Making the very most of Project Thunderball’s advanced electric powertrain to achieve the trademark Wiesmann driving feel, steering wheel-mounted paddles allow instant adjustment of the car’s unique Wiesmann Intelligent Regenerative Braking System. Developed specifically for Project Thunderball using some of the best engineering expertise in the industry, the system embodies the car’s ethos of timeless design and styling meeting cutting-edge innovation, setting the standard for future developments. With five settings available, the driver can change the twin electric motors’ regenerative braking feel to give a powerful engine braking effect into corners, recharging the battery and allowing optimum use and minimal waste of energy. In the true spirit of Wiesmann’s ‘Drivers’ car’ DNA, a change in setting gives a purposeful moment of enjoyment to the driver, something lacking in most EVs on the market today.

In another unique driver-oriented feature for Project Thunderball, the charge display shows how fast the car is charging specifically to the kilometre, rather than to the percentage of total charge, allowing the driver a simple calculation of the optimal charge level for each specific journey. Its integrated DC fast-charging system makes for convenient and efficient recharge, while its combined AC and water-glycol-cooled battery is optimised to be charged at high ambient temperatures.

And all this is just the beginning – as the electric revolution powers ahead, we continue to innovate and give Project Thunderball even more astonishing performance.
