History
History of the Lamborghini Urus
The Urus, launched in 2018, is Lamborghini's super-SUV and the model that transformed the company by multiplying its sales. Combining the raised stance and practicality of a five-seat SUV with supercar-worthy performance, it appeals to a broader, more family-oriented clientele looking for daily, all-weather use. Offered in S, Performante and then plug-in hybrid SE versions, it shares its platform with other high-end SUVs of the Volkswagen Group. It is the most versatile Lamborghini, and the most relevant one for the Quebec winter thanks to its all-wheel drive and ground clearance. In Quebec, approved winter tires are essential and mandatory, with the Urus accepting 21- to 23-inch wheels, often downsized for the cold season.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Les Lamborghini chaussent des pneus de très grand diamètre et à profil bas, avec montage étagé (pneus arrière plus larges que l'avant) sur les modèles sport. L'Urus utilise couramment des jantes de 21, 22 et 23 pouces. Les voitures sport comme la Huracán emploient des dimensions ultra-performance en 19-20 pouces. L'entraxe (bolt pattern) le plus fréquent est en 5 trous, partagé avec d'autres modèles du groupe Volkswagen. Au Québec, le passage à des pneus d'hiver homologués est essentiel et obligatoire : il faut privilégier des dimensions hiver adaptées, souvent sur jantes de diamètre inférieur, pour préserver l'adhérence par temps froid.
