Lamborghini Urus is seen as a posh SUV, not as a performance vehicle or even as a car that can reach difficult terrain. To prove wrong, Lamborghini Urus has unlocked the highest drivable road in the world at the top of the Umling La Pass in India’s Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir, which is 19,300ft above sea level.
Built by the Border Roads Organisation (BRO), the Umling La Pass is a remarkable feat of engineering carried out by the BRO under weather conditions where the minimum temperature ranges from -20 degrees to -10 degrees. With extremely thin air density, the unpredictable road terrain combines gravel, rough and concrete surfaces with a wind speed varying from 40-80 km/h, making it one of the most challenging and difficult roads to conquer.
Lamborghini Urus is the first Super Sport Utility Vehicle in the world that combines the soul of a super sports car with the functionality of an SUV. Powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine producing 650 CV and 850 Nm of torque, Urus accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 305 km/h.
