Audi Has Built A New V16 Hypercar! | 4K

From the creator

This is a new mid-engined Audi hypercar, and it’s powered by a supercharged 6.0-litre V16 engine. However, while Audi really did finish building it just a few weeks ago, the reality is that the Auto Union Lucca (to give it its full and official name) isn’t a new design, but a recreation of a 1930s legend. Commissioned by Audi's heritage department, Audi Tradition, it’s a replica of a pre-war spaceship, a record-breaker that went beyond 200mph to set the highest top speed ever achieved on the road. That was mind-blowing in 1935, but the story behind its original creation, its record-setting run, and why it exists again today is even more fascinating… 🚗 Auto Union Lucca 🎤 Ollie Kew 🎥 Subscribe to Top Gear YouTube: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear ⏪ Subscribe to Top Gear Classic YouTube: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear 📖 Subscribe to Top Gear Magazine: https://top-gear.visitlink.me/YeyndO 🎧 Top Gear Magazine Podcast: https://topgear.podlink.to/Podcast ✉️ Top Gear Newsletter: https://www.topgear.com/newsletter-signup 🛍️ Top Gear Shop: https://www.topgear.com/shop Follow Top Gear ⬇️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/topgear/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/topgear TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@topgear X/Twitter: https://x.com/BBC_TopGear This is a commercial channel from BBC Studios.
