The Urus ST-X Concept applies Lamborghini Squadra Corsa’s motorsport experience to a brand new segment. Compared to the production model, the Urus ST-X Concept has been mechanically optimized and equipped with all the FIA-approved safety elements, including steel roll cage, fire suppression system, and FT3 fuel tank. Aesthetically, the Urus ST-X Concept is characterized by the matt Verde Mantis (green) livery in addition to the hood in visible carbon fiber. Larger air intakes optimize the cooling of the V8 twin-turbo engine that is capable of delivering 650 CV and 850 Nm of torque. The overall look is completed by the rear wing, the lateral racing exhausts with a new hexagonal design, and 21” single-nut aluminum alloy wheels fitted with Pirelli tires.
With just hours left before this year’s season kicks off, three-time MotoGP world champion and SEAT ambassador Jorge Lorenzo is making a final sprint in his training workouts. His recipe for going into the competition in top shape includes cycling, the gym and his SEAT Leon CUPRA. Jorge cycles up the Ordino-Arcalís mountain pass in Andorra twice a week to get himself used to performing at 170 beats per minute, the same heart rate needed to compete in a Grand Prix event. This is how Jorge Lorenzo prepares for the World Championship MotoGP.
The Urus SE offers an unparalleled driving experience also thanks to the plug-in hybrid system, which helps to improve the vehicle’s performance and dynamics on any surface and in any condition: more torque and power at any rpm is provided by way of innovative technical solutions such as the introduction of the electric torque vectoring system between the two axles, and the electronic rear differential.The twin-turbo 4.0 V8 engine has been re-engineered to work in optimal synergy with the electric powertrain. It develops 620 CV of power (456 kW) and 800 Nm of driving torque; the combustion unit is combined with an electric powertrain delivering 192 CV (141 kW) and 483 Nm of torque. In delivering maximum output the main focus has been on the calibration strategy between ICE and e-motor, reaching a total output of 800 CV to ensure an optimal power curve in every driving mode and on every surface. A 25.9-kWh lithium-ion battery is situated below the load floor and above the electronically-controlled rear differential.The permanent-magnet synchronous electric motor located inside the 8-speed automatic transmission can act as a boost for the V8 combustion engine but also as a traction element, making the Urus SE a 100% electric 4WD vehicle capable of traveling more than 60 km in EV mode.Debuting on the Urus SE is the new centrally-located longitudinal electric torque vectoring system with an electro-hydraulic multi-plate clutch, which distributes driving torque variably and continuously between the front and rear axles. The transfer case works in synergy with the new electronic limited-slip differential installed on the rear axle, giving the vehicle “on demand” oversteering to convey the feel of a purebred super sports car.

A Courchevel winter escape saw the lifestyle Urus S starring in the luxury resort together with the Huracán Sterrato: the first all-terrain super sports car with a V10 engine. The two Lamborghini models covered over 200 kilometres in one of the world’s largest linked ski area, Les Trois Vallées. The mountain roads, stunning snow-covered panoramas, haute horlogerie and hospitality excellence mixed with the highest levels of performance and driving enjoyment, took guests on a memorable journey.The special rendez-vous immersed guests into the Italian super sports brand and a deep dive into the masterpieces manufactured in Sant’Agata Bolognese. A watchmaking experience with Roger Dubuis, Lamborghini Squadra Corse partner, demonstrated what it means to build horological masterpieces, highlighting the new Excalibur Spider Monobalancier Huracán.Guests stayed in one of the world's best resorts, the ultra-exclusive Le K2 Palace, reflecting the luxury features that distinguish Automobili Lamborghini in the world of super sports cars. The hotel, a jewel in the Himalayan-inspired "Le K2 Collections", is framed by the mountains and perfectly integrated into the landscape. The hotel overlooks the Trois Vallées offering incredible panoramic views and direct access to the ski slopes. Guests dined in L’Altitude and Bottkeneck restaurants, with their Tibetan–inspired decor combining charm and excellence and a culinary experience combining a reinvention of traditional French cuisine; the best artisan French cheeses; and extraordinary dessert creations that resonate with gourmets around the world.
