The 2027 Audi Nuvolari supercar has been debuted by the brand as a high-performance vehicle that embraces the brand's legacy, while also keeping an eye on modern technological advancements.
The vehicle is named after legendary driver Tazio Nuvolari who was associated with the brand's ancestor Auto Union during the 1930s. The plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) has three axial-flex electric motors that deliver 987-horsepower, which comes in as the highest level yet for a production vehicle from the brand. Drivers can enjoy acceleration from zero to 62mph in 2.6-seconds with a top speed of 217mph.
The 2027 Audi Nuvolari supercar is constructed with the Audi Space Frame with a carbon fiber body and will be limited to just 499 examples that are expected to be priced around the €600,000 mark.
