Shakira showed up driving this purple Lamborghini Urus S in her latest video, "Soltera." It was just a part she played in the video, and the super SUV left the set safe and sound. Now, the Latino star is gifting the Lambo to a fan.
Shakira announced her plans to her 90.7 million followers on Instagram, teasing the ultimate giveaway: "Do you believe I will gift my Lamborghini to someone?"
For those who did not believe what she wrote in the Instagram Story, she made a video with another Columban artist, Sebastian Yatra, to confirm it. He seems skeptical about her decision and says he is willing to take care of the Lambo when she is on tour.
Her Lamborghini Urus S is unlike any Urus out there. She customized the hell out of the model. She wrapped it in matte purple, contrasting with the multi-spoke wheels with a black finish.
The cabin is out of this world. The bucket seats are upholstered in white and neon green, while the seatbelts are also neon green. The super SUV showed up in her latest video "Soltera" (Spanish for "Single Woman"), which has already been watched by 69 million viewers on YouTube alone.

In the video, Shakira drives straight into a curb, seemingly hitting the side sill and rear wheel and tire on the passenger side. However, the incident was just a scene in the video, so probably (hopefully!) the vehicle left the set intact.
Sporting that sort of color scheme, Skakira's Urus might not appeal to anybody. Furthermore, she anti-advertised for the car in an interview for the Rolling Stones magazine: "There's nothing subtle or chic about it," she said. However, there might still be millions interested in getting their hands on the car.
While purple and neon green are not subtle and chic, they are definitely for someone who is not planning to keep a low profile. Besides, everyone out there is going to know they are driving the Lamborghini that once used to belong to none other than Shakira.
"I want a fan to have it, someone who will be happy in this car," she says. Whoever will take the Urus S home will grin all the way. The super SUV is set in motion by a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8, which pumps out 641 horsepower (650 metric horsepower) and 627 pound-feet (850 Newton meters) of torque.
Those are the numbers that make the Lambo SUV rocket from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 kph) in 3.6 seconds and hit a top speed of 190 mph (306 kph).

The Latino singer won't miss it much. She's got a gazillion other cars to drive around or be chauffeured in. She also owns a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, an Audi Q8 and Q7, a Tesla Model S, and a BMW X6, among others.
Shakira is also into sports cars. Over the years, she has been spotted driving a Ferrari 599 GTO, a Lamborghini Huracan, and a Porsche 911 Carrera S. However, she is not the luckiest driver out there. Two years ago, while she was cruising in a Volkswagen California, she got two flat tires on the same side of her van.
Meanwhile, to fire back at her after she launched the song that mocked her ex, soccer star Gerard Pique showed up driving a Renault Twingo, a reference to her lyric "You traded in a Ferrari for a Twingo." Yeah, we all know that Shakira is the Ferrari in this story.
