Lamborghini Urus SE now in Malaysia, RM1.028 million before taxes and options


LESS than two months after making its debut at Auto Shanghai 2024, the Lamborghini Urus SE has now been launched in Malaysia at a price of RM1,028,000 before taxes, duties and customisations.
The Urus SE is not a special edition model as some may have thought, but rather a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) model based on the Urus S.
It features a new design, optimised aerodynamics, and a new hybrid powertrain that not only offers the highest output in its lineup but also reduces emissions by up to 80%.
Powering the Urus SE is a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine with 620 PS and 800 Nm, paired with an electric motor on the rear axle generating 192 PS and 483 Nm. When combined, the powertrain generates total of 800 PS and 950 Nm.
With an 8-speed automatic transmission, it can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.4 seconds (0.1 seconds faster than the Urus S) and achieve a maximum speed of 312 km/h (7 km/h faster than the Urus S).
Six existing driving modes from the Urus S (Strada, Sport, Corsa, Neve, Sabbia, and Terra) are now accompanied by four new Electric Performance Strategies (EPS) modes: EV Drive, Hybrid, Performance, and Recharge.
In EV Drive, a 25.9-kWh lithium-ion battery located under the floor and above the rear differential provides a driving range of over 60 km and a maximum speed of 135 km/h.
Depending on the driving mode selected, the vehicle’s air springs adjust for ground clearance, with travel ranging from 15 mm in Corsa up to 75 mm when the lifting system is activated.
Styling-wise, the Urus SE sports a new bonnet with a floating design, as well as newly designed matrix LED headlights, bumper, front grille, taillights and diffuser. The addition of a new spoiler increases the rear downforce by 35%, while new under-body air vents and revamped air ducts improve air cooling by 30%.
The cabin has also been updated, now featuring a larger 12.3-inch screen, as well as new seats and dashboard. The mechanical pushbutton panel gives a more tactile feel.
Needless to say, Lamborghini offers a wide range of customisation options. For instance, there are three dedicated P Zeros tyre, from 21 to 23 inches, to meet customers’ different requirements for comfort and sportiness.
Customers can also choose from over 100 exterior colours (including two new colours, Arancio Egon and Bianco Sapphirus), as well as 47 colour combinations and four types of embroidery for the interior.

Life’s too short to argue about which car is the best. Drive whatever you like, as long as you’re happy with it.
