SPIED: There's A New Lamborghini Urus Performante Lapping Nürburgring

Urus Facelift Getting More Hardcore In 2022, Lamborghini launched the Urus Performante with 657 horsepower, but last year, the facelift of the immensely popular Urus brought with it a hybrid powertrain for the first time in the Urus SE, and that blew the Performante out of the water. Still equipped with a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8, the SE added a permanent-magnet synchronous electric motor with 189 hp to the eight-speed transmission for a total of 789 hp, allowing it to achieve similar lap times to the Performante. But now our spies have caught a more extreme Urus testing at the Nürburgring, indicating that Lamborghini wants to further raise the bar. 800 hp? That sounds perfect for a new Raging Bull, but more may well be offered. Subtle Styling Changes Set Performante Apart At the front, the new headlights with their smoother shape and revised DRLs sit above an entirely reworked front end, though the changes are difficult to spot if you're not a fanatic. The lower side intakes are connected to the headlights with a more vertical strake than the regular Urus SE, while the lower spoiler also appears to be larger. The lower intake seems slimmer, but it's also taller. Moving down the side, it seems that the side skirts may have been lightly restyled, while the rear of the super SUV reveals a subtle ducktail spoiler, a taller diffuser element, and a roof-mounted spoiler, which appears to have bolts to allow for varying angles of attack. This spoiler looks very similar (if not identical) to the one on the old Performante, and we can expect new wheels when the production version is revealed. Other New Lambos In The Pipeline The Urus has been a core pillar of Lamborghini's remarkable sales figures, which show no signs of dropping, so it makes sense to keep offering the super SUV. However, the Italian automaker recognizes that saturating the market with too much of a good thing can hurt the appeal of its range, so no more SUVs are planned besides the brand's first EV, which is currently scheduled to arrive near the end of the decade. In the meantime, Lamborghini recently announced that a new 'few-off' supercar will make its debut at Monterey Car Week, and it's expected to be the most powerful Lambo ever made. Presumably, the new Urus Performante will debut shortly thereafter, in time for the 2026 model year, but with the current Urus seeing its entire 2025 production run sold out before the year began, getting your hands on any new Lambo won't be easy.

However, what makes the SE stand out is the integration of a plug-in hybrid system featuring a 25.9kWh lithium-ion battery. Together with the electric motor, the total system output jumps to a staggering 800 hp and 950 Nm.
