Driving an entirely bespoke machine developed and built by Audi, Ken Block is electrifying Gymkhana in the first ever Electrikhana!
Showcasing his skills behind the wheel of any race car, professional driver Ken Block has created ten wildly successful Gymkhana films with over a billion views on YouTube. Since making the change to Audi as the main sponsor, Block and his team have vigorously worked to unleash their all-electric 1985 Audi Sport Quattro S1 race car on iconic hill climbs like Pikes Peak International. Ken Block and Hoonigan are taking the Audi S1 Hoonitron to the high-stakes playground of Las Vegas for their all-new Electrikhana video.

Developed with e-tron performance from Formula E, Ken maneuvers the Audi through the closed streets of Sin City with more than 4,425-foot-pounds of torque at his disposal. With a non-traditional electric powertrain, battery whines and tire screeching are the results of the high-speed stunts. The city of Las Vegas provides scenic backgrounds that include multiple Casinos, the Las Vegas Strip, and the Fremont Experience, making this one of the most technically ambitious films for the Hoonigan crew.
