Rennsport teases HWA EVO restomod

A new car looks set to join the Rennsport roster, as the embattled sim racing game has teased the HWA EVO.

Hans Werner Aufrecht’s (HWA) German motosport and development firm has a long association with Mercedes-Benz – Hans was a founder of AMG. While its latest model isn’t officially sanctioned, it’s a modern-day interpretation (or extreme ‘restomod’) of the 190E Cosworth from the 1980s.

The outfit will create 100 versions for the road, and as part of the development process, is competing at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, including this coming week’s 24 Hours of Nürburgring.

Rennsport’s brief video teaser shows a shadowy silhouette, but we can spot the EVO tanks to its blocky proportions. It’s also the race version thanks to the additional spotlights.

There’s no release window for this model yet, as a switch from Nacon to self-publishing on consoles has delayed game updates and DLC. Originally slated for March, there’s now the intention of this month instead for the release.

“The targeted May release of Endurance Classics Part 1 remains our priority, but we’re already shaping the grid for what comes after,” reads the social media caption.
