Audi RS6 Splits In Half And The Driver LIVES!!!!

Amazingly lucky driver and lucky he wasn't carrying any passengers....

Thats Safety...lol

This is old news from several year ago.

In any car, you would be lucky to even make it out alive in a situation like this. You ramble about biased facts. How about the driver, how did it start, etc? It doesn't take a lot of skill to understand words.

ZOMg this picture is so old,
howmany more times are ppl going to post this.
welcome to the internet.

Al Gore just sent it to us ;)

This is why Audi is superior to any other company.

amazinlyStupid - you don't believe that.

Ultimate Driving Machine > VW

an accident like this would have wrecked any car or truck out ther beyond driving this guy had angels on his side that day thats all i got to say

you REALLY think a BMW in the same wreck yould not have been dented?

Really??

BMW's aren't superman you know. hell i got rear ended by M3 once, trust me they do more that dent

this is not a good indicator of Audi's safety, what about if there are children or other passengers in the rare seats, they gonna be shredded. I love Audi's cars but this is really scarring me and count as a negative safety point .. cheers

agreed, any passenager would've died right at the spot looking at the pictures. And how did he end up like this?

I don't think anybody should be worried about Audi safety. The A3, A4 and Q7 have all received the highest possible rating by the IIHS.

I kid you not this is 40 year old news.

Audi's are very safe. I've told some of you guys the story of me watching an A4 speeding through one yellow-red light and then braking heavily at the next light not being able to brake from at least 120km/hr and hitting a Matrix. In result the A4's rear end actually lifted and the Matrix rear end was completely trashed. The drunken couple who came out of the A4 were walking and had no apparent injuries. I was amazed. I was also amazed that the guy also took a swing at a paramedic lol.

Looks like the tree cut the car in half, the Audi must have been travelling at one hell of a speed ?
The driver was lucky, you can see his seat is about the only part of the car not damaged.

The only thing you can learn from this is wear your seatbelt !!

what a superwagon!!!!

I think some people said (when the pics first came out) that this was more of a (don't drive too fast) demonstration and the car was cut up on purpose. But I am not sure if that was just a rumor or actually true.

"gotta love German car safety"

what an ass kisser!

WOW

About like 8 years ago, my mother crashed the family's 1997 BMW 740iL in a double crash. She came out of the car unharmed, but the car was a total wreck. We sold it.

Enough with these station wagons.

Want to survive a head-on collision? BUY A SUBURBAN. There is no substitute.

you heared this, you heared that, but you know nothing. you dont know anything about cars, except the things your father told you about lexus, you know even less about engineering, hell you dont even understand the relation between price and sales.

the cheap metal you are talking about is called aluminium, ever heared about it? they dont use it cause its cheap but to cut the weight in some places where it hasnt any negativ effects on the strength of the structure.

according to this situation: you proved it again, you know NOTHING about this situation.

this guy went sideways into a tree with >80mph, every car would look the same if not even worse. but of course your lexus blablabla...

MT is full of baseless information. Don't mind him as he is our household troll around these areas. He's the 2008 Award winner for "Troll of the Year".

Only on this site would a flame-war start over a picture of a crashed car. If I posted a picture of a totaled Volvo do we immediately determine Volvo's aren't safe?

Like this picture is a testament to automotive safety engineering performed on all Audi's or any German auto manufacturer for that matter...Grow up, we don't even know the full dynamics of the crash & how another vehicle would have performed under the same conditions.

A breath of fresh air. This website has gone down markedly since I "left" in June.

Where'd you go?

If you think any car is safe then your are getting drunk with water too... Look at this A3 which was hitting the tree at 100 km/h (that is 62 mph) - picture #9. Unfortunately nobody got alive from the car..

Split in half and people think Audi's are well built, doesn't look like it to me!
