The Urus is Lamborghini's idea of what the ultimate SUV should be and in my opinion, they are on to something. The new model which was first unveiled during 2017, is not the marque's first attempt at a utility vehicle. In fact, Lamborghini was one of the first exotic automakers to experiment with the idea as far back as 1986 with the Lamborghini LM002.

The Lamborghini Urus which is built on the Volkswagen Group’s MLB Evo platform comes fitted with a 4.0-litre twin-turbo petrol V8 engine coupled to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The combination results in 478 kW and 850 Nm of torque which will propel the utility vehicle to 100 km/h in 3.6 seconds and on to a top speed of 305 km/h.
1. Racing exhaust system
Optionally available is an Akrapovic racing exhaust system. The titanium alloy exhaust system not only enhances the performance of the Italian SUV but bolster the sound that escapes from the four titanium tailpipes. The system is the only aftermarket option available that will be covered by the Urus' manufacturer warranty.
2. Wheels
One of the quickest and easiest ways to change the exterior look on any car is fitting new wheels. The Lamborghini Urus comes with a choice of four, wheel designs. The designs namely Asterope, Alcione, Nath and Tiagete are created from a single piece of forged aluminium.
3. Calipers
Lamborghini is famous for finishing their vehicles in bright colours, ranging from Giallo Spica to Verde-Scandal. To contrast the body colour of your Lamborghini Urus, why not fit a painted brake caliper? The calipers are offered in a variety of colours including Orange, Red, Green, Yellow, Black and Silver.
4. Load assist tray
While most of the items on this list are for improving the aesthetics of your Lamborghini Urus, this item improves the loading and unloading experience. The load assist tray is only available with a five-seat configuration and results in a load tray fitted with rails to easily slide in and out of the luggage compartment. The tray is constructed using aluminium and allows the owner to easily reach or stow items right at the back of the boot.
5. Luggage set
Seeing as though the Lamborghini Urus was created to cover long distances with ease and the occupants in comfort. Why not consider a luggage set that matches the interior of your performance SUV. Not only is the set of four high-quality travel bags made to perfectly fit the boot of your Urus, but the travel bags can also be made with the same Italian leather, stitching and Alcantara used for the upholstery of your Urus.
