All Aboard the Spaceship

While the changes to the 2025 Lamborghini Urus SE haven’t been as pronounced from a sheet-metal and interior perspective, Lamborghini design director Mika Borkert and his styling squad did a fair bit of work to make the new 2025 model fresh and improve its aerodynamic profile. Borkert outlined the “spaceship” foundation (drawing from the legendary Countach) he’s been working to infuse into the latest Lambos—all while sprinkling in other cues cribbed from the automaker’s historic bull pen.

For the Urus SE, that translates into new front light banks with daytime running lamps styled to be reminiscent of the Lambo bull logo’s tail, and a restyled rear hatch featuring mesh and Y-style lighting elements inspired by the Gallardo. From a practical standpoint, the reworked front end was enlarged to aid cooling, as were ducts and underbody elements for the brakes. Out back, the updated rear spoiler and diffuser conspire to reduce lift by 35 percent over the outgoing Urus S. Wheel sizes vary from 21 to 23 inches with multiple rim choices, and there’s a separate, 22-inch Pirelli Sottozero winter tire option as well. You want colors? There are more than 150 to choose from and counting, and dozens of interior combinations as well.

As for the cabin appointments, the new Urus SE’s are befitting an SUV with a price tag exceeding a quarter million to start, with Lambo’s signature quilted leather seating, aluminum trim, and the aircraft-inspired switchgear (we’ll argue it’s becoming maybe a bit too much like an aircraft’s dizzying button array as its rotary options increase). Borkert also highlighted other Y-shape and hexagonal (another of his Lamborghini legacy touchstones) elements.

Hex patterns have been integrated into the digital screen setup that we found to be duly responsive, with a refreshing ease of use for the most part. There are three separate digital screens, with the 12.3-inch instrument and fellow 12.3-infotainment being the most prominent, along with added tactile buttons that dial up other settings. Storage isn’t great up front, but you can fit four passengers in comfort (five in a pinch), and there’s more than a fair bit of capacity in the cargo area. So, yes, it will do SUV things.

Taken as a whole, the 2025 Lamborghini Urus SE’s breadth of capabilities makes it arguably the most diverse and daily drivable super SUV on the market today. It’s a vehicle that, as Mohr said, will give you “a supernatural feeling” when you’re in the right mode and it’s doing things you never expected it, or you, to be able to do.
