Replacement for Displacement: Ken Block’s Audi RS e-tron GT

Plug and play. (Videos below)

Look, we get it. EV cars don’t exactly play to our pre-historic penchant for raw and aggressive masculinity machines. Why should we care? Why should YOU care? No rev limiter, no intoxicating noise, no fossil fuel depleting smell (besides tires). Well… Hoonigan cares, and that’s all that needs to be said. Ken Block doesn’t drive just anything. He’s a certified badass and this car gets our vote. To top it off, chances are it’s faster than your car.

Let’s get started. Ken has carefully crafted his new all-white fleet with meticulous precision. Not only did he leave the dark side (that’s a paint joke) but he left internal combustion motors in the dust with this Audi. Elegantly complimenting his SEMA-debuted Audi Sport Quattro is the new RS e-tron GT – It’s Audi, so it’s slick.

The Audi RS e-tron GT flaunts 637-environmentally-conscious-horsepower and 612ft/lb of torque, resulting in a competition-proven daily that earns its race pedigree and heritage in true style. Still not convinced? How about “instant torque?” Translation: That means it’s faster than your car off the line. Not only does this Audi accelerate like an exotic build, but it’s got four doors, full trunk, and still supports a cargo pod. Its pure electric, next generation, and getting Block ready for the next movement in automotive performance (sorry, haters). It’s a car that lets you pursue your hobbies, bring your friends, and have some fun along the way.

This car is ingenious and demands a unique sense of style. That’s why Ken Block came to us to outfit his technological anomaly with the only brand that can match its cool persona. Ken chose the Rotiform NGO forged monoblock 21×10 / 21×12 staggered setup in his typical ice white finish. We’ll call it “performance-oriented stance with some extra bravado.” We all know Ken Block doesn’t play – or dress – by the rules so we outfitted the front wheels for our signature AeroDisc so he can change his vibe depending on what sort of devastatingly-genre-pushing sh*t he’s up to.

Rotiform is no stranger to Audi, and the brand isn’t exactly a newcomer to headline-making performance. The Rotiform outfitted RS Q E-Tron went head-to-head with some of the industry’s most well-built desert warriors this past Dakar Rally, proving its technology against the rigors of the desert and fierce competition. The next generation of performance, style, and hoonage is here.

Not familiar with Hoonigan and Ken Block’s passion for science and all things ear-piercingly obnoxious and fast? Well let’s see what the Hoonigans are up to in the video, and how Ken’s all-electric Audi RS e-tron GT fares against whatever they throw at it.
