Some cars scream for attention. Others simply exist in a shade so striking that conversation stops the moment they roll by. This Lamborghini Urus S, finished in the rare Blu Glauco, sits somewhere in between—quietly outrageous, if that’s even possible.
At first glance, the Urus S often lives in the shadow of its louder siblings. The hardcore Urus Performante grabs headlines for its track-focused attitude, while the electrified Urus SE pushes the brand into the hybrid era. Yet dismissing the S as the “middle child” would be a mistake. Underneath its sculpted bodywork sits the same 4.0‑liter twin‑turbocharged V8 that powers the Performante.
The numbers still hit hard. Output stands at 657 horsepower and 627 lb‑ft of torque, enough to shove this luxury SUV to 62 mph (100 km/h) in just 3.5 seconds. That figure isn’t merely quick for a five‑seat crossover—it’s quicker than some legendary supercars from not so long ago, including the Ferrari Enzo.
Only two Urus models edge it out. The Performante trims the sprint to 3.3 seconds despite identical power, thanks largely to weight savings and chassis tweaks. Then there’s the Urus SE, Lamborghini’s new plug‑in hybrid flagship, producing a combined 789 horsepower and 701 lb‑ft of torque. That electrified brute cuts the run to 3.4 seconds.
And soon, the SE may stand alone. Lamborghini has already signaled that the traditional V8 versions—the S and Performante—won’t remain in the lineup forever as the brand accelerates toward electrification.
A splash of $18,000 blue
The particular Urus S making the rounds online doesn’t rely on extra horsepower to stand out. Instead, it leans heavily into presentation.
According to Road Show International, the SUV wears Blu Glauco paint, an optional finish reportedly costing around $18,000. That’s the price of a decent used car in many parts of the United States, yet here it’s simply the color.
The theme continues with matching brake calipers painted in the same vivid shade. The front fascia has been protected with paint‑protection film, while the body benefits from ceramic coating to preserve that deep metallic glow.
There are a few additional touches bundled under what the seller calls “RS Edition” extras: nano‑ceramic window tint—including the windshield—and a two‑tone gloss tag frame. They’re subtle details, but they elevate the SUV’s already dramatic presence.
One claim attached to the listing raises eyebrows, though. Road Show International suggests this Urus S can reach 62 mph in 3.1 seconds. That would place it squarely in Performante territory—or beyond—but without any mechanical upgrades, such a figure should probably be taken with a grain of salt.
Because mechanically, this example remains stock. No extra boost, no revised engine mapping, no hidden performance trickery. Just Lamborghini’s factory‑spec twin‑turbo V8 doing what it does best.
Which, frankly, is more than enough.
The SUV is currently being offered for sale in the United States, though the asking price hasn’t been publicly disclosed. Considering the color, the extras, and the Lamborghini badge on the hood, nobody expects it to be a bargain.
Still, for the right buyer, that Blu Glauco glow might be impossible to resist.

Is the 3.1s time legit or dealer hype? Same V8 as Performante so without mods seems unlikely. Pretty color tho, i'd want dyno numbers first

That Blu Glauco hits different! Quietly outrageous indeed. 657hp is insane, but $18k for paint? wow. If that 3.1s claim is true then... no way, feels like listing flex
