Elite Cars Reveals Zenvo Aurora for the First Time in Mena

The Elite Cars, the authorized distributor of Danish-brand Zenvo Automotive across the MENA region, launched the Zenvo Aurora on February 21, 2024.

Inspired by the majestic Aurora Borealis, the launch event took place under the stars in the UAE at Atlantis The Royal, located on Palm Jumeirah. The newest model comes in two distinct and purposeful derivatives, the Agil and Tur, and will be limited to just 50 pieces of each model. Nearly 50% of the highly-anticipated models have already been booked for pre-production.

Mr. Mahmoud Imran, Sales and Operations Manager at The Elite Cars and Chairman of the Board and Chief Commercial Officer of Zenvo, Mr. Jens Sverdrup, introduced the eagerly awaited hypercar. The grand reveal was orchestrated by a synchronized light performance that emulated the graceful and impactful movements of the Aurora Borealis.

Renowned for crafting artisan hypercars, Zenvo stands out with the Aurora as its lightest and most innovative model, starting at Euros 2.590 million (approximately AED 11-12 million). It features the most powerful V12 engine ever fitted to a road car. At the heart, a 6.6-litre quad-turbocharged V12 engine paired with lightweight electric motors produces 1850 hp for the Tur and 1450 hp for the Agil.

Designed by in-house chief designer Christian Brandt, both derivatives bring Danish artistry and ingenuity to the hypercar market for the first time, inspired by the famous ‘form follows function’ design language.

Utilizing Formula 1 technologies and processes, the Aurora is designed with driving pleasure in mind, achieving the 0-100km/h sprint in as little as 2.3 seconds and to a top speed of 450 km/h. With both two- and four-wheel-drive drivetrains, it can travel up to 35 km on pure electric power.

Both models feature a lightweight chassis design, cleanly channelling the airflow through the structure to aid downforce and stability. The aerodynamically aggressive Aurora Agil features a standard stripped-out cabin and rear-wheel drive system, tipping the scales at 1,300kg, with a clear focus on track driving.

The more classically styled Aurora Tur offers elevated luxury and is a permanent four-wheel-drive, with two additional electric motors on the front wheels providing 200 bph each, enhancing speed and stability for road driving.
