Austria’s DEUS Automobiles revealed today that its upcoming all-electric hypercar will debut on April 13, 2022, ahead of the New York International Auto Show. It also revealed that it will be named after the city of Vienna, bearing the name DEUS Vayanne.
Along with two new teaser images of the
car, DEUS has also released a short video teaser to get us excited about its
vision for all-electric overindulgence. Although the company has not yet
revealed precise details about the car, it has previously said that it will be
working with Williams Advanced Engineering and Italdesign on this project.
Back in April 2021, the companies involved
had said they were working together to create an all-electric vehicle platform
for customers. Dubbed EVX, it features a composite structural battery pack that
can deliver 104 kWh, 120 kWh, or even 160 kWh of power, depending on packaging
requirements. That battery pack supplies an EV drivetrain that can churn out up
to 1,341 hp, which would make this a potent vehicle,
indeed.
And as with all the best hypercars, the
technical know-how behind its powertrain comes from the race track, since
Williams Advanced Engineering supplies batteries for the entire Formula E grid
and other electric racing series.
DEUS has previously said that it’s part of
a group of businesses with more than 30 years of success in industries ranging
from publishing to packaging. Now it will see if it can succeed in the
competitive world of all-electric hypercars.
