Austrian roots

Deus Automobiles is a new company that was founded just two years ago. Despite being new to the game, the automaker has partnered with top-tier automotive suppliers. Partners in its first foray into auto-making include styling house Italdesign and Williams Advanced Engineering.

“At Deus, design is not merely about the looks, it is an integrated concept that reflects the marque’s main credo: to effortlessly combine exquisite design and functionality with cutting-edge technology in the EV hypercar segment. To showcase this harmony, we chose to stylise the Vayanne around the idea of symmetry and geometric alignment of its lines and design features,” said Adrian-Filip Butuca, head of design at Deus.

Predicted performance

The new automaker has made some pretty bold claims about the Deus Vayanne. They say it will have 1 640 kW of power and over 2 000 N.m of torque. As a result, it will have a top speed of more than 400 km/h and can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in under 1,99 seconds.
