The interior of the car has also received a few alterations. As per the brand, it follows the ‘feel like a pilot’ philosophy. The dashboard gets more appealing panels and the infotainment screen has been upgraded to a new 12.3-inch unit.

Lamborghini Urus SE: Performance

The most interesting part of the car is its performance. It has now become the segment leader with the addition of this new PHEV technology. The Urus SE has a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 petrol unit with an output of 611.5hp and 800Nm of torque, complemented by the hybrid system with an additional 189.3hp and 483 Nm. The combined output stands at around 800hp and 950Nm of torque. 

This powerhouse is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission with an electric torque vectoring system, and an electro-hydraulic multi-plate clutch, which distributes driving torque between the front and rear axles. Thanks to the electronic limited-slip differential installed on the rear axle which provides “on-demand oversteering," making the car feel sportier.

These numbers make the Urus SE an insanely fast SUV. As per the brand, it can do 0 to 100 km/h within 3.4 seconds and 0 to 200 km/h in 11.4 seconds, with a top speed of 312 km/h. The vehicle has a 25.9kWh battery pack and the brand says, it can cover 60kms in electric mode.
