraded to yield a vehicle that’s quicker around a racetrack, yet not at the expense of day-to-day drivability.
The engine tweaks are the least significant element of the Perfomante’s upgrades as an Akrapovic exhaust system and remapped engine control unit boosts power from the standard vehicle’s 650hp to 666hp, while the peak torque figure of 850Nm remains unchanged.
Lamborghini claims the Urus Performante makes greater use of carbon-fibre composite body parts than any other SUV, as the bonnet, front and rear bumpers, splitter, wheel arch extensions and rear diffuser are all fabricated from the material. These components are the main contributors to the weight reduction, although the Performante is still not slight and comes in at 2.15 tonnes. It still comes in about 70kg lighter than Porsche’s Cayenne Turbo GT.
The Performante’s aero package includes new black front air-intakes, which deliver increased engine cooling, while a new air curtain draws airflow over the front wheels to reduce drag. Those vents in the bonnet aren’t merely for show, they extract hot air from the engine and also contribute to aero efficiency. A newly designed spoiler sits in the back, using carbon-fibre fins to increase rear downforce by 38 per cent, according to Lamborghini.
The Performante, rather unexpectedly, ditches the standard Urus’s air suspension in favour of steel springs to lower the chassis by 20 millimetres and increase stiffness by 90 per cent at the front and 51 per cent at the rear.
The wheel tracks have also been pushed out by 16mm, while the pumped guards are filled by either 22-inch or 23-inch forged alloys. Also unique to the Performante are specially developed Pirelli Trofeo R tyres.
