Lamborghini is poised to enter the SUV segment with a striking, angular concept at the Beijing motor show.

Pictures of the vehicle, called the Urus, leaked onto the Internet on Friday.

The concept has sharp lines and creases, four doors and a dramatically raked roofline. It rides on blinged-out wheels and likely employs extensive carbon fiber, in line with Lamborghini's recent development techniques. There are quad exhausts, extensive aero treatments and squinting headlights.

Other than the photos, details are scarce. The SUV will be all-wheel drive and probably will use one of Lamborghini's existing engines, meaning a V10 or a V12. Pricing no doubt will top six figures.
