Rent Lamborghini Urus 2022 in Dubai

Book a Lamborghini Urus 2022 in Dubai and you get the same five-seat supercar SUV formula as the newer cars in this fleet, for a lower daily rate. That is the argument for picking the earlier year over its 2024 sibling: the raging bull badge, the V8 noise, and room for four passengers with their bags, at a price gap that is easy to justify. We deliver it to your hotel, home or terminal, usually within one to two hours of booking. The real question here is not whether the Urus is fast. It is whether the small drop in outright power from the 2022 car costs you anything on a week of Dubai driving.

The V8, and what an earlier year gives you

Lamborghini sold the Urus in one form from 2018 through 2022, before a newer version took over from 2023 with a small power bump. This 2022 car runs the original 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, tuned to around 650 hp and 850 Nm of torque, sent through an eight-speed automatic to all four wheels with active torque vectoring on the rear axle. It hits 100 km/h in about 3.6 seconds and carries on to 305 km/h. The newer car in this fleet claims roughly 657 hp and shaves a tenth off that sprint time. On Sheikh Zayed Road, in real traffic, that gap disappears. Both cars overtake the moment you ask, and neither driver notices the difference.

What you do notice is how it hides its weight. Adaptive air suspension keeps a two-and-a-half-tonne body flat through a fast sweeper, and the steering carries real weight instead of the numb assistance most large SUVs use. Push it into a tight corner or brake late for a roundabout and the mass reminds you it is there, so treat it as a very quick SUV rather than a low sports car with extra seats.

Five real seats, and where the bags go

This is still the part that separates the Urus from anything else wearing an exotic badge. The rear bench seats three properly, not two with a token middle spot, so a family of five or a group of friends all get a real seat, and the 616-litre boot takes two or three large cases plus the soft bags without anyone folding a seat down. An airport run for four with real luggage just works, which is not something you can say about a two-seat supercar and its 100-litre nose compartment.

Ground clearance sits around 158 mm standard, enough for speed bumps and most mall ramps, and the air suspension lifts the car further for a steep driveway or a rough patch of road. This is still a rented supercar SUV rather than a desert vehicle, so keep the all-wheel drive for grip and stability on tarmac rather than treating it as an invitation onto the sand at Al Qudra. At just over two metres wide across the mirrors, a Marina tower ramp or a tight mall multi-storey wants folded mirrors and a slow approach, and the high seating position makes judging that width easier than the number suggests. This one arrives in black, a quieter way to pull up than the yellow you will see on the newer car in the fleet, if you would rather not be the loudest thing at the valet stand.

Heat, fuel and the deposit you should expect

A cabin this size takes longer to cool from a parked 48-degree afternoon than a small hatchback does, simply because there is more air inside it to shift. Once the system catches up it pulls the temperature down fast and evenly, with proper vents in the back so rear passengers are not waiting on air drifting off the dash. Expect the first minute after a long lunch in the sun to feel warm, then it settles.

Running one costs what you would expect from a car like this. The 85-litre tank wants premium fuel, and the official combined figure sits around 14.1 litres per 100 km, though a week of Dubai traffic with the AC working hard all day pushes that into the high teens. Salik tolls and any RTA fines during the rental pass to you, seat belts are mandatory for everyone on board, and a proper child seat is required for anyone under four. The daily allowance is 250 km, then AED 0.5 for every kilometre over that. As a supercar SUV, this rents against a refundable deposit confirmed at booking, so there is no no-deposit option here, and you need to be at least 25 to take the keys, older than the age this fleet asks for on most non-exotic cars.

Who should rent it, and who should size to a newer year

Book the 2022 Urus if you want the full five-seat Lamborghini experience, the badge and the V8 noise, without paying for the last 7 hp and the tenth of a second that a newer year adds. In real Dubai traffic, at legal speeds, nobody in the car will ever feel that difference, and the 2022 car's rate reflects the fact that Lamborghini has since pushed the model further.

Step up to the newer car if you specifically want the current version, or if the extra output matters to you for its own sake rather than for anything you will use on the road. Everything that makes the Urus practical, the five real seats, the 616-litre boot and the running costs, carries across both years unchanged. The honest case for this one is simple. It is the same car doing the same job for less money, and the small gap in outright numbers is not something you will notice from behind the wheel.
