Lamborghini Urus ST-X Concept: the first Super SUV for racing


During the 2018 World Finals, #lamborghini Squadra Corse unveils the #urusstx #concept, the #racing version of the first Super #suv in the brand’s history. The vision is a car conceived for an innovative single-brand championship that combines race circuit and off-road track. The new format will debut in 2020 in Europe and the Middle East on specially prepared FIA-approved circuits, with an “arrive and drive” formula designed to offer driver-customers a complete package including car and technical support during the race weekends.

The #urusstx #concept applies #lamborghini Squadra Corsa’s motorsport experience to a brand new segment. Compared to the production model, the #urusstx #concept has been mechanically optimized and equipped with all the FIA-approved safety elements, including steel roll cage, fire suppression system, and FT3 fuel tank. Aesthetically, the #urusstx #concept is characterized by the matt Verde Mantis (green) livery in addition to the hood in visible carbon fiber.

Larger air intakes optimize the cooling of the V8 twin-turbo engine that is capable of delivering 650 CV and 850 Nm of torque. The overall look is completed by the rear wing, the lateral #racing exhausts with a new hexagonal design, and 21” single-nut aluminum alloy wheels fitted with Pirelli tires. The development of the #racing configuration has also led to a 25% weight reduction compared with the production model.

The light weight, along with the raised set-up and torsional stiffening provided by a roll cage integrated in the frame, contribute to making the #urusstx #concept a race car for track and off-road use without compromise. Its track debut will take place during the 2019 #lamborghini World Finals.
