Compare the2025 Lamborghini UrusVS 2024 Rolls-Royce Cullinan

For enhanced safety, the front seat shoulder belts of the Lamborghini Urus are height-adjustable to accommodate a wide variety of driver and passenger heights. A better fit can prevent injuries and the increased comfort also encourages passengers to buckle up. The Rolls-Royce Cullinan doesn’t offer height-adjustable seat belts.

Both the Urus and Cullinan have rear cross-traffic warning, but the Urus has Automatic Brake Activation (automatically applies the brakes) to better prevent a collision when backing near traffic. The Cullinan’s Cross Traffic Warning doesn’t automatically brake.

Both the Urus and the Cullinan have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, side-impact head airbags, front seatbelt pretensioners, four-wheel antilock brakes, all wheel drive, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, crash mitigating brakes, daytime running lights, lane departure warning systems, blind spot warning systems, rearview cameras, rear cross-path warning, driver alert monitors, available night vision systems and around view monitors.

The Urus’ corrosion warranty is 8 years longer than the Cullinan’s (12 vs. 4 years).

Lamborghini pays for scheduled maintenance (up to 5 visits) on the Urus for 1 year longer than Rolls-Royce pays for maintenance for the Cullinan (5 years vs. 4 years).

The Urus’ standard 4.0 turbo V8 produces 94 more horsepower (657 vs. 563) than the Cullinan’s standard 6.8 turbo V12. The Urus’ 4.0 turbo V8 produces 65 more horsepower (657 vs. 592) than the Cullinan Black Badge’s standard 6.8 turbo V12. The Urus SE’s standard 4.0 turbo V8 hybrid produces 197 more horsepower (789 vs. 592) than the Cullinan Black Badge’s standard 6.8 turbo V12.

On the EPA test cycle the Urus running its gasoline engine gets better mileage than the Cullinan:

The Urus SE can travel with zero emissions for 37 miles. The Cullinan can’t move without running its internal combustion engine.

Regenerative brakes improve the Urus SE’s fuel efficiency by converting inertia back into energy instead of wasting it. The Cullinan doesn’t offer a regenerative braking system.

In heavy traffic or at stoplights the Urus’ engine automatically turns off when the vehicle is stopped, saving fuel and reducing pollution. The engine is automatically restarted when the driver gets ready to move again. If the conditions warrant or the driver wishes, the system can be manually disabled at any time for the duration of a trip. The Cullinan doesn’t offer an automatic engine start/stop system.

For more complete vehicle control the Urus has Tiptronic, with the available convenience of an automatic transmission and the complete gear control of a manual transmission without the inconvenience of a clutch. Tiptronic allows the driver to eliminate unwanted shifts and maximize engine braking by down shifting while cornering. The Cullinan doesn’t offer a transmission that allows complete gear control.

For better stopping power the Urus’ front brake rotors are larger than those on the Cullinan:

The Urus has standard heat-treated ceramic brake rotors, which last ten to twenty times as long as conventional cast iron rotors, don’t rust, don’t fade during repeated high speed braking, and their lighter weight contribute to better braking, handling and acceleration. The Cullinan doesn’t offer ceramic brake rotors.

For better traction, the Urus has larger standard tires than the Cullinan (F:285/45R21 & R:315/40R21 vs. 255/50R21). The Urus’ optional tires are larger than the largest tires available on the Cullinan (F:285/35R23 & R:325/30R23 vs. 255/50R21).

The Urus’ standard 285/45R21 front and 315/40R21 rear tires provide better handling because they have a lower 45 series front and 40 series rear profile (height to width ratio) that provides a stiffer sidewall than the Cullinan’s standard 50 series tires. The Urus’ optional 285/35R23 front and 325/30R23 rear tires have a lower 35 series front and 30 series rear profile than the Cullinan’s optional 45 series tires.

For better ride, handling and brake cooling the Urus offers optional 23-inch wheels. The Cullinan’s largest wheels are only 22-inches.

The Urus offers an optional space-saver spare tire so you can replace a flat tire and drive to have the flat repaired or replaced. A spare tire isn’t available on the Cullinan; it requires you to depend on its run-flat tires, which limits mileage and speed before they are repaired. If a run-flat is damaged beyond repair by a road hazard your vehicle will have to be towed.

For better maneuverability, the Urus’ turning circle is 4.6 feet tighter than the Cullinan’s (38.7 feet vs. 43.3 feet).

The Lamborghini Urus may be more efficient, handle and accelerate better because it weighs about 800 to 1550 pounds less than the Rolls-Royce Cullinan.

The Urus S is 9.6 inches shorter than the Cullinan, making the Urus easier to handle, maneuver and park in tight spaces.

The Urus is 8.5 inches shorter in height than the Cullinan, making the Urus much easier to wash and garage and drive (lower center of gravity).

For excellent aerodynamics, the Urus has standard flush composite headlights. The Cullinan has recessed headlights that spoil its aerodynamic shape and create extra drag.

The Urus has a much larger cargo volume than the Cullinan with its rear seat up (21.8 vs. 19.8 cubic feet).

The Urus’ standard rear seats fold to accommodate long and bulky cargo. The Cullinan w/Executive Rear Seats doesn’t offer folding rear seats, only a ski pass-through.

The Urus’ liftgate lifts up in one piece, completely out of the way of loading and unloading, while sheltering the cargo loading area. The Cullinan’s tailgate’s top part raises up, but the bottom part lowers, getting in the way of loading and making an uneven surface for sliding cargo.

To make loading groceries and cargo easier when your hands are full, the Urus’ available liftgate can be opened just by kicking your foot under the back bumper, leaving your hands completely free. The Cullinan doesn’t offer a hands-free gesture to open its tailgate, forcing you to put cargo down if your hands are full.

Standard on the Urus uses the Electronic Stability Program sensors to detect trailer sway, then uses individual brakes to counteract any swaying and help keep the tow vehicle and trailer steady. The Cullinan doesn’t offer electronic trailer sway control.

The Urus’ instruments include an oil pressure gauge and a temperature gauge - which could save your engine! Often ‘idiot lights’ don’t warn you until damage has been done. The Cullinan does not have an oil pressure gauge.

The Urus’ front and rear power windows all open or close with one touch of the switches, making it more convenient at drive-up windows and toll booths, or when talking with someone outside of the car. The Cullinan’s rear power window switches have to be held the entire time to close them fully.

In poor weather, headlights can lose their effectiveness as grime builds up on their lenses. This can reduce visibility without the driver realizing. The Urus offers available headlight washers to keep headlight output high. The Cullinan doesn’t offer headlight washers.

The Urus’ optional Park Assist can parallel park or back into a parking spot by itself, starting, stopping and changing direction automatically. Remote Park Assist will park and retrieve your car remotely: press a button and watch it park itself. This is ideal for tight locations. The Cullinan’s automatic parking system does not offer parking by remote control.

The Lamborghini Urus outsold the Rolls-Royce Cullinan by 61% during 2023.
