Video: This Lamborghini Urus Got Its Wheel Curbed
Lamborghini is in the midst of a global tour with the Urus, but even the best of the best can experience a bad day, or in this case, a curbed wheel.
The recent launch of the Urus in London turned into a cringe-worthy sight when the driver of the SUV poorly executed a parking maneuver. The driver, who was responsible for handling the loading and unloading operations of the vehicle, had one of the wheels kiss the British street curb.
Youtuber Munch997 captured the whole thing on camera and posted it with a pretty self-explanatory description. He writes, “After the London launch / preview of the New Lamborghini Urus 4×4 I watched the cars come out of the exhibition hall where, unfortunately, the man loading one of the cars crunched the wheel on the curb! Ouch!”
Although it may just buff right out, the sound emitted from the wheel making contact with the curb is what really churns a car enthusiasts’s stomach. We definitely are not waiting on the edges of our seats for the release of the first Urus crash – which may certainly happen and be posted, as with many vehicles.

As Auto Evolution put it:
"“Here’s to hoping Urus drivers won’t overestimate their potential when dipping into the 650 ponies of the world’s most dynamic SUV – perhaps the first crash of the thing will be a minor one.After all, while no media representative has had the opportunity of spending some proper time with the Urus, we’re expecting this to be the kind that can easily trick a driver into believing he or she can defy the laws of physics.”"
Customer deliveries of the Urus are yet to begin, but despite that, some aftermarket companies are already thinking about a twin-turbo Lamborghini. At this point, all that has surfaced are some renderings and sorts, like the one by Topcar. This Russian tuner has teased us with a sneak peak of a widebody bodykit for the Lamborghini SUV that takes it to a whole other level.

We dare you to watch the video without cringing. Good luck! Fast forward to 1:37/1:38 to see and hear the exact moment it gets curbed.
Were you able to hear that curbing without cringing? I sure wasn’t. That sound alone is enough to make any car enthusiast nauseous. If you have any other cringe-worthy car videos you would like to share, post them in the comment section below.
