Lamborghini is planning an electric model of the Urus SUV concept car

-


Lamborghini has been planning the release of its Urus SUV for quite a few years now. First announced in 2012, the vehicle has gone through multiple iterations, each shown off at various auto shows since the initial announcement. Now, the Italian sports car manufacturer is looking to bring this concept into the future, and has revealed that it will be releasing an electric plug-in variant for the launch of the vehicle in 2018.



The company is breaking more than one barrier with the release of this vehicle. The car will not only be the first SUV to be offered by Lamborghini, but also its first electric vehicle. While the car isn’t 100% electric, it is a step in the right direction towards a more renewable world.


The company is also apparently working on a fully electric vehicle to be released sometime in the distant future. Lamborghini is owned by Volkswagen, who announced that they are planning to have 30 fully electric models on the market in the next nine years.



The most recent iteration of the Urus SUV was shown off just recently, and it actually looks quite good. The vehicle is clearly Lamborghini in design, with sharp edges and curves in all the right places to give it the aggressive look the company is so famous for.

Google is pushing out an updated version of its contacts management app, bringing some of the features available in the web version to the Android app. The v 1.5 update reorganizes the user interface of Google Contacts. Instead of the two tabs – all and favorites – the app now just displays your entire contact list, with a sidebar menu available via the hamburger button on the left. Opening that up reveals a new section for managing duplicate contacts. That’s a feature that was present on the web app of Contacts , but the process was more convoluted on the Android app. You can now also add labels to your contacts, making it easy to organize large contact lists based on groups, for things like family, work, or school. That’s another feature that was present on the web app and it’s now finally making the jump to the Android app, a place where it’s actually more likely to be used. Google Contacts 1.5 is currently rolling out to all users, so it should land on your ...

LG Display used CES 2018 in Las Vegas to officially unveil its new OLED displays - one of them being a 65-inch 4K flexible screen that can be rolled like a newspaper. The other is an 88” 8K OLED panel that we told you about last week. The flexibility of the 65” OLED display makes it easier to transport or store in the corner. Its small size allows for better space utilization, meaning you can take the TV anytime, anywhere and “enjoy bright, high-resolution content”. LG Display will also showcase its latest upgrades of the IPS technology. The panels now have IPS nano-color, “which expresses rich colors using nanoscale high-color reproduction particles, and IPS technology, which increases the transmittance and reduces the intensity of light reflected on the panel.”, said the company in a press release.

Nintendo has dropped a new handheld console, the 2DS XL. The 2DS XL is big step up from the toast-shaped 2DS and is essentially the 3DS XL but without the 3D display. That's really all there is to be said about this. The 2DS XL includes the faster processor, C-stick and NFC reader for Amiibos from the 3DS XL but lacks the 3D display and has a more compact and lighter design. The 2DS XL will still be compatible with all the 3DS games, just that you can't play them in 3D.
