Olympian Model 01 Electric Vehicle: A Luxurious Drive

Introducing the Olympian Model 01, the flagship electric vehicle designed for exceptional entrepreneurs, artists, and scientists. Manufactured in the USA and available from 2025, this EV signifies luxury and innovation, balancing nature, minimalism, and aesthetics perfectly.

1. Retro Glamour with Modern Brawn: Olympian Model 01 Design

Welcome to the electric future with a twist of the 1930s. The Olympian Model 01 ditches sharp angles for flowing curves, combining teardrop tails, chrome highlights, and a military-grade carbon fiber and titanium shell. It’s more vintage Riviera cruise than Silicon Valley spaceship.

  • Length: 4,960 mm (195.3 in)
  • Width: 1,889 mm (74.4 in)
  • Height: 1,637 mm (64.4 in)
  • Wheelbase: 2,758 mm (108.6 in)
  • Drag Coefficient: ~0.29

Over 50 color combos and 20-inch alloy wheels complete the package. It’s a bold departure from the clean-sheet minimalism of Tesla’s Model 3 and a refreshing detour from BMW’s techno-futurism.

2. Electric Power with a Retro Punch

Underneath the pretty face, the Model 01 packs legitimate muscle:

  • Motor: 310 hp (228 kW) rear-mounted
  • Torque: 305 lb-ft (414 Nm)
  • 0–60 mph: 5.7 seconds
  • Top Speed: 155–160 mph (250–257 km/h)

The 82 kWh lithium-ion battery promises a 305-mile EPA range. Real-world figures should land around 250–280 miles, competitive with Audi’s e-tron and trailing Tesla’s Model 3 Long Range by a hair.

  • Battery: 82 kWh (400V)
  • DC Fast Charging: 150 kW (10–80% in ~30 min)
  • AC Charging: 11 kW (7–8 hours full)

And yes, it speaks Tesla’s language—NACS plug included. Supercharger network? No problem.

3. Screen-Free Sanctuary: The Model 01’s Interior

Step inside and forget every massive touchscreen you’ve seen. The Olympian Model 01 goes old school, trading glass slabs for exotic woods, silk, cashmere, and brushed steel.

  • Seating: 4-passenger layout
  • HUD: AR-enabled (Augmented Reality)
  • Voice Controls: Olympian Operating System (OOS)

No central display. No buttons cluttering your sightlines. Instead, you talk to your car and it listens (hopefully). It’s a tactile return to craftsmanship, not gadgetry.

Compared to the Tesla Model 3’s touchscreen palace and the Q6 e-tron’s panoramic panels, the Model 01 feels almost monastic—but in a good way.

4. Cutting Through the Hype: Tech and Practicality

Here’s where things get spicy. Olympian promises a privacy-first operating system, free from app store surveillance. Instead, the AR HUD displays critical info while OOS handles your commands.

  • Infotainment: Voice-first (no screen)
  • Navigation, Media, Climate: Voice-controlled
  • Connectivity: NACS compatibility, OTA updates rumored

ADAS features like adaptive cruise or emergency braking? Unknown. That’s a red flag when rivals like the Audi e-tron and BMW i4 are practically driving themselves.

5. On the Road: Real-World Usability

The Model 01’s 305-mile range makes it ideal for city slickers and weekend adventurers alike. Its 4.96-meter length is manageable for urban life, while NACS access ensures painless long-distance travel.

  • Daily Range: 250–280 miles (real-world)
  • Charging Network: Tesla Superchargers (NACS plug)
  • Comfort: Focused on luxury and noise isolation

Families might struggle with the four-seat limit, and cargo space (400–500 liters estimated) won’t replace your crossover. But if you value experience over spreadsheets, you’ll feel right at home.

6. How It Stacks Against Rivals

In a world of Tesla tech, Audi luxury, and BMW driving precision, where does Olympian land?

  • Tesla Model 3 Long Range: 341 miles EPA, $55,000, faster but less luxurious
  • Audi e-tron: 226 miles EPA, $66,000, tech-heavy, shorter range
  • BMW i4 eDrive40: 301 miles EPA, $85,000, more power, screen-rich interior

Meanwhile, compared to the SUVs like Audi Q6 e-tron or Nio EL8? Different planet. The Olympian Model 01 is carving a niche for buyers who think Tesla’s future looks a little too much like a Best Buy showroom.

7. The Math: Pricing and Ownership

Olympian sets the Model 01’s sticker at $80,000. That's a chunk above the Model 3 but still competitive with high-end BMW and Audi sedans.

  • Price: $80,000 USD
  • Deposit: $500 refundable (US, Canada, China)
  • Production: 320 units (2025 goal)

Cost of ownership? Expect minimal maintenance, $0.03–$0.05/mile energy costs, and low running costs—if they can deliver reliability.

But limited production, unclear warranties, and lack of resale history are real concerns for cautious buyers.

8. Final Word: Charm Over Tech Overload

The Olympian Model 01 isn’t here to dominate EV sales charts. It’s a handcrafted counterpoint to the increasingly screen-addled EV market. Retro elegance, premium materials, and voice-first control carve it a unique spot among luxury sedans.

If Olympian Motors can turn promises into production reality, this could be the thinking driver’s alternative to Tesla’s Model 3 and BMW’s i4. If they stumble? Well, at least they’ll have gone down swinging—with style.

  • Best For: Entrepreneurs, creatives, design-first buyers
  • Not For: Tech addicts, large families, ADAS seekers

One thing’s for sure: in a parking lot full of anonymous electric crossovers, the Olympian Model 01 will be the one everyone stares at—and maybe even whispers about.
