. That might have something to do with E-Legend's founder, Marcus Holzinger, being the son of Wolfgang Holzinger, a modeler at Audi in the early 1980s who worked on the Audi Sport Quattro's lines. The S1 version won a single rally, the San Remo event in 1985 with Walter Röhrl at the wheel, and zero championships. The classic model made about 476 hp and 354 lb-ft from a turbocharged 2.1-liter inline-five-cylinder engine and weighed roughly 2,580 pounds.
The prototype is still being worked up to its target figures and final equipment spec, though. At the moment, the pre-pro version makes 604 horses from its two 302-hp rear motors. When everything is cranked up, the ultimate plan is to have the front motor contribute a further 201 hp, the torque split about 280 lb-ft from the front motor and about 247 lb-ft from each of the rear motors.
E-Legend's put the production run for the EL1 at 30 units, each starting at 890,000 euros . The price includes that sensational looking interior as well as features like power windows, air conditioning, parking sensors, and a rear-view camera. The plan is to show the production version at the 2024Car Week. E-Legend says it's already conceiving its follow-up product, another rally legend that will become the EL2.
