Urus SE Performante: 0-60 & Specs (2026)
Lamborghini unveiled the Urus SE Performante on July 1, 2026, calling it the "world's fastest Super SUV." The claim refers to top speed — a manufacturer-stated 194 mph (313 kph) — not 0-60 acceleration. With 812 combined system horsepower from a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 paired with a 155-hp front-axle hybrid motor, the Performante is the most powerful Urus variant ever produced.
Here is the full breakdown: what it actually does to 60 mph, where it really ranks in the Super SUV hierarchy, and what that "world's fastest" title means in practice.
Urus SE Performante Specs at a Glance
| Spec | Value |
|---|---|
| Combined system power | 812 hp |
| V8 output (4.0L twin-turbo) | 657 hp |
| Front e-motor | 155 hp |
| 0-100 kph (manufacturer claim) | ~3.3s |
| 0-60 mph (estimated) | ~3.1–3.2s |
| Top speed | 194 mph (313 kph) |
| Drivetrain | Hybrid AWD (PHEV) |
| Curb weight | ~4,860 lbs |
| EV-only range | ~38 miles |
| Starting price | ~$300,000+ (est.) |
Lamborghini publishes a 0-100 kph (62 mph) time, not a 0-60 mph figure. Converting the rollover point shaves roughly 0.1-0.2 seconds — so expect an equivalent 0-60 mph around 3.1-3.2 seconds. Independent GPS testing on production cars will establish the precise number.
What Changed from the Urus SE?
The SE Performante adds three targeted upgrades to the hybrid Urus SE platform:
Power: The twin-turbo V8's boost and fueling maps were revised, lifting combined output from 789 hp to 812 hp. The front e-motor output stays at 155 hp.
Chassis: Ride height drops 10 mm and the spring and damper rates are re-tuned for sharper turn-in. New aero bodywork — revised front splitter, wider rear diffuser, and a revised roofline spoiler — cuts drag while adding 20% more downforce versus the SE.
Top speed: The remap and aero changes push the claimed top speed from 190 mph to 194 mph, backing Lamborghini's "world's fastest Super SUV" marketing.
The 0-60 improvement over the standard Urus SE is marginal. The Performante is primarily an aerodynamic and high-speed performance upgrade, not a sprint-time upgrade.
How It Ranks Against Super SUV Rivals
The honest ranking, sorted by 0-60 mph:
| SUV | 0-60 mph | Top Speed | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tesla Model X Plaid | 2.5s | 163 mph | $98,000 |
| Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT | 2.7s† | 186 mph | $178,000 |
| Rivian R1S Quad-Motor | 2.9s | 135 mph | $92,000 |
| Lamborghini Urus SE Performante | ~3.1–3.2s (est.) | 194 mph | ~$300,000+ |
| Aston Martin DBX707 | 3.1s | 193 mph | $245,000 |
| Ferrari Purosangue | 3.3s | 193 mph | $395,000 |
| Lamborghini Urus S | 3.3s | 190 mph | $233,000 |
†Car and Driver GPS-timed from a true standstill. Lamborghini's 3.3s uses a 0-100 kph measurement; the equivalent 0-60 mph is estimated at 3.1–3.2s.
The Urus SE Performante wins outright on top speed. It does not lead the field to 60 mph — a $98,000 Tesla Model X Plaid and a $178,000 Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT both get there first. That context is absent from Lamborghini's marketing.
For buyers who want a Lamborghini with genuine supercar-level launch performance, the comparison table above is the one to know.
The Hybrid System Explained
The Urus SE Performante uses a parallel plug-in hybrid layout: a traditional 8-speed torque-converter automatic drives the rear wheels, and a 155-hp electric motor on the front axle fills in torque at low speeds and during launch. This makes it an AWD vehicle with electric torque-fill precisely where it matters most for 0-60 — the first 20 mph where combustion engines build boost and clutches engage.
Unlike a Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid (which uses a larger battery for longer EV range), the Urus SE Performante calibrates the electric system primarily for performance, not range. The result is a more aggressive launch feel with roughly 38 miles of pure EV capability as a secondary benefit.
Sport Plus mode keeps the combustion engine active and routes torque rear-biased for a traditional super-SUV character. The front motor can also actively vector torque between axles during cornering.
Measuring Your Real 0-60 vs. the Manufacturer Claim
Lamborghini's 3.3s figure is measured to 100 kph on a prepared surface with a professional driver. On normal asphalt with standard technique, real-world times land 0.3-0.5 seconds slower than any manufacturer claim. A GPS timer measuring from a genuine dead stop will typically add another 0.1-0.2 seconds compared to the rollout-assisted 0-100 kph method.
FastTrack measures your exact 0-60, quarter mile, and rolling-start times from a true standstill using your iPhone's GPS and accelerometer — no additional hardware required. Log your runs, track how mods or temperature affect your times, and see where your SUV ranks against others on the leaderboards.
FAQ
What is the Lamborghini Urus SE Performante 0-60 time?
Lamborghini publishes a 0-100 kph (62 mph) time of approximately 3.3 seconds, not a 0-60 mph figure. The equivalent 0-60 mph is estimated at 3.1-3.2 seconds. That estimate will be confirmed when independent outlets GPS-test production cars.
Is the Urus SE Performante the fastest Super SUV?
Lamborghini's "world's fastest Super SUV" claim refers to top speed (194 mph). In a 0-60 sprint, the Tesla Model X Plaid (2.5s) and Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT (2.7s GPS-tested) both accelerate faster to 60 mph than the Urus SE Performante's estimated 3.1-3.2s.
Is the Urus SE Performante faster than the standard Urus SE?
Marginally at the top end. The Performante adds 23 hp over the Urus SE (812 vs. 789 combined hp), drops 10 mm of ride height, and adds aero that increases downforce by 20%. The 0-60 improvement is small; the primary gain is a higher top speed (194 mph vs. 190 mph) and sharper high-speed dynamics.
How much does the Urus SE Performante cost?
Lamborghini has not confirmed a US MSRP at launch. Based on the Urus SE's starting price (~$257,000) and the Performante's additional engineering, expect a final price above $300,000 once deliveries begin.
What is the difference between the Urus SE and the Urus SE Performante?
Power increases from 789 hp to 812 hp. Suspension drops 10 mm and is recalibrated for sharper response. New aero bodywork adds 20% more downforce. Top speed rises from 190 mph to 194 mph. EV range and the core hybrid architecture remain essentially unchanged.
