iCAUR South Africa will unveil the V27 to the public at this year’s Festival of Motoring.
The company is also opening pre-orders for the new flagship as it makes its first local appearance.
The reveal is part of a larger showing for iCAUR, which will also bring the 03T REEV to Kyalami and announce a long-term partnership with Red Bull.
The event takes place this weekend, from 28-30 August at the Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit.
A busy schedule of joint events is already planned for the coming months, with details to be released in stages.
The V27 sits at the top of the iCAUR range and continues the Future Classic design direction introduced by the V23.
Its squared proportions and upright stance are familiar, but the V27 is a larger and more refined interpretation, with a longer body, more interior space and a range-extender electric drivetrain.
A turbocharged 1.5-litre engine works with a 34.3 kWh battery and two electric motors to produce 339 kW.
The V27 has a published electric range of 150 km and a total driving range of more than 1,000 km, with the dual-motor model accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in five seconds.
The cabin includes a dual panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated front seats, ambient lighting and up to 50 storage spaces.
The chassis has been developed with support from the Prodrive racing team, while more than 76% of the vehicle’s safety structure is made from high-strength steel.
“The V27 is a significant vehicle for us, but we did not want its first public appearance to be a static reveal,” said Shannon Gahagan, National Brand and Marketing Manager at iCAUR and OMODA & JAECOO South Africa.
“Festival of Motoring gives people time to see the car properly, spend time with the range and get behind the wheel. Our partnership with Red Bull means that engagement will continue well beyond the weekend at Kyalami.”
The 03T REEV will be displayed alongside the V27, giving visitors an early look at another range-extended addition to the iCAUR line-up.
Further information on the model will be shared closer to its South African introduction.
Away from the vehicle display, iCAUR has planned the Festival experience as a journey through several touchpoints across the venue.
Pricing, derivatives and delivery timing will be confirmed.
The first events under the iCAUR and Red Bull partnership will also be announced over the next few months.
