Audi Bets on Nuvolari Supercar to Revive Brand as EV Lineup Falters

Summary
Audi is pinning a turnaround on the Nuvolari supercar as the Volkswagen premium brand tries to regain momentum after losing much of its cachet.
Trade tariffs, intensifying competition and a patchy electric-vehicle roster have eroded Audi’s position, leaving the brand under pressure in key markets.
The Nuvolari push highlights Audi’s effort to use a halo model to rebuild appeal while it works through broader product and competitiveness problems.
For Volkswagen, the move underscores how legacy premium marques are leaning on high-end combustion-era prestige even as weak EV execution reshapes the luxury market.
