And I thought the Jaguar F-Pace SVR was a hefty beast.

The Lamborghini Urus, on the other hand, weighs in at 4,844 pounds before you tack on luxury options. This is a solid 300 pounds more than the F-Pace and boy does it feel it. Though, it also feels fast. Its 0-60 mph time of 3.2 seconds is frankly astonishing, and I’m still having trouble wrapping my head around all that weight hitting this benchmark in so little time.
The car looks, feels, and is simply massive. But it’s quicker than the vast majority of cars on the road. Though it also costs considerably more than the vast majority of the cars on the road, so there’s that.
I guess if there’s one word to describe this Italo-German behemoth, it’s excess. Excess in weight, stats, price, and visual impact. Throwing down such a mighty sum of coin to roll around in this color combination takes someone who’s not afraid of showing off a little green. Pun thoroughly intended. And honestly, good on ’em, because it’s an excessive amount of fun as well.
