In November 2022, Ken Block and the Hoonigan team went to Mexico City to film the next installment of the Electrikhana series with the Audi S1 Hoonitron. However, the project was put on hold due to Block’s unfortunate passing. Today, the “Electrikhana TWO: The Mexico City Sessions” was launched on the Hoonigan YouTube channel, where Block, the Hoonigans, and Audi continue to push the boundaries of performance EV. The Audi S1 Hoonitron has seen significant improvements, including the introduction of simulated gears for better control during slides and donuts. Block also explores new driving features made possible with an EV drivetrain, such as opposite-driven wheels for standing AWD burnouts and the ability to shift into reverse at any speed. The film showcases Block’s thrilling driving through iconic areas of Mexico City, including the world’s largest bullring and the Benito Juárez International Airport. The credits pay tribute to Gymkhana in a nostalgic way. Watch the film on YouTube.
