certain they set out into the icy wilderness of greenland to create a life threatening film project that became a major milestone in their lives. love seduction. our ice cold passion starts october. it's on d. w. today on rest, the auto and mobility show fast and nimble. even though they might not look at rev delves into the fascinating world of sleeper cars and people mover of another kind made a female interstate driver in chaotic lagos, motors along undaunted. there's

a turn for cars with a big bike beneath their low key exterior sleepers. classic examples are the b, m, w, m 3 and m 5 and audio r as to and r a 6. and there have been plenty of other comic has following seats, but sports sedans and performance estates over the years, an ongoing rival, we developed as the 2 big brands by 4 position. the r s 6 avant became the quintessential sleep. but was to become of the good old performance estate and its monstrous engine output as the electric air dorms, a species facing extinction. ah, the a 6 avant each run is audio vision of how the electric estate of the future might look. we can only speculate whether they'll be in addition that deserves to spot the r s badge to but the for the future hits the road. let's take a look back at the his, our fast estates and sleep is b m w,

founded it's m for motor sports division in 1972 followed a decade later by audi with the quatro b, m. w introduced its 1st sleeper in 1992. the m 5 touring was the fastest station wagon on the planet at the time. the 34 models, summer debbie's, sumptuous 340 horse power from its 3.8 liter engine. but with production limited to under a 1000 units, the estate versions of b. m, w's, $3.00 and $5.00 series were a non starter. already responded in 1994 with the iris to advance which attained legendary status as a portion thanks to its performance and practical value, the fastest and most powerful production audi at the time was built by portia and packed a 2.2 liter 5 cylinder engine. delivering 315 horsepower,

it was the predecessor of the r s for additions unleashed in 1999 and started muscling in on the m 5 turing's territory. the arias to avant cause the equivalent of almost 50000 euros back then, and is one of the pioneers of the performance estate segment. can be on sports car performance and station wagon might not seem compatible, but the audi brand is firmly established in the estate segments have gotten damaged from. we'd already made a big statement with a hugely successful ours to close. and if, if the alter was super poor close, while the m w has had high performance sedans in its range since the m 3 in 1985, it was initially only built as a sedan and convertible. the copay edition followed later. the em 3 touring and other body variance were available as concept editions. but b, m w, so precious few takers in the segment. it wasn't until

2022, that the munich base comic had the idea of offering an estate version of the new m 3 as well, while others are uttering in the end of the combustion engine b, m w boldly, and build a performance estate generating 510 horse power from a 3 lisa in line 6 unit, and officially going from 0 to 100 in 3.6 seconds. so when i called it b m w has a long tradition of motor sports and is a dynamic company's group. and bob looked once said something that could be our motto to this day, accompanies like a human being. it's either, as long as it goes in for sports is fit, are well trained and full of performance at the school. and that definitely holds true for b. m w from dose post to show fear of it. so launched in 1985 the m 5 notch back sedan is now in its 6th generation with a certain extra trunk capacity added only later.

this looking for a taste of motor sports in an estate where cater to buy the m 5 turing built between 272010. it boasts a huge $507.00 horsepower 5 lisa v. 10 engine with a top speed of 307 kilometers per hour, but with barely over a 1000 units sold in 3 years, the touring was soon discontinued. ah, but he had already entered the performance estate frey in 1994 with the our is to yvonne's it was followed in 2002 by their response to the developments with the m 5 . the full $150.00 horsepower arrest 6 avant. unlike beam w already made an avid commitment to station wagons where else

before we just put our 1st vehicle of yours for on the market in 1099, work better and as we wanted to expand our portfolio lockers, the obvious next move was to go into the mid range see segment and bring out an are as 6 of just wanted to bring the 1st generation of the iris 6 was powered by audi's most powerful engine to date. it's 4.2 liter v 8 engine built by british motor sports specialists cost with mobilizes 450 horsepower and 560 newton meters of torque walter. we wanted to go a big step up with the r s in terms of output. and torque, and that meant a v 8 by turbo beetle real. the ari 6 was a bona fide sleeper with only subtle changes on the front why the wheel arches and

side skirts as well as modified front ambria, a prince and a honeycomb mesh. the oval shaped steel tailpipes have remained to this day. the 3rd generation of the r 6 was available as an estate or sudan. production for the 2 versions totaled, $8081.00 units. ah, well, the design is originally intended to equip the car with an output of 500 horsepower that eventually proved 50 too many for the transmission to cope with very finger on them. at 1st we exceeded customers expectations. well, it was a bit crazy for that time, any photo, but it was a fantastic statement from a book with nobody expecting a car with over 450 horsepower. customers loved it the lot. so it was a 2 year production cycle for the 1st model was fairly short and then people were

looking forward to the next generation where we wanted to continue the success story, which is good. i push, i'm more ah, the 2nd generation of the r a 6 was built between 282010. the model was powered by my sheep, but heavy 5 liter v 10 engine. the imperious 580 horsepower propelled the 2 ton station wagon from 0 to 100 in 4.6 seconds, making the car only a 10th of a 2nd quicker than its predecessor. the c 5 customers could pay extra to push that top speed up to $280.00, shortly before the end of its production cycle. a plus addition limited to $500.00 units was produced. it was identical in construction but was now able to crack 300 kilometers per hour. the 10 cylinder engine was available at the time in

a range of models in various configurations. by o d audi featured 3 different d chad engines, at the time of the essex had an aspirated version with forage and 50 horsepower. fyodor firm, which perv been past the lamborghini, golardo and audi. r a do oh, had a high ref concept version as well. going up to 8400 our piano with dry sump lubrication . again, with an aspirated options, rogo hold on, and the 3rd one became the engine for the r 6 a by turbo with dry salt beetle with 580 horse power, the most powerful audi ever back there. the audi bought the entry price for this powerful avant was just over 110000 heroes. visually, the 2nd generation, likewise, had an understated appearance. behind the 20 inch rims were enormous

perforated and floating break disks, measuring 390 millimeters wide on the front axle production of this model amounted to 4674 units with estates, accounting for 83 percent. ah, that seemed at once the 2nd generation of the r as 6, the c 6 was at the end of its life cycle. obviously we wondered how the story would continue with the c 7. take me moment viper b gets been c's even further, given the growing importance of carbon emissions. if we wanted the new car to be far more economical than the si, 6, division problem her thus via meter moines, odour boyish possibly. and as we decided on a downsizing concept, we shifted down from a v 10 by turbo to a v 8 vote. same be doable. of i know,

fall off, we integrated cylinder deactivation, which turns off 4 cylinders during low, low conditioner, zip logan russell, that enabled us to lower fuel consumption by around 30 percent during moderate driving compared to the preceding model for both. oh, read through lots of sutras, evasion, gig, reporting on more than 2013. so the arrival of the 3rd generation of the ar is 6 of us with a v 8 harnessing 560 horses from the fully to capacity. for the 1st time, the new model pack less power than the outgoing version. then again, the extra beef in the performance edition translated into $605.00 horsepower. we are not all of it as usual towards the end of the life cycle. we looked at what we could still do with the c 7 brennan run and decided to turn pluses into performance maha and on. and she, we opted for a different strategy, emphasis, and in future when you similar components with other models,

as seen with the r as q 3. and i'm with in the, at a school that i performance in this year, both on the r 6 and red is a performance models. on the one hand, that means more output else up from 5, a trans 60 to 605 horsepower field fixed on the 20th, and using an over boost function. we also managed to up the torque to 750 newton meters. despite the smaller engine and lower capacity, the r is 6 is faster than the previous model. it takes just 3.7 seconds for the dash, $2100.00. top speed is electronically limited to 305 kilometers per hour. or the new c 7 generation. so almost $25000.00 units. now the estate was most definitely a hit with its fans. it was the 1st time the aria 6 was available exclusively in this body style variant. it's now history,

but filling the void it left was the arrest, 7, fos, back to $34.00 on the vehicle dynamics front. we added a further highlight. in addition to the torque vectoring, we now also have rear axle steering for extra agility. the dogs lingual beautiful foot tools and the far smaller churning circle means it also helps with parking. i'm talking here just wondering because of border sino root the current generation of the arrest 6 launched in 2019 was without doubt the most exciting sporty estate of all time in visual terms. the sol common elements with the a 6 with the roof, the front doors and the tailgate. all the other body parts were brand new. looks wise, this model made the most conspicuous departure from its entry level sister version . as if there was ever

a car absolutely geared to performance. this one was it with a body full centimeters wider on each side in order to ensure a sufficient room for the gigantic, optional $22.00 inch rims with the mild hybrid system on board. the c, a mighty fully survey generates $600.00 horses, acceleration and top speed are about the same as its predecessors. but weighing in a 2.15 tons. it's also the heaviest r s 6 ever built. you don't notice the increase in weight from the mild hybrid components, the rear axle steering and she a be provided by the engine. also make it more agile than it's ancestors and made it quite popular to break the, the production increase with the c 7 generation for any additional markets we

targeted, which meant that we gave a real listen to those market yesterday and listened to customers to the walk and humble, so i didn't list i like line and we try to iron out all these little issues with the c 7 most things like that. whether you feel the aluminum shift paddles while at the wheel of a medium size, the m. m. i now features a proper r as 6 model instead of an a 6 fix more de maria humphrey. so we carefully refine the engine. so the torque is available earlier and faster. we improved in issue of importance to customers is designed, and this is the widest are 6 of all, almost 8 centimeters wider than the wheels are even bigger. up to 22 inches. label mindful rocha numbers. something you don't find among the competition. muslim, convicted of nuisance. animal to cities at either one thick setting point for all are a 6 models, the trunk. the current version can fit in between 565 and 1600 ac leases of gear. if that's not enough, there's the optional extra of a trailer hitch, a feature around the quarter of customers,

one for more variability and cargo space. well b m w has made a name for itself in the sport celine segment, already has made the foster state market its own in the course of its 4 generations, the irish 6 of and has become the embodiment of his foot. he has stayed either way . this story is said to continue for at least another generation. here we hadn't come the next generation. of course, we'll be offering customers in our essex, but they couldn't, among people, couldn't. you can see how the cars have evolved over time. you bought the fight a bigger problem. there's a growing degree of hybridization with smith, and their 2 customers will have something to look forward to get of you can follow up if you could point good. following the era of souped up fossil fuel cargo carriers, the day is coming for electric estates. an r s addition of the each on

a 6 avant concept is likely to appear. but whether it becomes as legendary as the r s models of the c 5 to see a generations remains to be seen. if you want more red, check out our youtube channel. if you want regular features about new cars and car culture and about mobility around the world rave can make you very happy. i vintage classics and future tech or just some of the exciting content waiting for you. subscribe to us at youtube slash dw read, and you'll always be up to speed that way that with that when that when did i have to miss talked to physics and then just so you know,
