Audi's first hybrid supercar, the Audi Nuvolari, will stand as the most powerful and fastest production model in the brand's history.

With a remarkable 1,001 PS and a top speed beyond 350 km/h, the Audi Nuvolari pairs Formula 1 inspired active aerodynamics with cutting-edge hybrid technology to deliver extraordinary performance and efficiency. Production will be limited to just 499 examples worldwide, securing its place among the most exclusive Audi models ever created.

As the first production vehicle to embody Audi's new design philosophy, the Nuvolari will combine the breathtaking performance of a supercar with a distinctive design. Sculpted surfaces, integrated technology, and intelligent aerodynamics come together to create a vehicle that is as visually striking as it is capable, signaling a new era for the Audi brand.

Audi Nuvolari Supercar Performance

Specs and Engine

At the heart of the Audi Nuvolari is a revolutionary hybrid high-performance powertrain that delivers an astonishing 1,001 PS. A twin turbocharged 4.0 liter V8 producing 800 horsepower works in harmony with three advanced axial flux electric motors, each contributing 110 kW, creating a level of performance that pushes far beyond conventional supercar territory. Power is supplied by a 7.3 kWh lithium-ion battery, ensuring instant response whenever the driver calls for it.

The V8 alone generates 730 Nm of torque and revs all the way to 10,000 rpm, a figure more commonly associated with purpose-built race cars than road going machines.

Up front, two oil cooled electric motors unleash up to 2,150 Nm of torque while actively supporting Audi's quattro all-wheel-drive system with intelligent torque distribution. A third electric motor positioned between the mid mounted V8 and transmission completes a drivetrain engineered for relentless acceleration.

The result is breathtaking. The Nuvolari launches from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.6 seconds and reaches 200 km/h in only 6.8 seconds before continuing on to a top speed exceeding 350 km/h. It is a machine designed to challenge expectations and redefine what is possible from an Audi. More about Audi's first hybrid supercar here.

Audi Nuvolari quattro

Audi takes the next step in all-wheel-drive technology with predictive ride dynamics, setting a new benchmark for intelligent vehicle control. Audi's predictive ride dynamics system continuously analyzes the vehicle's behavior through an advanced real-time model. Sensors monitor steering angle, acceleration, vehicle rotation, and current vehicle grip level, providing the system with a detailed understanding of current driving conditions.

When reduced traction is anticipated in a corner, the vehicle responds proactively. Torque is distributed precisely where it is needed, the brakes make targeted adjustments to minimize slip and improve stability, and the active aerodynamics optimize downforce for the situation.

A key element of the system is the pair of electric motors on the front axle, which enable advanced torque vectoring for sharper cornering and enhanced stability at higher speeds.

By intelligently coordinating these systems, the Audi Nuvolari delivers exceptional traction, control, and confidence, even during significant lateral forces, tire slip, wet or snowy conditions, and rapidly changing road surfaces.

Audi Nuvolari Interior

The interior of the Nuvolari is designed around a single purpose: creating a deeper connection between driver and machine. A clean, purposeful layout places essential controls and key HMI elements directly within the driver's view, keeping attention focused on the road while secondary information remains discreetly in the background. Digital displays and physical controls work together seamlessly, creating an intuitive and natural user experience.

The cabin is thoughtfully divided into two zones. The front features deep, dark tones that enhance focus and concentration, while the rear introduces the lighter Shadow Dune finish, creating a welcoming sense of space. Every detail reflects exceptional craftsmanship, from the precision controls and air vents to the anodized aluminum frame surrounding the central display.

Lightweight seats with carbon fiber structures reduce weight while delivering impressive rigidity and lateral support. Their ergonomic design promotes a natural seating position and provides a direct connection to both the vehicle and the road, making every drive feel more engaging.

Audi Nuvolari Exterior

The Nuvolari showcases a new benchmark in lightweight engineering, combining Audi Space Frame technology with a full carbon fiber exterior for the first time in the brand's history. Designed for exceptional torsional rigidity and reduced weight, every carbon component has been developed using knowledge and techniques derived from Formula 1.

Advanced prepreg autoclave manufacturing shapes and cures the carbon fiber under intense pressure and heat, creating outstanding strength while keeping mass to a minimum. In high temperature areas, specially engineered heat-resistant materials deliver both functional performance and striking visual character. Completing the exterior are forged center lock wheels, making their first appearance on a production Audi and reinforcing the Nuvolari's unmistakable motorsport inspired identity.
