A Leipzig-based paint shop has landed a lucrative contract to work on the Engler Desat Superquad, a 650-HP vehicle that costs around €600,000. This quad, designed by Victor Engler, is targeted at a very specific clientele—those who seek the extraordinary. With a top speed of 350 km/h and the ability to go from 0 to 100 km/h in just under 3 seconds, this luxury quad is expected to attract buyers primarily from the Arab region and Monaco.

The Engler Desat Superquad: Not Just a Toy
The Engler Desat Superquad is not just another high-speed vehicle; it’s a luxury toy for those who have everything and are looking for something truly unique. The quad is based on an Audi R8 and is expected to sell up to ten units per year. Thomas Hankel from the Leipzig agency “torpedo motor” believes that the target audience is clearly defined: people who are looking for something extraordinary.
“Made in Germany” Quality
To ensure the quad carries the “Made in Germany” quality label, the final painting will take place in Leipzig. Jörg Starke, who owns “Color Point” in Mölkau, will be responsible for this. The painting alone costs up to €30,000, making it a highly profitable contract for the Saxony-based firm.
Customization at its Best
The quad will receive its individual touch based on the buyer’s preferences. This customization is part of Leipzig’s expertise in the so-called “Custom” scene, which involves the tailored, individual design of vehicles. Each quad will be unique, reflecting the tastes and desires of its owner.
A Showcase in Leipzig
The Superquad will not only be painted in Leipzig but will also be driven there, especially in the Waldstraßenviertel area where some players from the RB Leipzig football team reside. To make the quad more appealing to these football professionals, it will be showcased at the Arena in September.
The Engler Desat Superquad is more than just a fast vehicle; it’s a statement of luxury and individuality. With its final touches being added in Leipzig, this quad is set to redefine the luxury vehicle market. For those who think they have everything, this might just be the next big thing to own.
