- Rezvani has announced plans for an all-new model called the Knight.
- It will debut shortly and appears to be based on the Lamborghini Urus.
- The crossover will have a twin-turbo V8 engine producing over 750 hp.
Rezvani Motors has released the first teaser images of their upcoming Knight, which promises to be the “most high performance hyper SUV” they’ve ever made. It will be unveiled in the coming weeks and combine “brutal beauty with supercar levels of power.”
That’s a lot of marketing hyperbole, but the Knight will have a bulging hood and a roof-mounted light bar. They’ll be joined by four horizontal daytime running lights.

The rear teaser is more revealing as it suggests Rezvani’s latest build is based on the Lamborghini Urus. This would be a notable departure as the company typically bases their SUVs on American models such as the Cadillac Escalade and Jeep Wrangler.
Donor vehicle aside, the rear end doesn’t appear drastically different. However, we can see a ridiculous rear wing and partially covered taillights. We also wouldn’t be surprised to find a new rear bumper and a revised exhaust.
Little else is known about the Knight at this point, but Rezvani said it will have a twin-turbo V8 engine producing over 750 hp (559 kW / 760 PS). It will be joined by an all-wheel drive system, which enables the crossover to accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in less than three seconds. Customers will also be able to get a carbon fiber body, which promises to further reduce weight and improve performance.
Reservations are being accepted for a $500 refundable deposit and CEO Ferris Rezvani said, “Imagine daily driving a designer luxury SUV with supercar levels of performance and a design only seen in concept cars. Your daily commutes are about to get a lot more interesting!”
