High-Performance Hybrid Powertrain with Four Drive Units

The Audi Nuvolari is powered by a hybrid high-performance powertrain with a maximum system output of 736 kW (1001 PS). It combines a 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine delivering a claimed 588 kW (800 hp) with three axial flux electric motors, each producing 110 kW. The lithium-ion battery has a gross capacity of 7.3 kWh.
• The combustion engine delivers a maximum torque of 730 Nm and reaches up to 10,000 rpm, a range previously reserved for motorsports.
• Two oil-cooled axial flux electric motors at the front axle deliver up to 2150 Nm of torque. As an integral part of the quattro system, they support variable torque distribution. A third electric motor between the V8 mid-engine and the transmission completes the drive configuration.
• The high-performance drivetrain accelerates the vehicle from 0-62 mph in 2.6 seconds and from 0-124 mph in 6.8 seconds, reaching a top speed of more than 217mph.
