Rental Lamborghini Urus Sideswiped After Two Hours Costs ,000 To Fix

The Lamborghini Urus is a highly sought-after car, but its steep price tag makes it inaccessible for most people. Priced at over $200,000, this “Super SUV” is usually reserved for the wealthy elite. However, if you want to experience its 641 horsepower and take your friends for a spin, renting one is your only option.

Unfortunately, rental company Gotham Dream Cars had their Urus sidelined after just two hours of renting it out. The vehicle, which had only done 5,000 miles, was sideswiped while waiting at a red light. Now, it’s waiting for replacement parts to get back on the road. Despite being the most common Lamborghini car with 20,000 units produced by mid-2022, finding replacement parts for the Urus has proven to be a challenge.

The CEO of Gotham Dream Cars, Rob Ferretti, explained that finding replacement passenger-side doors and a side mirror has been difficult. The goal was to get the Urus back on the road within a week, but two weeks later, they are still waiting for the replacement panels to arrive.

The cost of the parts alone adds up to $36,292, with an additional $9,487 for body labor. On top of that, there is a paint labor cost of $6,987 and a paint cost of $4,192. Work done on the frame amounts to $1,050, and there’s an extra $128 for “body supplies.” Interestingly, the repair bill includes a miscellaneous charge of $35.

When you add up all these costs, it comes to a total of $58,173 to fix the Urus. With sales tax included, the grand total reaches $62,027. This is a significant amount of money, especially considering that it’s enough to buy a 2024 BMW M2, which is a completely different car. It’s worth noting that the Urus shares its mechanical underpinnings with the more affordable Audi RS Q8.

Although the rental company offered the driver a replacement vehicle, he has chosen to wait until the Urus is repaired since the accident was not his fault, and he is paying for the entire month.
