MASTER ITS CURVES,
AND YOU HAVE YOUR PRIORITIES STRAIGHT.
The most difficult roads are the ones that lead to
greatness. While engineering and perfecting the
new ATS, we went to the toughest, most demanding
automotive track on the planet: Germany’s legendary
Nürburgring Nordschleife.
It is the ultimate challenge in motorsport, the
benchmark by which performance cars are measured.
Over its 70-plus turns in 20.8 kilometers, it is hungry
to consume the entire engine, all of the brakes and
chew through the tires. It stresses every component
to its limit – and sometimes beyond –
and deservedly earns the nickname “Green Hell.”
By enduring this grueling punishment, every aspect
of the agile ATS was tuned and retuned to achieve the
best possible performance-oriented configuration.
We set out to challenge the status quo. What we
accomplished is a world-class premium sport sedan
with breathtaking performance and handling.
