Lamborghini Urus SE Performante (2026) Price & Specs
The new Lamborghini Urus SE Performante is headed to South Africa as the most powerful iteration of the Italian firm’s super-SUV yet. Here’s what it will cost…
- Performante variant coming to SA
- V8 PHEV set-up generates 596 kW
- Most powerful Urus derivative yet
- Maximum speed listed as 312 kph
- To cost R625k more than Urus SE
The new Lamborghini Urus SE Performante is on the way to South Africa as the most powerful version of the Sant’Agata Bolognese-based automaker’s super-SUV yet. And we now know how much this new flagship Urus will cost.
Courtesy of a timely heads-up from the vehicle-information specialists over at duoporta.com, we can confirm the new Urus SE Performante will be priced from R5 500 000 in South Africa. For the record, that’s some R625 000 more than the Urus SE (588 kW/950 Nm) that arrived here in mid-2024.
Like that model, the new Performante variant employs a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) powertrain featuring a twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 petrol engine paired with an electric motor (the latter positioned “upstream” of the 8-speed automatic transmission). However, this likewise all-wheel-drive flagship derivative’s system outputs have been hiked to 596 kW and 1 000 Nm.
That, of course, makes it the most powerful Urus yet. Lamborghini furthermore bills its new Performante-badged derivative as the “fastest super-SUV in the world”, listing a 0-100 kph time of 3.3 seconds (a tenth quicker than the SE), a 0-200 kph time of 10.8 seconds and a top speed of 312 kph. In addition, the 25.9 kWh lithium-ion battery pack affords the Urus SE Performante a claimed electric range of “over 60 km”.
What does the new Urus SE Performante cost in SA?
DERIVATIVE PRICE
Urus SE R4 875 000
Urus SE Performante R5 500 000
The prices above include a 3-year/unlimited kilometre warranty and a 3-year/100 000 km maintenance plan.

Lamborghini Urus Performante review: Brashest Lambo gets more thrilling AND more sensible
Super-SUV yet gains new active air suspension tech and '6D' sensor tech for physics-fighting performance
Lamborghini has combined the Urus SE's plug-in hybrid powertrain with its latest motorsport learnings to create the new Urus SE Performante, an 800bhp super-SUV that benefits not only from grip-boosting aerodynamics but also new physics-fighting chassis technology.
Blending twin-turbocharged V8 power with an electric motor and new dual-chamber air suspension, the SE Performante has more explosive power and better body control than the old, purely petrol-powered Performante. Even so, the claims of a 3.3sec 0-62mph time and a 50% reduction in body roll tell only half the story.
With a 25.9kWh battery nestled under the boot floor, this Urus is a PHEV with a 37-mile EV range, and while that has inevitably led to a weight gain, it’s also slipperier through the air than before. Aerodynamic additions include a larger front splitter beneath a wider grille, which is shaped to reduce lift as well as force more air over the engine. S-duct air intakes, Naca ducts and slits in the bodywork cool components including the carbon-ceramic brakes.
The side bears more prominent skirts, while the rear gains a bigger spoiler and new rear wing, which work together to generate downforce. Despite the rear’s muscle, it’s the front that generates most of the SE Performante’s 14% of extra downforce. But key to its efficiency is that these changes also help to enable a 3% reduction in aerodynamic drag. As far as the air is concerned, this is a more slender car than before.
That said, tracks that are stretched by 16mm means it’s definitely wider on the road, with new 22in and 23in wheels enhancing the Urus’s already muscular stance under a set of carbonfibre wheel arches. But like all of the other visible additions, there’s a performance purpose to the changes, the engineers having been freed to pursue more mechanical grip by the boosted body control coming from the air suspension.
