    Rumorpile: Lamborghini's New SUV To Carry Name Of Urus

    The Lamborghini SUV that we been hearing for the longest time will make its debut shortly at next week's Beijing Auto Show will have a name. Chinese Media is reporting the name of the SUV will be the Urus.

    We'll save you the trip to Google: a "urus" is an extinct European ox, Bos primigenius, a forebearer of domestic cattle whose last example roamed the Polish forests until 1627. So, the name somehow keeps up with Lamborghini's tradition with naming their cars after oxen.

    The Urus is rumored to have a a reworked ten-cylinder powerplant from the Gallardo producing 584 HP, and a $200,000 price tag.

    Expect the Lamborghini Urus to arrive sometime in 2017.

    • Interesting China only focused EV / EREV plan. Hyundai first 4 door sedan is different. Hyundai Motor Reaffirms China Commitment at Auto China 2026, Unveils IONIQ V as First Step in New Product Offensive 20 new models in 5 years for China At least some auto company is willing to step up and compete against China, not the Americans.
    • Battery pack has not changed, so no weight gain from the battery pack. For those in fear of running out of battery, they then pay for the generator and gas tank so the weight there is the gain. I agree with you that with 404 miles of range, the Generator or what is being called EREV in the industry is not needed and waste of battery range due to the weight increase of the ICE motor / gas tank. Sorry to owners of older Teslas — your car won't be fully autonomous We'll I wonder how many folks will sue Musk / Tesla since he has always promised that all Tesla will be autonomous and now they have to replace the computer system and camera's of hardware 3 to go to hardware 4 to make them autonomous. Honestly this is still a lie since without LiDAR and other tools, Tesla will never be approved for level 5 self-driving. GM, Mercedes are already ahead of Tesla. Kia/Hyundai/Genesis has new L2+ and L3 modes coming. Tesla is old tech dying based on lies imho. Seems China is embracing the U.S. love of all things BIG BRICK SUV/TRUCKS. Chinese cars go American with 'brutish' SUVs and trucks
