The concept maintains the general proportions and volumes of the original car, with the muscular shoulders and wheel covers, adding a modern, sharp character line that runs along the entire vehicle, dividing it into an upper and a lower section.
The main dimensions of the car are a wheelbase of 2650 mm, a length of 4,795 mm, a width of 2,000 mm and a height of 1,090 mm, while the 18-inch wheels are fitted with 235/40 tires at the front and 285/35 tires at the rear.
The rear end features a retractable spoiler which – when in rest position – doesn’t break the body clean and essential shapes.
The hypothetic underlying drivetrain derives from the Audi R8 e-Tron.
The concept was created using the original drawings of the Type C as well as a 1:18 scale model as 3D reference.
