THE 2025 LAMBORGHINI URUS SE IS A 790-HORSEPOWER HYPER SUV

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Lamborghini Urus SE marks a significant evolution for the brand's hyper-SUV, introducing its first plug-in hybrid powertrain. This new SE variant boasts an astonishing 790 horsepower, achieved by combining a twin-turbo V8 with an electric motor, enabling a 0-60 mph sprint in just 3 seconds. The reviewer highlights the immense power and the surprisingly dynamic driving experience, noting its precise steering and agile handling that rivals exotic sports cars, all while maintaining a compliant ride for an SUV. Key interior features include a fighter-jet-like start button, a unique reverse lever, and extensive use of hexagonal design elements, though many switchgear components are shared with Audi. The reviewer praises the impressive performance and practicality, including ample rear-seat space and a usable cargo area. However, the vehicle's flashy nature, loud exhaust, and high price point (starting around $262,000, with the reviewed example reaching nearly $360,000 with options) mean it's not for the inconspicuous driver. Despite its SUV practicality, the Urus SE is fundamentally a showy, high-performance machine designed to stand out.
