There are quite a few repeated falsehoods about the LM002 (even Jay Leno repeated them in his awesome video of an LM002). First off it was never designed to be a military vehicle, the Cheetah was. The Cheetah had the engine in the back and was designed in conjunction with Mobility Technology International which eventually was instrumental in the Hummer being built. Even though the LM002 looked vaguely similar, the LM002 was targeted for rich Saudi oil barons and Texan oil barons to check on their oil rigs out in the fields, often far from civilization (which is why the windshield is flat so that any glassmaker could make a replacement).
Also, LM did not stand for Lamborghini Militara, it stood for Lamborghini Mimran. Lamborghini was owned by Patrick Mimran from 1984-1987 and the LM002 was the last Lamborghini to be cleared for production by him before Chrysler bought Lamborghini later in 1987. As a side note, Parick Mimran and his brother also built a Lamborghini motorcycle through a company named Boxer Bikes, which Patrick and his brother owned.
Also, even though the Lamborghini marine engine was offered as an option there is not a single known production LM002 with one, only one prototype that was made by the Lamborghini factory.
This comment is actually so informative. Thanks :)
Thank you very much for this!
@@DidierPeroni You're welcome. I was a teenager in the 80's and absolutely loved the LM. Still do. :-)
Yes, thank you !!
I never understand why these so-called „professional“ journalists not do their homework correctly. So much falls and misleading information. Guess it counts more to get 5 minutes of fame but hope I it backfires on a lot off them.
I love the LM002 much more than the URUS.
Same.
Definitely has 10x the character.
Lamborghini Anus
Ursus is just anoter version of WV Tuareg LM 002 on the other hand is a pure Lamborghini
Thats obviously biased opinions, I have noticed that whenever things get historic, people start liking them and give more praise just because its original. Even though it may not be good or acclaimed with good ratings on its released years
And yet, i would choose it over the Urus everyday of the week.
unless u commuted to work in heavy traffic every day
@@papa_pt Well, in that case, i would save money from not needing to go to the gym.... and use it for petrol in this. :D
Oh please. Maybe as a fourth car.
@@willywillywillywillywilly I meant between the two, sorry if it wasn't clear.
So would I.
I’ll never forget the black LM002 I saw as a kid walking with my parents in Sausalito, CA. It had a weird nonexistent presence on the street (if you don’t know what it is, it just looks like a hummer) and the guy hopped in and turned the key and everyone went really quiet and turned their heads to look at what it was. Pure Lamborghini sound coming from the most unsuspecting vehicle in sight.
I think that was probably the moment where I started loving cars. Never owned a LM002 and probably never will, but the LM002 still costed me a lot of money over the years!
I would take the lm002 over the urus whithout even blinking. In my opinion this is the coolest SUV ever
Still looks better than many of today's cars...
I did the maths ... 360$ to fill up in Europe
if you can buy this car i don't think you have the problem to fill it up this beast
Just wait 'til you try replacing the tires.
45 gallons to 204 liters of fuel, with which the average in the UK is £1.20 currently per liter which means its £244 to fully fuel roughly
@@MetalThrashingMad92 depens on where in europe you fill it up.
Urus is just a cayenne/Touareg/Audi something or other
I've just realised where the Humvee got it's looks from!
Carfection - the best automotive channel on the internet.
in a proper off road situation will piss over 80% of the current SUV's in the market and that includes the URUS.
I really enjoyed Tim's presentation of a very unique car! I'd like to see more of him on this channel, he seems to fit in the carfection family very well
"Sacrificial Back Lamb.. Chop wasn't a Baphamet" ©
this is how Urus should look like..not like KIA on steroids
This an old design would look stupid in a new suv
it could get fresh design hahaa but not like KIA @@allensaunders449
When lambo said new SUV i thought it would be more in the terms of lm002 modernised and with features but they disappointed me.
Ended up as a Porsche Cayenne
"I won't have the chance to take it off-road but I have a feeling it's not good in that environment"
What kind of lazy review is this? If you can't go off-road and test it, you can't tell how good or bad it is... and if you could, then you have to explain how, why, based on what.
Next time you take the LM002 and the Urus off-road, to a rocky and muddy environment. I bet that Urus is going to fall into pieces within an hour.
Agreed, please don't guess stuff. Anybody can do that.
Well he said driving over sand dunes which I would agree with you somewhat. He should have expanded. I've got two big reasons why it would not be good at rocky or muddy scenarios you mentioned. It's got a long wheelbase and it's extremely heavy. Two traits that are detrimental to being a good offroader.
He is there for a simple goal to advertise a new version of VW Tuareg - Ursus !
This thing is absolutely ridiculous in nearly every way and I'd still kill to own one! Great film guys, liked it's laid back nature, thank you.
I cringed slightly at 4:57 when he said "could you imagine doing battlefield repairs on an Italian V12?" Lamborghinis engines are not that complicated or hard to work on. Their V12s have pretty much had the same layout since the 60's and have been proven to be very dependable. That's why they keep using them.
And LM DIDNT STAND UP LAMBORGHINI MILITARI IT STOOD GOT LAMBORGHINI MIRIAM OWNER OF LAMBORGHINI 1984-87 ALSO IT WAS FOR RICH SAUDIS AND OIL TYCOONS WOW HE GOT EDUCATED BY A "INNER CITY" BLACK MAN
@@letstalkabouttv1784 Lmao I can't tell if you're trolling but you are right
@@rj12427 nah it's true but I was joking about the inner city black man lol have a great day man
A timeless dream Mashine for me since the early 80s. A car with a heart and soul and something to be proud off and not faceless, mainstream and Japanese looking like the Urus but that is only my opinion.
I would 100% rather spend time (and be seen) in the LM002 over the Urea, even if it's objectively worse in every way.
Even the old Lambo SUV is better than a lot of SUVs of this day and age
(who's he?)
general general... I thought I stumbled on a Motortrend video for a second 🤔
@@Carfection Hi Tim! I just want to say thank you for everything you did at Engadget!
Sounds a lot like that chap that commentates on Blancpain GT World Challenge America
Me and one of my friends were talking about how 3D-printing could change replica cars forever. prewar cars, muscle cars, old exotics? All of it replicated completely new at 2 fifths to half the weight it would normally be at with AI-designed high-strength aluminum structures skinned in carbon fiber, while being stiffer, stronger, and better handling and capable of being designed to adhere to any of the owner's modifications in mind.
An LM002 built a literal ton lighter? almost possible today, and pair that with an Aventador's V12 with Underground Racing's turbocharging? With enough money, you can have the much-loved aesthetic of rare classics with the performance of modern vehicles.
Wish I could see next year in Livigno
Wow, if I learned about this after getting an Urus, I'd be mad. This is a real SUV.
The LM is just one among many other proofs that Italian really can make Cars LOVIN IT
I like this guy. He's good.
That is such a gorgeous gorgeous vehicle.
Look up coolness on the interweb: "Rambo Lambo"! This car is an icon, a statement. And one I would dearly have. A bit lazy review, not up to par. But a great car!
As far as I know there was also a version with a 290 liter fuel tank to increase the range. Sweet.
Good video, but it kills me how no journalist will just say the honest truth about the Urus: You could have a Cayenne Turbo for half the price, and it's basically the same car.
I don't mind the platform sharing so much, but it's the engine sharing that puts it over the top with the Urus/Cayenne. If the Urus had the Lambo V10, it would be distinctly its own machine, and it could justify a premium because it's ACTUALLY different. But as it is, it's overcharging posers $100k for a Cayenne, and it makes the Urus a complete joke.
Agree. Even the Cayenne is more practical and more capable on rough terrain
If modern warfare occurs,Urus will be Rambo again.
Basically a Hummer but it’s a Lamborghini
exept its older than hummer
Back in the early 90's I had a poster that had all the Lamborghini's on it, and the stats of each one. The stats said this could do 125mph. Remember Arnold Schwarzenager has one. Really you get one to tow your other Lamborghini, or Lamborghini powered boat. Thanks.
I wanted to ask you did the one you bought have the 5.2 v12. Are the bigger motor they said you had a choice of the small 5.2 v12 or bigger motor. I will have to look it up. It is a much bigger motor. Right now one the run an drives great will cost you between $300,000 to $400,000. Crazy. You get it put back together right it be wroth it.
It looks like the steering wheel is set up for the classic Italian driving position with the hands positioned at 6 o'clock on the steering wheel when cruising. That's why there's no room at the top of the wheel.
Motoring journalists like to joke about the Italian "short leg, long arm" driving style, but they don't account for the fact (or more likely, are ignorant of) the way that most Italians hold the wheel when driving on the autostrada. It's just an easy slam passed from the previous generation of the journalists to the current that helps bump the word count of a review or article.
When your presenter is wearing sunglasses because *F$@# EYE CONTACT*
What the LM has that the Urus does not, whether it good or bad, is presence.
That thing is so 80s pretty
SUV before its time.
The Lamborghini LM002 always looked huge like a Hummer until you get it side by side with something like the Urus which is a midsize SUV.
Where was this filmed, Lauterbrunnen CH?
LM002 has always been my dream "car" 4x4 whatever...Lambo should have been wise and brought it back in 2020 as a new SUV that actually seats 5 or 6 people, has a massive 700+ HP V12 and massive tires. LM002 is the design inspiration for the H1 Hummer/American General and I think will ALWAYS be an iconic vehicle.
I admired the boxy design of the LM002 back when I was a kid. Lamborghini could have done a better job at ergonomics though. Still, a beloved automotive icon.
Looks like u skipped more than a few leg days Rambo
visually is a really nice car
It may not be a very good car, but still the only offroader with a Lamborghini engine!
They need a version 2 or 3
Will a Viper v10 fit?
URAE? URUSES? UREE? URUES? URUES? So many questions, so few answers.
Might aswell make a Rambo Lambo 3 equivalent to a G wagon
“I’ll let you do the maths!” Please don’t, numbers, eurgh.
Tina turner had one....she swap the motor and tranny for a mercedes v8 diesel and a automatic......plus a father and son team got a hold of one from I believe a doctor and swap a cummins motor making 600 hp and a Alison transmission
Ultraman?
The way you say Urus 😂😂😂😂
I still want one though
Lambo Rambo 💪👍
I remember hearing about the special tires, made with Kevlar and are VERY expensive, like $20k, can someone correct me if I'm off🤔
I have 5 new ones for sale. They are yours for $20k. I am in Europe (Holland).
A few months ago I stopped by in a shop and they were restoring a LM. I spoke with one of the mechanics and he mentioned each of the tires were about 4k. If you need to replace the spare tire too, you are talking something in the 20k
Is that the How Its Made voice?
Where's Henry? He's the only decent presenter on here!
"It's SOOO 1980's!", yet it looks way more 1970's, if anything! And drives like it's from the '60s!!
Nah definitely looks like something from 80's action movie
Lamborghini Cheetah 1977 > LM001 1981 > LM002 1986
Whats urgonics and an uracan.
The LM002 is a "Lamborghini". The Urus is a "Volkswagen Group" made out to look like a Lamborghini. No doubt it's a WAY better car than the LM002, but so are lots of current cars.
Lambo Should Update the look with newer Engines but keep the Shape !!!!!!!!
It's ugly as sin, but it looks so fucking cool. Nobody is gonna say "WOW! It's so pretty!" But they are gonna want to know about it.
still would have the LMoo2
🐯👑
the last V12 SUV this ridiculous was the G65
wish they'd stick the Aventador engine in a production Estoque
What i will do is buy this. Then i will take out the engine (since it's old and most prob will give problems.) And i will replace it with a electrical engine, since this car is not ment to be heard but to be used for work.
A push button is not a toggle switch, just saying.
That's a Jay Leno SUV.
The 002 is still better than the Urine
Lm002 is way cooler than the Urus.
You literally only have just enough room between the dashboard and the steering wheel at the top. If someone has fat fingers they’ll probably hit the dashboard when turning.
Such a disappointing and not true doco. These cars were great in the day. This one they borrowed is clearly not in good order and the presenter obviously hasn’t driven many big rig off roaders. The lm002 will piss over a urus in a proper off road situation. Rant over haha
Sam Harrison the one they were driving is from Lamborghini itself so probably very well maintained. However, I agree with you that it’s probably a far more capable off-roader than the Urus or most RR’s
Not sure if we can like it, or hes saying that he does like it
Rambo Lambo?
El peor nombre que pudieron ponerle.
Yo lo llamaría: Ramborghini. 🐂
Why do you hate M3 videos so much
I thought Carfection was hosted by UK presenters. I'm officially disappointed.
Aww, no love for the token Yank?
Who’s the yank?
Ada penonton dari indonesia engga ? Ini satu lokasi pembuatan video nya sama om mobi 😂
This is one vehicle with alot of flaws that most commenters pretend are attributes
Q U I R K S
It doesn't scream like a supercar?! Well, you're right, it doesn't scream like A supercar. It screams like THE original supercar.
You may not have heard it that well because some idiot decided it had to meet some stupid regulations and bolted on a muffled exhaust. But take away that muffler and it will truly scream, just like the car that in the 70's quite literally set the modern definition of the word supercar: the Countach.
Who else thought that this was a Pubg video?
Cool fucking vehicle tho
Letting an American drive anything that isn't powered steering brakes etc is never going to work , it's an icon , not comparable with anything now or pretty much any thing in the 80s . Bring back the normal team .
Don’t be a fucking chav, there are good and bad people of every race and nationality. An American can drive and appreciate the exact same cars anyone else does. So get bent
I would have zero problems driving, enjoying and appreciating this icon of the 80's. Don't be so quick to judge, or lump us all into the same category.
The fuck are you on about
What is an Ooowruse? 😂
Too much maintenance for the field
Ramborghini
Thanks Tim but lets stick to Henry and Alex :)
Carfection takes the inevitable mistake of empæloying a Murican to seek the yanky dollar. The Urus, a reskinned Audi. Not even smart enpough to put in the Lambo V12.
Oh no!!! A US presenter. Bring back the uk please
Not a fan of the urus
I didn’t realise this was Motor Trend, unsubscribed.
Holy shit that thing's uglier than a freaking Hummer!
the LM002 is not an SUV!
