The Audi A3 Sportback, SEAT Leon, ISUZU D-Max, Kia Sorento and Land Rover Defender achieve the maximum five stars. The Honda e settles for four stars and the Hyundai i10 gets three.Both the new Audi A3 Sportback and SEAT Leon sit on the same MQB-II platform as last year’s Golf VIII but now feature a centre airbag to improve far-side impact protection. When it comes to safety, the VW group siblings are in no way inferior to their famous cousin, but it is the Leon that, thanks to more compatible front-end design, has the upper hand with a very creditable 92 percent for Adult Occupant Protection.

With 29 drivers and 14 teams in the 2023 season, the DTM once again had a first-class line-up. In this tough environment, the private team ABT Sportsline once again secured results in the top field at the finale at Hockenheim with third place for Ricardo Feller in the Audi R8 LMS in the drivers standings and position three in the team standings. With two victories, five podium positions and two pole positions, the team from Kempten was the most successful of three Audi customer teams in the traditional racing series. Feller is the only driver in the field, apart from the new champion Thomas Preining from Porsche, to have scored points in each of the 16 races. Ricardo Feller had also kept the title decision open until the finale.
Five Audi R8 LMS cars from three customer teams are taking part in the 2023 DTM season. Two cars each from ABT Sportsline and the Tresor Orange1 team, as well as one entry from Liqui Moly Team Engstler. The season opener took place with two exciting races at the Motorsport Arena Oschersleben.
