Ken Block’s electric car was the Audi S1 e-tron quattro “Hoonitron,” a one-off built by Audi Sport for his Electrikhana films in Las Vegas. It runs twin electric motors with all-wheel drive, a carbon-fibre chassis, and FIA-level safety—because turning tyres into smoke shouldn’t mean singeing eyebrows. Audi never published full power figures, but the instant torque and regen party tricks (hello, reverse donuts) did the talking. Styled as a modern love letter to the ’80s Sport quattro S1, it swaps turbos and petrol for electrons and tyre budgets. Same Block mayhem—just plugged in rather than topped up.
