Audi Nuvolari, Jaguar Type 01 Draw Backlash at Goodwood Ahead of 2027 Launches

Summary
Goodwood’s Instagram videos of the Audi Nuvolari and camouflaged Jaguar Type 01 triggered a wave of mostly negative comments, with users mocking both cars’ styling after their hill-climb runs.
The backlash hit two key 2027 models: Audi’s surprise-revealed Nuvolari supercar—limited to 499 units—and Jaguar’s Type 01, which is meant to relaunch the brand in the electric ultra-luxury segment.
Jaguar’s design verdict may still shift because the Type 01 remains under camouflage, with a full reveal scheduled for October in New York.
Audi faces a broader test because the Nuvolari debuts the brand’s new production design language, which will spread to more models including an electric sports car in 2027 and the A4 E-Tron a year later.
