Affalterbach/Dietzhölztal, 17 July 2026 – Just over two years after the presentation of the project on November 16, 2023, HWA AG delivered HWA EVO chassis #001 to its customer. The vehicle was officially handed over to Prof. Dr. Friedhelm Loh during a ceremonial event at the Nationales Automuseum The Loh Collection. In addition to Prof. Dr. Friedhelm Loh, the handover ceremony was attended by Simon-Markus Loh, Hans Werner Aufrecht and HWA CEO Martin Marx.

The long-awaited debut of the racing version of the HWA EVO – the road car developed entirely by HWA – proved a resounding success right from the start at the 24 Hours of Nürburgring. Even before the race, the car had become a crowd favourite. In the presence of numerous key decision-makers from HWA’s strong partners, three HWA EVO.R cars took to the track in the world’s biggest and toughest race.

Werther / Affalterbach – RAVENOL and HWA are entering into a comprehensive strategic partnership. As part of this collaboration, RAVENOL will become HWA’s exclusive lubricant partner, supporting both the motorsport programme centred on the HWA EVO.R at the Nürburgring and the original equipment for the HWA EVO road car.

After 15 years of trusting cooperation in international customer racing, HWA AG would like to thank Mercedes-AMG for an extraordinary partnership that has had a lasting impact on GT racing for over one and a half decades. This marks the end of what is probably the most successful cooperation in the history of GT customer racing to date.
