Why the Urus SE leads
The Urus SE’s 800 CV combined output gives it a 2 km/h edge over the Purosangue and DBX707. The top three are separated by only 2 km/h, so rounding and test conditions matter. Ferrari quotes its speed as a minimum of more than 310 km/h.
Limiters decide the middle of the table
Audi, BMW and Mercedes limit their SUVs electronically, and several higher speeds depend on optional packages. Treat those rows as the figure a buyer can reach with the stated equipment. For a wider performance comparison, see the fastest Audi models.
