i absolutely love this. i still can’t figure out exactly why—-however there is something very ‘vintage’ and ‘futuristic’ about this design. I even liked the vulgarity of their previous model (Gumpert Apollo)—-however i have to say that this one is not vulgar at all—-in fact it is stunningly cool. I’m digging the rear taillights, the split window, the vintage pillars…epic cool.

That front end looks ripped right off the E-Tron.
hmm…the e-trons all have much bigger grilles…and their headlights are along the front bumper, like the R8. like this; https://iedei.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/phpthumb_generated_thumbnailjpg.jpeg
Perhaps “ripped” wasn’t the right word as much as “heavily influcenced by”. In either case, I am not saying I don’t like it; I do – a lot and can’t wait to see it in full form.
Gumpert gets most parts from Audi anyway. So it is a valid guess.
Great piece of design, though! Very muscular and much more loveable than the Apollo
i know Roland Gumpert had a very successful position with Audi in the 80s as he headed Audi Sport during those years—–but i did not know the Gumpert shares part with Audi—is this well documented?
