Love that random rear shot of a red Ford Taurus in the pics.

Awesome. I'm hoping the production version is close to the concept. Lamborghini has this bad habit of teasing amazing concept cars that never see production though, despite looking like very viable products.

While I don't care for the filthy rich car segment, I feel this Lambo SUV is underdesigned, or a little bland in other words. It does not share any design elements or style Lambos are known for. They should have done what Paulie from American Chopper would do with a bike when asked to make it look like a fighter jet.

They've built an SUV before - and it was badass.  The LM002 is a really, really, old design and to me, looks 1000x better than this ugly thing.  The LM002 is beefy and purposeful and looks ready to roll over anything while chasing down terrorists.

"....the Italian marque, Lamborghini have just officially given the production green light for the Urus SUV." What you really mean is the parent company Audi AG a.k.a. VW Group gave the go ahead.

This was originally intended as a light military vehicle. I agree LM002 is a better looking vehicle by far.

Well, it's an abomination, but it'll definitely sell.  *sigh*

I think the same adjectives work for the new one though I get that not everyone will like the styling.
