Which Lamborghini Urus Version Should You Buy?
The Lamborghini Urus choice comes down to four distinct specifications despite repeated version names.
The Lamborghini Urus choice comes down to four distinct specifications despite repeated version names. In the original generation, the 4.0 AT offers 650 hp and the broadest set of measured economy and clearance figures; the 4.0 AT S raises output to 666 hp while retaining a 305 km/h top speed; and the 4.0 AT Performante combines 666 hp with the quickest acceleration and highest top speed of that generation. From April 2024, the restyled range adds two versions both named 4.0 AT: the 666 hp Gasoline model is the fastest, while the heavier 620 hp Plug-in model reaches the highest top speed in the entire dataset. No price or sale data is supplied, so the comparison cannot determine which version costs less or whether any premium represents good monetary value.
Lamborghini Urus generations and versions
The Urus has one generation represented in two production phases. The original 1 generation ran from December 2017 through March 2024 as an SUV Coupe and contains three versions: 4.0 AT, 4.0 AT Performante, and 4.0 AT S.
The restyling belongs to that same generation rather than constituting a second generation. It began in April 2024, remains without a recorded stop date, and retains the SUV Coupe body. Its two versions share the exact database name 4.0 AT, so they must be distinguished by power and fuel type: one produces 620 hp and is Plug-in, while the other produces 666 hp and is Gasoline.
Lamborghini Urus engine specs and horsepower
Every version uses a 3,996 cc front-longitudinal engine with 8 cylinders in a V-shaped layout, Turbo boost, direct injection, an 8-speed Automatic gearbox, and AWD. The original 4.0 AT develops 650 hp and 850 Nm. Both later original-generation derivatives produce 666 hp and 850 Nm. In the restyled range, the Plug-in 4.0 AT produces 620 hp and 800 Nm, whereas the Gasoline 4.0 AT produces 666 hp and 850 Nm.
| Production phase and exact version | Power | Torque | Displacement | Fuel | Cylinders and layout | Boost | Gearbox | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Original: 4.0 AT | 650 hp | 850 Nm | 3,996 cc | Gasoline | 8, V-shaped | Turbo | 8-speed Automatic | AWD |
| Original: 4.0 AT Performante | 666 hp | 850 Nm | 3,996 cc | Gasoline | 8, V-shaped | Turbo | 8-speed Automatic | AWD |
| Original: 4.0 AT S | 666 hp | 850 Nm | 3,996 cc | Gasoline | 8, V-shaped | Turbo | 8-speed Automatic | AWD |
| Restyled: 4.0 AT, 620 hp | 620 hp | 800 Nm | 3,996 cc | Plug-in | 8, V-shaped | Turbo | 8-speed Automatic | AWD |
| Restyled: 4.0 AT, 666 hp | 666 hp | 850 Nm | 3,996 cc | Gasoline | 8, V-shaped | Turbo | 8-speed Automatic | AWD |
Calculated from the supplied displacement, the 650 hp 4.0 AT delivers about 162.7 hp per litre. Each 666 hp version delivers about 166.7 hp per litre, while the 620 hp Plug-in 4.0 AT delivers about 155.2 hp per litre. The 666 hp specifications therefore have the highest specific output.
The move from the original 650 hp 4.0 AT to either original 666 hp derivative adds 16 hp but no torque: all three produce 850 Nm. The restyled 620 hp Plug-in 4.0 AT gives up 46 hp and 50 Nm to the restyled 666 hp Gasoline 4.0 AT.
Lamborghini Urus performance and fuel economy
The data reports acceleration to 100 km/h, not 0–60 mph. A 0–60 mph time is therefore not measured for every version and should not be inferred from the supplied 0–100 km/h results.
| Production phase and exact version | 0–100 km/h | Top speed | City consumption | Highway consumption | Combined consumption |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Original: 4.0 AT | 3.6 s | 305 km/h | 16.7 L/100 km | 9.7 L/100 km | 12.3 L/100 km |
| Original: 4.0 AT Performante | 3.3 s | 306 km/h | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| Original: 4.0 AT S | 3.5 s | 305 km/h | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| Restyled: 4.0 AT, 620 hp | 3.4 s | 312 km/h | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| Restyled: 4.0 AT, 666 hp | 3.3 s | 306 km/h | not measured | not measured | 14.1 L/100 km |
Among the original versions, the 4.0 AT Performante is the performance choice. It reaches 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds, making it 0.3 seconds quicker than the 650 hp 4.0 AT and 0.2 seconds quicker than the 4.0 AT S. Its 306 km/h maximum is 1 km/h above both original alternatives.
The restyled 666 hp Gasoline 4.0 AT matches the 4.0 AT Performante at 3.3 seconds and 306 km/h. The restyled 620 hp Plug-in 4.0 AT takes 3.4 seconds but reaches 312 km/h, which is 6 km/h above the other restyled version and the highest recorded maximum here.
Fuel-consumption comparisons are limited because complete city, highway, and combined measurements exist only for the original 650 hp 4.0 AT. Its figures are 16.7 L/100 km in the city, 9.7 L/100 km on the highway, and 12.3 L/100 km combined. The restyled 666 hp Gasoline 4.0 AT has a measured combined figure of 14.1 L/100 km, 1.8 L/100 km higher than the original 4.0 AT, but its city and highway values are not measured. All consumption figures for the 4.0 AT Performante, 4.0 AT S, and restyled 620 hp Plug-in 4.0 AT are not measured.
Lamborghini Urus weight, clearance, tank, and wheel sizes
Gross weight is not measured for any version. Kerb weight, ground clearance, tank capacity, and recorded wheel sizes differ as follows.
| Production phase and exact version | Kerb weight | Gross weight | Ground clearance | Tank | Recorded wheel sizes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Original: 4.0 AT | 2,200 kg | not measured | 158 mm | 85 L | 285/45 R21, 315/40 R21, 285/35 R23, 325/30 R23 |
| Original: 4.0 AT Performante | 2,150 kg | not measured | 138 mm | 85 L | 285/45 R21, 315/40 R21, 285/40 R22, 325/35 R22, 285/35 R23, 325/30 R23 |
| Original: 4.0 AT S | 2,150 kg | not measured | 138 mm | 85 L | 285/45 R21, 315/40 R21, 285/40 R22, 325/35 R22, 285/35 R23, 325/30 R23 |
| Restyled: 4.0 AT, 620 hp | 2,505 kg | not measured | not measured | not measured | 285/45 R21, 315/40 R21 |
| Restyled: 4.0 AT, 666 hp | 2,150 kg | not measured | not measured | 75 L | 285/45 R21, 315/40 R21 |
The original 4.0 AT Performante and 4.0 AT S are each 50 kg lighter than the original 4.0 AT, but their measured clearance is 20 mm lower. All three have an 85 L tank. The restyled 666 hp Gasoline 4.0 AT is also 2,150 kg, while the 620 hp Plug-in 4.0 AT is 355 kg heavier.
Calculated weight per horsepower clarifies the differences. The original 650 hp 4.0 AT carries about 3.38 kg per hp. The original 4.0 AT Performante, original 4.0 AT S, and restyled 666 hp Gasoline 4.0 AT each achieve about 3.23 kg per hp. The restyled 620 hp Plug-in 4.0 AT carries about 4.04 kg per hp, the highest ratio in the range.
All versions use independent pneumatic suspension at both ends. The original three versions have ceramic ventilated front and rear brakes. Both restyled 4.0 AT versions have ventilated disc brakes front and rear.
Which Lamborghini Urus version should you choose?
Choose the original 4.0 AT if measured fuel-use data, higher recorded ground clearance, and an 85 L tank matter more than the quickest acceleration. It is the only version with complete city, highway, and combined consumption figures, and its 158 mm clearance exceeds the measured clearance of the 4.0 AT Performante and 4.0 AT S by 20 mm.
Choose the original 4.0 AT Performante for the strongest original-generation performance. It pairs 666 hp with a 2,150 kg kerb weight, reaches 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds, and tops out at 306 km/h. Compared with the original 4.0 AT S, it has identical power, torque, kerb weight, clearance, tank capacity, suspension, brakes, and listed wheel sizes, but it is 0.2 seconds quicker to 100 km/h and 1 km/h faster.
Choose the original 4.0 AT S if its 3.5-second acceleration is sufficient and you do not require the Performante’s small measured performance advantage. Price data is unavailable, however, so this catalogue cannot establish whether the 4.0 AT S offers better value.
Choose the restyled 666 hp Gasoline 4.0 AT for the best restyled power-to-weight result and the joint-fastest 0–100 km/h time in the dataset. Its 3.3-second result matches the original 4.0 AT Performante, and its 2,150 kg kerb weight is 355 kg below the restyled Plug-in version.
Choose the restyled 620 hp Plug-in 4.0 AT specifically for its Plug-in fuel type or its 312 km/h recorded top speed. It is 0.1 seconds slower to 100 km/h than the restyled Gasoline 4.0 AT, carries 46 hp and 50 Nm less, and weighs 355 kg more. Its fuel consumption, tank capacity, and ground clearance are not measured, so the supplied figures do not support claims about an economy or practicality advantage.
No Lamborghini Urus price, interior, reliability, problem, Mansory, engine-sale, or vehicle-for-sale information appears in the source data. Those points cannot be used to rank the versions. On the measurable specifications alone, the 4.0 AT Performante is the clearest original-generation performance choice, the restyled 666 hp Gasoline 4.0 AT offers the strongest restyled power-to-weight balance, and the restyled 620 hp Plug-in 4.0 AT is the top-speed choice.
