Lamborghini Urus SUV Reportedly Confirmed for Production


We get why Lamborghini would want to make an SUV, slowly turning the brand into a second Porsche, if you will, as it will allow it to concentrate on developing really good sports cars, while making the bulk of its profits from an off-roader and possibly a luxury sedan.

Furthermore, they can do one better than Porsche, in fact, because they can argue that they have tradition on their side, having previously built another high-powered and exclusive SUV, called the LM002, of which they made 328 examples from 1986 to 1993.

The car you see pictured here is the Senova D sedan from China's Beijing Automotive Industry Holding Co. or simply BAIC, and under its body shell, elements of which will likely remind you of several other cars, is the platform and engine technology from the previous generation Saab 9-5, the rights for which the company acquired from General Motors in 2009.
