And there will likely be extra … as a result of from E-Legend the announcement of the EL1 has not come alone and from the German firm they’ve already confirmed that there will likely be two extra baptized as EL2 and EL3 and with 30 models of every on the market. The 2 will likely be electrical reinterpretations of nice rally icons, which is why names comparable to the Lancia Stratos HF Stradale (certainly the EL2 has rear wheel drive and there was a Stratos unit current at the EL1 present), Lancia Delta S4, Lancia Rally 037, Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 E2 and Renault 5 Maxi Turbo.
At the second, the venture intends to launch as much as 30 models on sale in 2022 of the electric Audi Sport Quattro, sorry, of the EL1, all of them at a worth above the 1.06 million euros. Who stated {that a} design from the eighties wouldn’t have a spot in the XXI century?
