Zenvo Automotive will unveil two Aurora Tur validation prototypes on Thursday at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, running July 9 to July 12, alongside an Aurora Agil show car. The debut comes as the Danish manufacturer prepares for Aurora production, with first customer deliveries targeted for the second half of 2027. The appearance follows the Aurora’s dynamic debut at last year’s festival.
The Aurora is built on an all-new bespoke platform and is offered in two variants: the Agil, a lightweight, track-focused but road-legal version, and the Tur, a grand touring design built on the same platform. Power comes from a 6.6-liter quad-turbocharged V12 developed with MAHLE Powertrain, targeting 1,250 bhp and 885 lb-ft (1,200 Nm) with a 9,800 rpm redline, which Zenvo says makes it the most powerful V12 fitted to a road car. The engine uses a 90-degree hot-V layout with variable-geometry turbochargers and pre-heated catalytic converters.
The V12 pairs with a triple electric motor system, one 200 bhp motor at the transmission and two more on the front axle producing a combined 400 bhp, for a targeted total output of 1,850 bhp and 1,254 lb-ft (1,700 Nm), depending on variant. Drive goes to all four wheels through a hybridized eight-speed paddle-shift gearbox with torque vectoring on the front axle.
The Tur is built around a carbon composite monocoque with carbon composite front and rear structures and body panels, riding on double-wishbone pushrod suspension at both ends with integrated underbody aerodynamics. Dry weight is 3,413 lb (1,548 kg). Zenvo estimates a top speed of 260 mph (420 km/h), 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.3 seconds, 0 to 186 mph (300 km/h) in nine seconds and 0 to 249 mph (400 km/h) in 17 seconds. The car runs Zenvo carbon ceramic brakes and bespoke aluminum center-lock wheels, 20×10 front and 21×12.5 rear, on Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires in 275/35R20 and 335/30R21. Production is limited to 50 units.
