The Lamborghini Urus shares the same VW group platform as the Audi Q8 and the Bentley Bentayga. [1] [2]

- kenhwang 8y agoThe Q8 is just a rounder body on the Q7/Touareg platform with the Audi engine with the Porsche turbo from the Cayenne instead of an Audi supercharger. The Bentayga is also a Touareg derivative but with a Bentley W12 or Cayenne Turbo V8TT. Bugatti is also working on their Touareg clone presumably with a Bugatti W16 engine. They're all the same car with different packaging. The biggest giveaway is all of the clones use Audi's pretty distinctive rear air suspension system, the odd for Audi/VW rear wheel steering, and the uncharacteristic for Porsche/Lamborghini ZF-8HP automatic transmission.
