After a billion total views across 10 wildly successful Gymkhana Films, setting the current bar for automotive action movies, Ken Block is back with a new partner to launch the future of Gymkhana. Driving an entirely bespoke machine developed and built by Audi, Ken Block is electrifying Gymkhana in the first ever Electrikhana! To provide the perfect setting for the 800 volt, bi-motor, AWD Audi S1 Hoonitron’s tire-slaying debut, Hoonigan Media Machine shut down one of the busiest cities in the world: LAS VEGAS.

Back when you saw Ken Block visit Audi headquarters in Ingolstadt to kick off their all- new partnership, what we couldn’t show you were the very first sketches for this: the Audi S1 Hoonitron. AKA a car built in the legendary halls of Audi Sport, for the sole purpose of being the world’s first all-electric Gymkhana car. From mind boggling wheel speeds to Group B inspired bodywork, the Hoonitron is unlike anything we’ve ever been around - so we dive into all of its wild and tech-heavy details.

On part two of our trip to Audi HQ in Ingolstadt, Germany, we stop by Audi Tradition, the brand's secret storage facility where they let me drive not one but TWO of the most iconic rally cars of all time. Walter Röhrl’s Monte Carlo winning Group B Sport Quattro S1 E2, and the top secret Group S prototype car (that only 5 people had driven previous to me). Childhood dream type stuff!!

I am excited to announce that I have teamed up with Audi on an electrifying new partnership, which will include expanding the Gymkhana franchise to include a new installment starring a very top secret Audi e-tron. The film, dubbed Electrikhana, is scheduled to release in 2022. This union will also see me exploring Audi’s cutting-edge racing and EV technologies, plus serve as a catalyst to push the limits of what’s possible in an electric vehicle. This partnership is literally a dream decades in the making. Audi’s efforts in the WRC, specifically with their Group B cars, along with their wins at Pikes Peak in the 1980’s is what led me down the path to become a rally driver. Their Quattro system pioneered the AWD car revolution and forever changed the sport of rally, and now I’m getting a chance to be a part of their next leap in motorsports with electric performance. It’s quite an honor, and humbling, to now consider myself a part of a team that I have highly respected for so long. And I can’t wait to share more details on the vehicle Audi is building for Electrikhana, it’s going to be insane. To lead off the new relationship, I recently traveled to Audi’s home in Ingolstadt, Germany to emerge in all things Four Rings. This trip is documented in a three-part series, the first episode of explores the influence, heritage, and the future of the automobile manufacturer in racing. I got to sample an arsenal from Audi’s current line up including the new ridiculous fast, Audi RS e-tron GT as well as the Audi e-tron Vision GT concept car. But while the partnership looks to the future of performance, I wasn’t going to miss out on an opportunity to drive some iconic machines from the past, including Hans Stuck’s championship winning DTM Audi V8 and Walter Röhrl’s legendary Group B Audi Quattro S1 E2. In addition, I got an intimate look at Audi’s all new Dakar-racecar, the RS Q e-tron racer that will be reimagining the way people view electrification in long distance, endurance racing. All of which can be seen in the coming episodes. And to answer the question on everyone’s minds: why the switch to electrified vehicles? For me, it’s simple really: It’s new. It’s high level performance. It’s the future. And new technology and forward thinking - the things Audi is great at - can be used to have even more fun with cars, and I am all about that. #electrichoonageiscoming https://www.progress.audi/progress/en/ken-block-electric-mobility-is-the-future.html #BlockGoesEtron #BLOCKxAUDI #AudiPartner Rad gear that The Hoonigans make for me: https://www.hoonigan.com/collections/ken-block Check out my Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/kblock43 Follow me on Twitter! https://twitter.com/kblock43 ]]> Wed 04 Jan 2023 21:03:08 +0200 https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/22582/ken-block-joins-audi-and-gets-the-ultimate-welcoming/ https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/22580/ken-block-s-new-audi-s1hoonitron-gymkhana-prototype/
The future of Gymkhana has arrived! Introducing my brand new Audi S1 e-tron quattro Hoonitron! Brian and I take a quick trip to Audi’s Design Center in Ingolstadt, Germany to see my 1 of 1 Gymkhana Prototype. It's wild that Audi was able to condense a one year build process from the drawing boards to reality in only four weeks! The all-electric Hoonitron is essentially a fully modernized version of one of my favorite race cars, the legendary Group B Audi Sport Quattro S1 E2, so I'm extremely excited for this. All that's left now is to patiently wait for my opportunity to Hoon it.

After debuting my Audi Sport Quattro replica “Turbo Monster” last year in Hoonigan’s RING LEADERS (https://youtu.be/Gufm5H4hZi0) and at SEMA in Toyo Tires booth, we had a long year of fine tuning some details in the car: from a custom exhaust from Borla for the 730+ horsepower inline-5 turbo engine, to fine tuning hand-brake location, and even registering the car complete with the custom CARCAIN(E) license plate. NOW we‘re finally able to give the Sport Quattro its first proper test at Willow Springs Raceway in Southern California. Full throttle pulls, i5 turbo exhaust sound music-to-ear science (thanks again Borla), handbrake slides, figure 8's, donuts, tire smoke (and a wheel lockup issue); the stress gets put on. After all, the goal here is to have a reliable (and hoon-capable; because when’s the last time I didn’t Hoon Test anything I drive regularly??) daily driver. Enjoy!!

We took the Head-Hoonigan-in-Charge to Germany to tame the infamous Turbo Monster Audi Sport Quattro replica and claim it as his very own! It’s been reborn as the ULTIMATE modern send-up to the Group B Rally golden age. The body in white-inspired livery hides a super light chassis made of carbon and carbon kevlar weaves, which makes the 730+ horsepower engine have that much more oomph. Rotiform designed the all-new ROC-H (for Hoonigan!) wheels in record time to get this ready for its debut at the TOYO Tires booth at #SEMA, and it sports two pairs of sticky R888r tires. Admit it— you’re jealous. I know I am! Enjoy.
