Os 5 especiais de homologação mais selvagens nascidos dos ralis

O Peugeot 205 T16 foi construído para competir no Campeonato Mundial de Rally e foi um dos carros mais bem-sucedidos da década de 1980. Com um motor turbo de 1.8 litros e tração nas quatro rodas, o 205 T16 era capaz de acelerar de 0 a 100 km/h em menos de 6 segundos e atingir uma velocidade máxima de mais de 200 km/h. Além de seu desempenho impressionante, o 205 T16 também se destacou por sua aparência agressiva e aerodinâmica.

Audi Quattro

O Audi Quattro revolucionou o mundo do rally quando foi introduzido em 1980. Foi o primeiro carro de rally a utilizar tração nas quatro rodas de forma eficaz, o que lhe conferiu uma vantagem significativa em relação aos concorrentes. Com seu motor turbo de 2.1 litros e potência de mais de 300 cavalos, o Quattro era capaz de acelerar de 0 a 100 km/h em menos de 5 segundos. Sua dominância no WRC foi tão impressionante que levou a mudanças nas regras do esporte para limitar o uso da tração nas quatro rodas.

In the early 1980s, the French manufacturer set out to dominate the highly contested Group B of the WRC, and for that, their engineers partnered with the bodywork company Heuliez to develop what is still the wildest production car to bear the Peugeot insignia.

Porsche 959

Like Ford, Porsche wanted to add a WRC title to its impressive trophy collection, so in the early 1980s, they began developing a rally car based on the 911. Led by talented engineer Helmuth Bott, the Group B project started with several prototypes and a highly sophisticated 4WD system nicknamed PSK (Porsche-Steuer Kupplung).

These models not only defined eras in their respective times, but also solidified the legacy of their brands as manufacturers of some of the most desirable and technically impressive cars in the world.
