2023 Lamborghini Urus

Price Range: $229,268 - $260,676 ^{Price range reflects Base MSRP for various trim levels, not including options or fees.}

It's easy to be skeptical of the Urus, with its overstated design and mechanical relation to the Audi Q8, Bentley Bentayga and Porsche Cayenne. But this super SUV backs up its flamboyance with stunning performance and luxury. It merges an unabashedly Lamborghini driving experience — including thumbs-up from onlookers — with advanced, problem-free technology that you don't usually get with a small-volume automaker. Brash and fast, or quiet and refined, at the driver's whim, the Urus is the ultimate performance SUV.

Cons

Easily recognizable switchgear and parts from less exclusive Audis

What's new

The Urus S replaces the base model
Higher-performance Urus Performante debuts
Slight power increase
Part of the first Urus generation introduced for 2019

Overview

When it comes to performance SUVs, it doesn't really get much better than the 2023 Lamborghini Urus. How's that? Well, to start, the Urus' V8 helps make it quicker than most sports cars. It also is shockingly composed and grippy around turns and has enough Lamborghini-based styling elements to make it look Italian, even if much of its underlying structure hails from Germany.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2023 Lamborghini Urus S 4dr SUV AWD (4.0L 8cyl Turbo 8A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $4.45 per gallon for premium unleaded in Ohio.}

Changes are afoot for the 2023 Urus. First off, there are now two models to choose from: the Urus S and the Urus Performante. Both are powered by the same twin-turbo V8 engine as last year, but output has been increased by 16 horsepower to 657 hp. The Performante goes on a weight-saving crusade, shaving off 103 pounds through the help of lightweight carbon-fiber body components. It also gets a lowered adaptive sport suspension for even more capable cornering, some aerodynamic enhancements for greater high-speed stability, and a new Rally driving mode, which sends more power to the rear wheels to let the Urus drift through off-road corners.

The Urus doesn't have many rivals, though the Aston Martin DBX707 and Ferrari Purosangue can serve as credible alternatives to the Lamborghini. Otherwise, you can shop the performance-tuned versions of more popular luxury SUVs such as the Audi RS Q8, BMW X6 M and Porsche Cayenne Turbo. (Notably, the Audi and Porsche are related to the Urus.) The Bentley Bentayga may also catch your eye, but it emphasizes luxury and comfort instead of outright speed. Read the Edmunds Expert Rating below for all the ins and outs of this flamboyant super SUV.

Rated for you by America's best test team.

Performance

9.0/10

How does the Urus drive? You'd expect staggeringly quick acceleration and riotous, high-limit handling from a Lamborghini, and the Urus does not disappoint. At our test track it posted numbers that fall in line with some of the quickest vehicles we've ever tested. We measured a 3.3-second sprint to 60 mph, a 11.4-second quarter-mile pass and 1.03 lateral g average on our skidpad.

Also impressive is that the Urus can generate these extreme performance figures without hurting its day-to-day drivability. The steering is accurate and properly weighted, and the engine doles out the power right when you want it. The sole annoyance we noticed during our evaluation was the noisy and clunky antilock braking during our 60-0 mph test. We'd expect more refinement in a vehicle like this.

Comfort

8.5/10

How comfortable is the Urus? It's remarkable that the Urus makes no perceptible compromises to comfort. The front seats are exemplary in their pampering with heating, ventilation and massage functions. The optional rear captain's chairs ensure adequate lateral support for the entire family too. Climate functions are likewise quiet and powerful.

The cabin is quiet in the standard drive modes. But select the Sport or Corsa mode, and the sound of the engine and exhaust makes a welcome appearance. The ride is flat and composed in the standard drive mode aside from the occasional thunk over bumpy surfaces (likely exacerbated by the 22-inch wheels on our test car).

Interior

8.0/10

How’s the interior? Getting in is easy thanks to the relatively generous door openings and friendly ride height in this streamlined SUV. Wheel and seat adjustment ranges should suit occupants of most sizes, and those on the larger side of the spectrum will find no shortage of interior space. Large mirrors and generous windows make exterior visibility mostly a nonissue.

The central entertainment screen is split in two — the upper screen controls the majority of features (navigation and audio, for example) and the bottom is for the climate controls. The touch-sensitive parts of the displays are generally large, making them easier to adjust when driving. Similarly, the large and chunky reverse and drive mode levers are satisfying.

Technology

8.5/10

How’s the tech? Each of the Urus' three primary displays present clear and easy-to-read graphics. The voice controls respond to natural language and support your phone when using Android Auto or Apple CarPlay. Connectivity includes four USB ports total (although no USB-C), wireless charging and four 12-volt outlets. The clarity and presence from the optional 21-speaker Bang & Olufsen stereo make it a worthy upgrade.

As for driver's aids, the proximity sensors proved a touch sensitive at first, but you can adjust their intensity. Extensive exterior cameras help reduce the chance of curbing a wheel or a bumper, and the adaptive cruise control reacts smoothly and effectively.

Storage

7.5/10

How’s the storage? It's adequate for an SUV of this size and sporty intent. In a nice touch, you can raise and lower the rear suspension from the cargo area, but the optional second-row captain's chairs don't fold down and consequently limit cargo-area flexibility. We fit a reverse-facing car seat without issue and minimal impact to front seat comfort.

The front and rear seating areas each offer two cupholders, and the front and rear door pockets can easily hold large water bottles. While front occupants don't have a large storage area under the armrest, there's a pocket behind the center console that can accommodate a small handbag.

Fuel Economy

6.0/10

How’s the fuel economy? The Urus get an EPA-estimated 14 mpg combined (12 city/17 highway). While that seems low, it's pretty typical for SUVs that offer 600 to 700 horsepower.

Value

7.0/10

Is the Urus a good value? Most in this small group of SUVs that cost a quarter of a million prioritize luxury, and the Urus is currently the only one that also delivers a supercar-like experience. Like the others, the Urus offers an exceptional array of exterior and interior customization choices, and the resulting interior materials, from leather to fabrics, are gorgeous. (What's also noteworthy is that its closest competitor in terms of price, the Bentley Bentayga, uses the same underlying structure and electronics as the Urus.)

The bumper-to-bumper warranty of three years/unlimited miles is somewhat lacking compared to competitors. Maintenance is included during that warranty period as well. A small interior trim piece did fall off the inner door handle on our test car.

Wildcard

10.0/10

You have certain expectations when you're buying or experiencing a Lamborghini, and the Urus handily delivers with bold styling and a range of bright color options. That character remains consistent throughout the interior too (as long as you ignore the Audi-sourced switchgear).

But the Urus' true success is a driving experience that is far more engaging and delightful than it needs to be. This is a shockingly good vehicle to drive quickly on a mountain road, and its unending thrust and barking exhaust provide endless entertainment for the driver and all occupants.

Which Urus does Edmunds recommend?

We're confident the vast majority of drivers would gladly take any Lamborghini Urus, and the "entry-level" Urus S will easily satisfy the most performance-hungry shoppers. That said, we also know Lambo shoppers, and they'll likely hunger for the Performante. Since it only costs another $35,000, we really can't fault them for wanting the ultimate version.

Lamborghini Urus models

The 2023 Lamborghini Urus is available in two trim levels: the Urus S and Urus Performante. Both are powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine (657 horsepower, 627 lb-ft of torque) paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Full-time all-wheel drive is also standard.

In the end, we chose a brand new Performante -- the one actually featured in the 2023 NYC Car Show. We have never looked back.

Lamborghini Urus vs. Aston Martin DBX

With 707 horsepower and a claimed run to 60 mph in 3.3 seconds, the Aston Martin DBX707 is an intriguing rival to the Lamborghini Urus. The DBX and Urus are similarly sized, but where the Lamborghini is all sharp edges and intricate detailing, the Aston Martin adopts a softer, more sophisticated appearance that blends classic luxury and elegance with exceptional performance.

Lamborghini Urus vs. Audi RS Q8

If you want a Lamborghini Urus but haven't got the scratch to afford it, consider the Audi RS Q8. They have plenty in common, from their vehicle platforms and turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine to some of their switchgear and technology. While the Audi isn't as powerful and doesn't look and feel as special as the Lamborghini, the RS Q8 is also nearly half the price of the Urus.

Lamborghini Urus vs. Bentley Bentayga

Spend a little more than you might on the Lamborghini, and you can get yourself a Bentley Bentayga Speed with a turbocharged 6.0-liter W12 engine that makes 626 hp. Its performance numbers, say Bentley, are even in the same neighborhood. But speed aside, a Bentayga is something else entirely, emphasizing plush, uncompromising luxury instead of rushed, uncompromising performance.
