The creation of the limited edition Super SUV was overseen by Lamborghini’s Ad Personam department, allowing each Essenza SCV12 customer to uniquely configure their own example of the Urus Performante, featuring a dedicated design and racing inspired details for maximum sportiness. The exclusive character of this Urus Special Edition is highlighted by the extensive use of exposed carbon fiber elements with a glossy or matte finish, echoing the treatment of the bodywork chosen by the customer: not only the carbon fiber engine hood and roof is in carbon fiber, but also the rocker covers, mirrors, and the carbon fiber frame with the Lamborghini logo set between the rear light clusters.
Urus Performante is the sportiest and most high performance version of Lamborghini’s Super SUV range. Thanks to its twin turbo V8 engine delivering 666 CV of power and 850 Nm of maximum torque, the excellent weight to power ratio and optimized aerodynamics, the Performante accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds and reaches a top speed of 306 km/h. These performance features enabled the Urus Performante to set a record in the production SUV category on the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb course, crossing the finish line at an altitude of 4,302 meters in 10:32.064, beating the previous time by more than 17 seconds.
To underscore the vehicle’s track oriented aptitude, Lamborghini’s Centro Stile designers created a dedicated Ad Personam livery with color combinations tailored to specific customer requests, with the paintwork of each unit undertaken in Lamborghini’s in house paint shop. Along with a two tone color scheme, originating from the combination of all the carbon fiber elements that stand out on the body, the lower part of the car is black, embellished with a contrasting color line that is repeated on the roof arch, further highlighting the car’s silhouette.
The body colors and livery were chosen exclusively with each customer and echo those of their Essenza SCV12 cars, including the distinctive number painted on the doors. Each example is also equipped with 23†high gloss black wheels and black calipers by default, though customers can freely select the type and colors of wheels and calipers from those available. The cabin features exclusive Nero Cosmus (black) Alcantara upholstery with leather details, carbon fiber decorations with a choice of glossy or matte finish, black anodized aluminum elements, and a Dark Package except for the contrasting red door handles. ■
