According to Akpovire Okugbere, better known as Car Continent, the 2019 Lamborghini Urus is more than just an SUV—it’s a performance machine wrapped in luxury. As a respected celebrity car dealer in Nigeria, Akpovire has driven and sold some of the most sought-after cars, but the Urus left a different impression on him entirely.
The Driving Experience That Changes the Game
In his words, the 2019 Urus is so engaging to drive that most owners prefer to be behind the wheel themselves. Unlike typical luxury vehicles that are usually chauffeur-driven, this one is built for the person in the driver’s seat. The reason? Pure performance.
Engineered Like a Supercar, Built Like an SUV
The Urus features a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 engine that delivers a massive 641 horsepower. It’s the type of power you feel instantly, whether you’re on Lekki-Epe Expressway or coasting through the streets of Maitama. Akpovire noted that the acceleration, control, and handling rival that of many two-door sports cars.
Inside the Urus: Sophistication on Another Level
Luxury doesn’t take a backseat either. The cabin of the 2019 Urus is fitted with refined carbon fiber accents, premium finishes, and a Bang & Olufsen sound system that delivers crystal-clear audio. The exhaust note adds to the experience, giving off a powerful yet elegant growl that’s instantly recognisable.
Market Value in Nigeria
Akpovire disclosed that the 2019 Lamborghini Urus typically goes for about ₦450 million in the Nigerian market. Price may vary based on condition, mileage, and whether duties have been fully paid, but this figure places it squarely in the high-luxury bracket.
Final Thoughts from Car Continent
For anyone considering a blend of Italian engineering, unmatched performance, and executive-class luxury, the 2019 Urus checks all the boxes. It’s a bold statement on wheels, and as Car Continent puts it, “It’s a road jet that commands both speed and style.”
