Lamborghini's latest SUV, 'Urus,' on display at the Beijing International Automotive Exhibition in Beijing, China.
Got $200,000? You, too, can own Lamborghini’s Urus, currently a concept vehicle due - if it goes into production - in 2015.
Unveiled recently in Bejing, this cannon of an SUV makes 600 horsepower and only 3,000 will be manufactured, honchos say, with half that number (possibly) coming to the USA. Complete engine details aren’t available, but the company is up against increasingly stringent fuel economy rules in Europe and other countries, meaning the Urus’ cylinder count is currently a wait-and-see for auto nuts. It might be 10 cylinders, for example, or 8 with a turbocharger.
