Quite like the yellow one. Some Lambo cues visible.

Sorry, there is no way it looks like, or could be any other SUV. What other car isn't a 'jelly mould' in your eyes?

And yes, they could have gone more outlandish, but it has to have a nod of practicality.

Both got four wheels/four doors?

And the picture is a misnomer. The Urus is a lot bigger, but lower.

As in jelly mould, take the lambo batch of and could be any new suv. Does it really look like a lambo, it just looks too safe, and not really exciting enough.

Lamborghini have doubled the size of the factory to built the Urus... they're expecting to sell 3000 per year. It's brief is daily driver, to compliment the wilder stuff driven at the weekends. So of course it's safe, it's still needs to site 4/5 in relative comfort. Make it more Lambo and it's only going to appeal to a narrower field of customers and that is not the objective.

And really! The Urus looks the same as the X6? Seriously... do you really believe that, honestly?

i was talking about a jelly mould not exactly the same that would be stupid. someone could silhouette them, then you would see how they look very similar.

That's the point, that is fine for everyday cars, but this is a supercar manufacturer, and that is the best they can do. Yes the fanboys will love it because it is expensive and the youtube stars will be fawning over it, but Lambo just sold a bit of there soul away.

Anyway it is clear they could have stuck a badge on any old st and it would have been lauded.

Fine for every day cars? It's the same for any class. Put a silhouette of a Lambo Huracan and it'll look similar to another mid-engined car. It's just general car shapes are general car shapes!!

But hey, we don't live in a world of silouettes....we can actually see, so your point doesn't really matter, because, in actual light, they look completely different and would only be mistaken as the same car as someone who's an idiot

So what could they have done differently than follow the basic silhouette of an SUV?

They could have made it look like an estate or something. Oh, wait, it'd look like an estate and be an estate.

Looking at you’re car history, why do you even care... it does look like it’s the market you shop in... and don’t take the wrong way, barring a lottery win I’m not likely to trouble by a Urus money sized what do I buy decision
