Vinicius Junior’s Expensive Car Collection
Audi A7
As I’ve mentioned several times recently, footballers seem to have an unhealthy obsession with Audis. I’m not sure what it is about them, but I believe most managers could only dream of the camaraderie and teamwork shown for a vehicle brand. Vinicius, you have three Audis. One example is the Audi A7.
To be fair to the players, it’s a fantastic car from a reputable manufacturer. This sedan style combines the exceptional performance of a sporty Audi with a striking appearance. It has a 335 horsepower V6 engine and can accelerate from 0 to 60 in less than six seconds. Furthermore, the inside is pretty stunning and incorporates some of Audi’s known luxury amenities. The cost of $72,890 USD is prohibitively expensive for most people, yet Vinicius is said to earn $208,000 each week at Real Madrid. It’s odd to think of this car as a low-cost vehicle!
Audi e-Tron Sportback
Vinicius’ second Audi is even more inexpensive at $70,000 USD. Many would claim that it is superior to the Audi A7 because it boasts a 402 horsepower engine, an SUV-like design, a traditional grille, and LED headlights. One of the most recent electric vehicles makes the concept appear appealing because it is powerful, swift, and can charge to 80% in 30 minutes. Vinicius will surely tell you that opting for a more environmentally friendly solution does not imply sacrificing flair. Vinicius must need a lot of space in his car for all of his extra gear as he travels from club to practice to game.
Which vehicle should he buy next?
Vinicius’ last Audi (for the time being) is the Q7. It is by far his most expensive Audi and would normally cost $368,000 to purchase. However, because Vinicius is such a celebrity, he supposedly acquired this great car for free! Real Madrid and Audi have an agreement in which the automaker presents the team’s coach and players with a brand-new vehicle each season. Vinicius does possess an Audi Q7, but it will most likely be replaced in September by a new model.
