Zenvo Aurora Reveals An Even Prettier Look For Its Goodwood Reveal
Zenvo's Monster Twins Are Getting Tweaked At Monterey Car Week 2023, Danish automaker Zenvo revealed the new Aurora hypercar, and ahead of its debut at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed, the company has revealed some subtle changes to its design. Like the Keonigsegg Jesko twins, half of the Aurora's production run of 100 cars will be reserved for a track-focused, RWD Agil model, while the other half is for the AWD (and more powerful) Tur variant, which is meant to be a more comfortable cruiser. Zenvo has yet to show the changes as they translate to the former, which we'll likely see this weekend at Goodwood, so for now, let's see how the Tur has changed. You may need to squint. Subtle Changes Are Tough To Spot Zenvo didn't detail the changes, but closer inspection reveals a slightly altered front fascia where mesh now covers the grille openings, the hood has been reshaped, and the ends of the headlamps are now underpinned by more body-color material. At the rear, the diffuser is now larger and more curved, and the license plate holder has moved further down. It also looks like the rear deck has been extended slightly, which should further improve aerodynamic efficiency. McLaren's LT models and Koenigsegg's new Sadair's Spear have used this subtle change to great effect, but Zenvo has not updated any of the performance claims it initially made. Not that it needs to – the Aurora boasts some impressive numbers. Two Experiences To Choose From, Neither Of Which Is Cheap Whether you choose an Agil or a Tur, you get a quad-turbocharged 6.6-liter V12 that revs to a frankly absurd 9,800 rpm and delivers 1,250 horsepower all on its own. This MAHLE-developed engine (called Mjølner) is the most powerful production V12 on the planet. Choose the Agil, and Zenvo fits an electric motor to the rear axle, adding another 200 ponies to the horsepower claim, but if you go for the touring variant, Zenvo puts a pair of electric motors on the front axle instead, giving the Tur AWD and a whopping 1,850 hp. Each take on the Aurora will provide its own experience, even if you take the aero out of the equation. The Agil claims 0-62 mph in 2.5 seconds and a top speed of 227 mph, while the slipperier Tur gets to 62 mph in 2.3 seconds and keeps going until 280 mph. On the track, the Agil should wipe the floor with the faster car, thanks to 1,940 lbs of downforce at 155 mph and 331 lbs less weight (2,866 in the Agil versus 3,197 in the Tur). Zenvo expects to begin deliveries of its $2.8 million Aurora in 2026, after which it intends to launch a smaller hypercar that will be a relative bargain at $2 million.

Zenvo's Quad-Turbo Supercar Is Nearly Here. This Is What It'll Look Like
It's been nearly two years since Zenvo revealed the Aurora , a V-12-powered hybrid hypercar. The Danish automaker showcased two variants, the road-going Tur and the track-focused Agil, and has since then been fine-tuning the design. Ahead of the car's dynamic debut later this week, the company has revealed the Tur's final exterior shape. Zenvo doesn't mention what's changed, and to be honest, it looks almost identical to the original with a passing glance, but a closer inspection reveals a few tweaks. It has new rear-end styling, with a much more aggressive diffuser and a relocated license plate bracket. It also appears the rear deck is longer than before, housing a reshaped tailpipe and thicker taillights. Photo by: Zenvo Up front, the changes are even more subtle. The front openings now have mesh coverings, there's a bit more sheet metal underneath the daytime running lights, and the hood has been reshaped. While Zenvo is pitching the Aurora Tur as the road-going version, it's also the most potent of the two, even with both using the same quad-turbocharged 6.6-liter V12 engine . The Tur has three electric motors instead of one, upping the powertrain's output to 1,850 horsepower and 1,254 pound-feet of torque. Zenvo claims the car will hit 62 miles per hour in 2.3 seconds and reach a 280-mph top speed. The car will make a public appearance at the Goodwood Festival of Speed later this week. When Zenvo announced the car, it said production would not begin until 2026, and it appears the company is on schedule to meet that timeline. Just a few weeks ago, the company announced it would tap Alcon Components to provide the hypercar's braking system. In April, Zenvo showcased the first example of its V-12 engine built by Mahle.

Zenvo Unveils Record-Breaking 1,850-HP V12 Engine for New Aurora Hypercar
Read the full story on Modern Car Collector Danish hypercar maker Zenvo Automotive has unveiled what it claims is the most powerful V12 engine ever engineered for a road car, as it prepares to launch its latest flagship model, the Aurora. At the heart of this groundbreaking development is the 6.6-liter quad-turbocharged V12 named Mjølner, developed in collaboration with engineering firm MAHLE Powertrain. With the addition of a hybrid electric system, the powertrain is capable of generating a staggering 1,850 horsepower—putting it at the pinnacle of internal combustion engineering in a street-legal vehicle. More than just raw numbers, the Mjølner engine showcases cutting-edge innovation. Utilizing MAHLE's Jet Ignition system, the power unit promises not only explosive performance but also compliance with future emissions regulations. According to Zenvo, this advanced ignition technology allows the engine to run more efficiently and cleanly, making the Aurora suitable for both extreme track use and everyday road driving. 'We set out to create something truly extraordinary,' said Zenvo founder Troels Vollertsen. 'Mjølner is not just about power. It's about precision, innovation, and defining the future of performance for road-going hypercars.' The engine is part of a broader modular powertrain architecture that Zenvo intends to use across future models. This flexible system allows different configurations to be adapted for upcoming vehicles, signaling a strategic shift in how Zenvo approaches performance and sustainability. The Aurora, which will be the first car to receive the Mjølner engine, is expected to launch later this year. With a combination of blistering performance, hybrid efficiency, and bold engineering, Zenvo's latest creation appears poised to redefine the boundaries of road-going performance cars. Zenvo, long a boutique builder of exotic high-horsepower machines, now stands at the forefront of the next generation of hypercar technology. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter
