Lamborghini Urus SE: The World’s First Plug-in Hybrid Super SUV debuts in Malaysia


Lamborghini Kuala Lumpur launched the Lamborghini Urus SE in Malaysia yesterday and I was one of the guys lucky enough to view it at its debut here at the Sentul Depot, in Kuala Lumpur. The Urus SE is the first hybrid plug-in version of what is the Lamborghini Super SUV and it is a historic milestone for Automobili Lamborghini. The hyper hybrid SUV has a new design with even more optimised aerodynamics, more on-board technology and an 800 CV or 789hp hybrid powertrain. It basically builds on the Urus S in terms of comfort, performance, efficiency, emissions and driving pleasure but adds that hybrid powertrain for some cleaner performance - an electric motor joins the 4.0liter V8 twin turbocharged engine. So this Urus can save some whales while still killing it in terms of looks, sound and performance.

2024 PROTON X50 launched today - More refinement, better inforainment performance and more for the same price

The newly upgraded Proton X50 has been launched but if you look at the photos here, you'd not notice it. This isn't a facelift folks, but more of a real upgrade underneath. It has more sound proofing, so better NVH (less noise, vibration and harshness), the larger infotainment screen is shared on all models, a more powerful CPU and more RAM for the infotainment system, better response on the dual clutch transmission and the two top models get the auto tailgate (previously only the highest Flagship variant). So while nothing has changed in terms of looks, and pricing as it actually comes in like previously, you get a better can and with the current early bird promotions, a lot of your money's worth for what is PROTON's best selling B segment SUV.
