“We are really satisfied with the results achieved with the Vayanne, in this first phase of our collaboration with DEUS,” said Marco Volpengo, Italdesign head of automotive business development Europe. “Moreover, we are excited to apply and integrate the innovative technologies provided by our partner Williams Advanced Engineering.”

The Vayanne has 4.7 inches of ground clearance, and the front and rear grilles are meant to represent the infinity loop. Inside the Vayanne, the natural leather selected for the upholstery is treated and produced with sustainable and technologically advanced solutions with a commitment towards zero waste for a circular economic model.

DEUS is developing active sound to enhance the driving experience.

“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,” said Adrian-Filip Butuca, head of design at DEUS.
