The HWA EVO is one of the most ambitious automotive projects ever created, transforming the iconic Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II into a fully modern, road-legal performance machine. Developed by HWA, the company founded by AMG co-founder Hans Werner Aufrecht, the EVO combines a carbon fiber body, bespoke chassis, integrated roll cage, and a 520-horsepower twin-turbo V6 to deliver supercar performance while preserving the unmistakable DTM-inspired styling of the original Evo II.

In this exclusive review, Henry Catchpole explores the HWA EVO on the road, tours the HWA factory in Affalterbach, and gains behind-the-scenes access to the Nürburgring 24 Hours racing program. Discover how HWA transformed a classic Mercedes icon into a homologated modern masterpiece, complete with advanced suspension, race-bred engineering, and production limited to just 100 examples worldwide.
