Lamborghini Urus Drag Races Huracan, Packs a Surprise

Ladies and gentlemen drag racers, the time has come to check out the sprinting abilities of the Lamborghini Urus for the first time. But with such an eccentric proposal, what is a proper opponent? Well, at least for now, that title goes to another Raging Bull, namely a Huracan.

The Lamborghinis got together on an airfield, which means they had all the space they needed to stretch their mechanical legs.

With the exception of the Huracan's rear wing, which actually worked against the V10 animal at high speed, both the supercar and the super-SUV came in factory stock form, so we're looking at 610 against 650 ponies.

It all kicked off with a good old standing start and this is the part that drew our attention the most - if you happen to be behind the wheel of a Huracan and a Urus lines up next to you, you might have a few reasons to fret.

The power-to-weight ratio favors your supercar and since both machines pack all-paw hardware, the SUV won't have any advantage here. However, invincibility is not on the list of Huracan options...

Of course, a rolling race was also held, so the piece of footage at the bottom of the page, which documents this friendly fire adventure, will give you a complete take on the matter.

Given the fact that the Huracan lineup also includes the LP580-2, which not only packs less juice, but also comes in rear-wheel-drive form, we're looking forward to bringing you a battle between this and the high-riding Lambo.

Oh, and if the stunt we have here got you in the mood for... even more Urus hooning, you should know this is normal. So don't let anybody judge you while you check out this piece of footage, which shows the super-SUV going sideways on gravel.
