Lamborghini Urus Super SUV has become ground support vehicle for the Italian two-time world paragliding champion Aaron Durogati for his sporting endeavor at the RedBull X-Alps 2021 race that started on June 20. The Urus SUV will transport the athlete and his support team through the mountainous terrains over 12 days of the race.

Urus is touted for having high load capacity and ability to travel over a wide range of terrains at any pace. While Durogati paraglides across the region, Urus will carry his support team to follow him throughout the race. The SUV has also supported the paragliding champion during his preparations for the race. The vehicle's sportiness, reliability and off-road capabilities were the reasons that it was chosen as Durogati's support vehicle.
