Lamborghini Urus SUV Coming In 2016
Lamborghini Urus, the automaker's exocitic looking SUV concept, which was revealed to the world at last year's Beijing Auto Show, will see the light of day as a production model in late 2016, says Autocar. The revelation was made by none other than Rupert Stadler, Audi CEO. For those who do not know, Lamborghini is owned by Audi, which is in turn under the ownership of Volkswagen.
The Lamborghini Urus should be "signed off" "this year." "Lamborghini has to do it," said Stadler told Autocar during its annual press conference. "Because of the need to dovetail into production cycles, we should see the Urus in 2017."
