Automobili Lamborghini took part in the Days of Speed ​​on frozen Lake Baikal for the first time with the Lamborghini Urus Super SUV and set the 1000 meter record after starting from a standing start and an average speed of 114 km / h under extreme conditions. The Urus, driven by 18-time Russian Days of Speed ​​record holder Andrey Leontyev, reached an impressive top speed of 298 km / h during his record sprint despite the significant warming of the ice layer on the deepest lake in the world. In practice, the top speed of the super SUV was as much as 302 km / h. The official data recorded by the FIA ​​and the Russian Automobile Federation RAF will be released in April.

High speed record

The Lamborghini Urus has impressively demonstrated its outstanding performance and sensational maneuverability on ice despite the reduced traction due to the slippery conditions and strong gusts of wind.

"Lamborghini repeatedly sets itself ambitious and daring goals in order to underpin the unique performance standards that we apply to our products and to confirm the innovative strength and technical superiority of our super sports cars. This extreme challenge has once again proven that the Urus Super SUV delivers the performance expected from a Lamborghini in terms of acceleration, top speed and handling in order to conquer any terrain: whether on the highway, off-road or even on ice. We are eagerly awaiting the publication of the official Urus results", Explains Konstantin Sychev, Head of Lamborghini Eastern Europe and CIS.

The Lamborghini Urus has a 4,0 liter V8 biturbo engine with 650 hp at 6000 rpm (maximum speed of 6800 rpm) and a maximum torque of 850 Nm at 2250 rpm. With 162,7 hp / l the Urus has the highest specific output in its class and with 3,38 kg / hp the best power-to-weight ratio. The Urus accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in 3,6 seconds, from 0 to 200 km / h in 12,8 seconds and is one of the fastest super SUVs with a top speed of 305 km / h.
