Volkswagen ID. Buzz GTX Seen Testing on the Nurburgring

It is not very common to witness vans driving on the Nürburgring, but Volkswagen is currently developing the performance-oriented ID. Buzz GTX model there. It is logical for VW to assess the performance of this sporty variant on the renowned track.

This particular Buzz GTX test vehicle, which has been spotted wearing the BSVF410E license plate, appears to be the same as the one captured in previous spy shots (see gallery below). The color and appearance of both vehicles are identical, further hinting that they are one and the same.

Audi RS6 Avant: More Aggressive Model Spotted at the Nurburgring

The Audi RS6 Avant is currently undergoing testing at the Nürburgring in preparation for its latest update. A spy video captures the high-performance wagon in action on the track as well as on the public roads near the circuit.

The updated RS6 Avant showcases a more aggressive design compared to the current model. Notably, the front fenders have been widened, featuring openings at the rear section just ahead of the doors. These openings are likely functional and could contribute to brake cooling or improve the vehicle’s aerodynamics.

Additionally, there are several minor revisions to the front fascia. The bottom opening now extends to the intakes in the corners.

The side sills have also been restyled, displaying a more intricate design.

At the rear, a larger wing is attached to the back of the roof. The rear bumper has been reshaped, while the presence of the oval-shaped exhausts remains.
