‘Flying Dutchman’ Mathieu van der Poel praises his Lamborghini: “The best car for me now”

Mathieu van der Poel has been a Lamborghini ambassador for some time. At the end of April, the Italian car maker gave him a Lamborghini Urus S, and the car. MVDP very satisfied. He says this in a new promotional video.

The Urus S is one of the fastest SUVs in the world and reaches a maximum speed of 305 km/h. “The Urus might be the best car for me right now,” says Van der Poel, who is billed as the ‘Flying Dutchman’ in the video. “I also need space in the trunk for my bike. It’s a great car for everyday use. You have the performance, but also the comfort of an SUV. That’s a great combination for me.”

Anyone who has seen Van der Poel on a bike knows that he likes some speed. “That’s because of the adrenaline. Of course we don’t reach the speeds that you normally reach when you’re in a car, but you feel different when you’re riding a bike. When you’re going downhill or running, you also go a lot faster. Adrenaline also helps me perform better, I think.”

Van der Poel describes Lamborghini in one word as ‘passion’. “It’s definitely Italian, and they do everything with great passion. You can see that in their cars and their motorcycles. They always do special things, and I like that.”
