Lamborghini Urus SE (2024) Price & Specs
How much will the new 588 kW Lamborghini Urus SE – the first PHEV version of the Italian firm’s high-performance SUV – cost in South Africa? We have local pricing…
Revealed in April 2024, the new Lamborghini Urus SE is the very first plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) version of the Sant’Agata Bolognese-based firm’s high-performance SUV. And now, ahead of its arrival in South Africa, we can share pricing for this newcomer.
Thanks our ever-helpful friends over at duoporta.com, we can confirm that local orders for the Urus SE have opened, with a starting price of R4 875 000. Should the buyer wish to upgrade from the standard 3-year/100 000 km maintenance plan to a 5-year item, that starting figure rises to R5 075 000.
Interestingly, the Urus SE’s starting price sees it positioned between the Urus S (R4 550 000) and Urus Performante (R4 950 000), models we believe have effectively sold out. While each of those derivatives develops 490 kW and 850 Nm, the Urus SE’s total system outputs come in at a whopping 588 kW and 950 Nm, making it the most powerful Urus yet, by some margin.
Lamborghini says the twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 engine has been “re-engineered to work in optimal synergy” with an electric motor. In the Urus SE, the 8-cylinder mill alone generates 456 kW and 800 Nm, and combines with an electric motor offering 141 kW and 483 Nm. As a result, the plug-in version of the Urus sees off the 0-100 kph sprint in a claimed 3.4 seconds (a second slower than the lighter Urus Performante but a second quicker than the Urus S), before topping out at 312 kph.
With the permanent-magnet synchronous electric motor located inside the 8-speed automatic transmission, the motor can either add to the V8’s efforts or act as a traction element itself, driving all 4 wheels. Thanks to the 25.9 kWh lithium-ion battery positioned below the load floor (but above the electronically controlled rear differential), the Urus SE has an all-electric range of “more than” 60 km.
