A best seller, even in Brazil, the Lamborghini Urus was the car that broke the resistance of super sports brands in relation to SUVs. And, of course, it soon became a fetish.
For those who cannot afford the millions of dollars requested for the super sports utility vehicle (in Brazil, it is R $ 2.4 million, to be more precise), a strange alternative is to transform an ordinary car into something that looks like a Urus.
It is in this market that the preparer Albermo bets, based in the Japanese city of Yamaguchi.
It recently launched the XR51 kit on the Japanese market, making a modest Toyota RAV4 become a replica of the illustrious Lamborghini.
For 240,000 yen (the equivalent of R $ 12,500), the RAV4 gets a new set of grille and front bumper, a black ruler that connects the taillights, side skirts and rear wing, all inspired by the Italian super SUV.
If you want to increase the service with sports wheels, as in the yellow unit that illustrates one of the images in this article, you will have to open your wallet and pay separately.
Ah! In preparation, Albermo even inserts his own logo on the front bumper, which looks a lot like, but isn’t, Lamborghini’s.
By coincidence or not (we know not), the signature with the preparer’s name in the rule that connects the rear lights also follows a pattern of origin almost identical to that of the Italian brand.
There’s nothing like copying a fetish object without damaging industrial property rights, right?
Do you want to spend even less? For 138,000 yen (R $ 7,200), it is possible to modify just the front of your RAV4, spending a little less.
It is clear that the performance of the hybrid SUV will continue to 222 hp and will go far from the 650 hp of the Urus. But hey … At least you will have spent only a few thousand dollars, not a few million.
In Japan, a RAV4 starts with the equivalent of R $ 140,000. Here, after the last readjustment practiced by Toyota, its starting price is R $ 217,990.
