Lamborghini Urus-wannabe Toyota Fortuner SUV Spotted On The Nigerian Road
Odd-looking Lamborghini Urus-wannabe sports utility vehicle (SUV) spotted on the Nigerian road.
A closer look shows that the SUV is actually a Hilux-based Toyota Fortuner with a custom Urus front fascia.
Fortuner uses a 201-hp 2.8L Diesel Turbo 4 engine, allowing a 0-60 mph in 10 secs and a top speed of 190 mph.
In comparison, Urus uses 4.0-L twin-turbo V8, which allows a 0-60 mph in 3.1 secs and a top speed of 190 mph.
An odd-looking Lamborghini Urus-wannabe SUV was recently spotted cruising on the Nigerian road with the Italian brand’s diamond-encrusted badge? sitting confidently on the bonnet.
While the Urus remains Lamborghini’s only SUV and best-selling model in the market today, the motorist who captured and shared the footage was forced to ask what ‘Lamborghini’ the obviously ‘modified SUV’ really was.
On a closer look, the odd-looking SUV is actually a Hilux-based Toyota Fortuner sold in markets like Nigeria and India, but with a poorly made Urus front fascia and a Lamborghini hood emblem, which sells from $15.00 up to $350.00 on eBay.
Autojosh guess that the Toyota Fortuner only received modifications to the front part, so it likely uses a 201-horsepower 2.8L Diesel Turbo 4 engine, allowing a 0-60 mph in around 10 seconds and a top speed of 190 mph.
In comparison, the Urus the modified Fortuner claimed to be uses a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, which allows the 650-horsepower Lamborghini SUV to reach 60 mph in 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 190 mph.
