A replica of the K.I.T.T. vehicle from the television series Knight Rider, a 1982 Pontiac, is scheduled for auction by Broad Arrow Auctions in Switzerland. The vehicle was used by David Hasselhoff during his 1985 European promotional tours.

The car has a history of theft in Italy, after which it was recovered by Interpol in the Czech Republic with significant electronic damage. The current owner has since restored the vehicle, including the cockpit, to replicate the original studio design with specialized components such as a yoke steering wheel and dual monitors.

The auction is set to take place on November 7. The 1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am features a 5.0 liter V8 engine producing 165 CV and includes aesthetic details such as a front red scanner to simulate the show’s artificial intelligence. While the vehicle lost its original instrument cluster electronics during the theft in the 1990s, it retains its characteristic dashboard and Gullwing design steering wheel. Experts estimate the auction could reach prices of over 270,000 euros.
