Rezvani Knight Turns a Lamborghini Urus Into a Street-Legal Tank With Thermal Cameras and an EMP

Nobody asked for an armored Lamborghini Urus. Then again, nobody asked for a tactical fanny pack either, but here we are. Rezvani – the Californian outfit best known for giving civilian vehicles the paranoia of a Cold War bunker – looked at the Urus and said: needs more trauma. The result is the Knight, a street-legal military SUV with the fashion sense of a Bond villain and the restraint of a Michael Bay explosion reel.

The original Urus is already borderline excessive. Twin-turbo V8, 657 horsepower, and a design that looks like it was sketched during a Red Bull binge. It oozes aggression in that expensive European way, like a luxury watch that could punch you. But Rezvani doesn’t do theatrical threat. It does real-world menace. So they gutted the Urus’s sleek confidence and wrapped it in a jagged, carbon-fiber skin that radiates bad intentions. You don’t just drive the Knight. You deploy it.

Designer: Rezvani

The body is an origami of malice. Sharp lines, sci-fi taillights, a front fascia that looks like it’s been squinting into a war zone for too long. It trades Lamborghini’s sculpted excess for something closer to dystopian utilitarianism. And the kicker? That armor isn’t just for show. We’re talking bulletproof panels, ballistic glass, steel bumpers, and optional underbody explosive protection. Which begs the question: where exactly are you going?

That’s only the beginning. There’s a thermal camera. An EMP shield. Sirens, strobe lights, gas masks, magnetic deadbolts, and because Rezvani leans into the absurd, electrified door handles. Touch them uninvited and you’ll get a shock strong enough to make a Tesla cry. All for extra charge, obviously. And probably the cost of having the authorities do a thorough background check.

Power hasn’t been neglected either. Rezvani bumps the Urus’s output to 789 horsepower, because hauling all that angst requires serious muscle. And if you opt for the valved exhaust, it’ll scream with the kind of rage usually reserved for exorcisms or failed Wi-Fi connections. The drivetrain remains intact – permanent AWD, brutal acceleration – but wrapped in something that feels part Mad Max, part DARPA prototype.

And yet, in all its lunacy, there’s an odd design integrity here. The 22-inch wheels wrapped in 33-inch off-road tires feel deliberate. So do the flat body planes, not just for armor compatibility, but because they visually ground the Knight in a way no Urus ever could. It’s imposing, yes, but also deeply coherent in its purpose: don’t approach. Don’t follow. And definitely don’t assume it’s friendly.

Rezvani asks for $149,000 to turn your Urus into this street-legal siege weapon. That doesn’t include the Urus itself. Nor does it cover the Dark Knight Package, which adds enough military tech to raise flags at customs. But this isn’t a vehicle you spec with logic. After all, Bruce Wayne didn’t design his Batmobile logically either. The package features run-flat military tires, a smoke screen system, thermal imaging, EMP shielding, magnetic deadbolts, and even a pepper spray dispenser – because what’s a luxury SUV without chemical warfare? The result is less car, more mobile fortress. If Skynet built a family vehicle, this would be it.

The Knight is absurd. But it’s a very intentional kind of absurd. Sure, it’s impractical. Yes, it’s over-the-top. But it’s also one of the few vehicles in recent memory that commits, unapologetically, to being exactly what it is: a rolling fortress with a Lamborghini soul and a bunker’s worth of attitude.
