The story

Zenvo Automotive was founded in 2007. The first prototype of what became the Zenvo ST1 was completed in December 2008, and production began in 2009. Only 15 Zenvo ST1 cars were built and sold.

In April 2018, Bil Magasinet reported that despite Zenvo's feelings that their cars were too expensive for the home market, for the first time a Zenvo was sold to a Danish customer. It was a red Zenvo TSR-S, sold for DKK 10.5 million (US$1.65 million).

In 2019, Jens Sverdrup became an advisor, setting the vision for the planned V12-powered Aurora models and beyond. In 2021, Jens Sverdrup took a position as chairman and CCO.

In 2022, the TSR-GT model was launched with a production run of three units.

In August 2023, the Zenvo Aurora Agil and Tur models were unveiled at The Quail during Monterey Car Week.

In July 2024, Jon Gunner took the position of CTO and took responsibility for developing and leading the engineering team towards the production start of the Aurora model. Jon previously worked with Jens Sverdrup at Koenigsegg and Czinger where he held CTO and technical director positions. In 2026, Jon Gunner took over as CEO.
