Audi Shooting Brake at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show
The Audi Shooting Brake (also known as the Audi TT
Shooting Brake) is a
concept car developed by the
German manufacturer
Audi
and officially unveiled at the
2005
Tokyo Motor Show. It is a study of a sporty two-door compact
hatchback.
The concept vehicle is powered by a 3.2-litre
VR6
engine developing a maximum output of 250 bhp at 6,200 rpm and
the torque that peaks at 350 kg/m(236 lb/ft) between 2,500 and
3,000 rpm. The engine, already featured in some of the Audi's
production models such as the second generation
A3 and the
TT sports car, is strong enough to accelerate the Shooting
Brake from 0 to 100 km/h(62 mph) in just 6 seconds and make it
reach the electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h(155 mph).
The vehicle also features Audi's well-known permanent
four wheel drive system
quattro.
The exterior appearance is dominated by a massive front
grille, characteristic to the newest Audi models, as well as
clear-glass headlights with the new
LED
technology and 19-inch double-spoke wheels originating from
quattro GmbH. The interior puts the emphasis on sporty design
and is dominated by materials like aluminium and leather. A
notable interior feature is an evolutionary version of
navigation system with
touch screen monitor and character recognition.
On January 24, 2007, it became clear that Audi decided not to
take the car through to full-scale production[1].
