AC Schnitzer TENSION Street Version

AC Schnitzer Concept Cars:

A Tradition of Technology Transfer.

Since the outset, AC Schnitzer

has followed the philosophy of

systematic transfer of techno-

logy and design from motorsport

to the road. At the heart of this

philosophy was the success

story of the Schnitzer brothers‘

motorsport team in the 60s.

These prototypes however prove

for the ﬁ rst time where the

technological limits lie in the

present state of development of

series models.

AC Schnitzer continues this tradi-

tion of Concept Cars in impres-

sive fashion with the TENSION

based on the M6. At its launch

at the IAA 2005, this unique car

received resounding applause

from the trade press and public

alike.

But without the development of

a whole series of Concept Cars

as the connecting link between

motorsport and the road, this

technology transfer would be

virtually impossible in practice.

From motorsport to the road –

AC Schnitzer pursues this philosophy with

regular Concept Cars. In this way they show

the limits of what is technically feasible for

each generation of series models.

Born in motorsport,

cultivated for the road.

The success of the TENSION

was so overwhelming and the

concrete demand for this one-off

development so great that the

AC Schnitzer engineers decided

to develop an AC Schnitzer

TENSION Street Version for the

entire 6-series (630i - M6) in

various reﬁ nement levels.

technology platform for everyday

suitability and implemented

reliability at series level.

For reliability is as essential to

the AC Schnitzer engineers as

driving pleasure. And because

the number of potential conver-

sions is limited to 50 examples

worldwide, the „AC Schnitzer

TENSION Street Version“ will

remain a particularly exclusive

phenomenon.

In a hard development and

testing phase of just 11 months,

they converted the original

Exclusivity is guaranteed:

There will only be a maximum of 50

AC Schnitzer TENSION Street Versions

worldwide.

When aerodynamics assume

breathtaking form.

In technological development,

particular attention is paid to

aerodynamics and body design.

The Street Version of the TENSION,

in comparison with the standard

6-series, has a stylish new bon-

net with large chrome-edged air

outlet and a modiﬁ ed front skirt.

takes the cold air ﬂ ow for the

engine and the front brakes into

a new dimension together with

the downforce on the front of

the car.

Air outlet openings on both front

wings, which with their three

chrome ribs and integral ﬂ ashers

resemble a shark‘s jaw, support

optimum venting of the entire

engine bay.

This gives the vehicle not only a

more striking and ﬂ atter appea-

rance, but at high speeds also

Refined aerodynamic concept in every detail:

generous air outlets on the wings and bonnet

guarantee optimum temperatures across the

entire vehicle front. The AC Schnitzer sports

mirrors support the aerodynamic body design.

Homogenous overall concept

of aerodynamics, suspension

and wheels.

The striking side skirts with air

ducts to cool the rear brakes,

the rear skirt with its fully

stainless steel twin exhaust

system and chromed tailpipes

in Sports Trim Design, a Carbon

Diffuser and totally restyled boot

lid complete the body concept.

The extravagant two-colour

paintwork in Alpine White and

Anthracite Metallic available on

request emphasises the indivi-

dual nature of the vehicle.

The high technical demands of

the aerodynamic conversion are

continued in the wheel and tyre

combination. The AC Schnitzer

Type V forged alloys in bi-color

ﬁ nish, with their partly polished,

partly painted surface, perfectly

complement the vehicle concept

both aesthetically and techno-

logically. The sports suspension

with its 25 - 30mm lowering,

special antiroll bars and strut

brace made of aluminium, com-

plete the overall sporting image.

At the Japan Motorshow 2006, the

AC Schnitzer Tension Street Version

enjoyed its eagerly awaited premiere.

AC Schnitzer forged alloys in bi-color

finish are fitted in size 9.0 J x 20“ on the

front and 10.0 J x 20“ on the rear. The

fully stainless steel twin exhaust system is

integrated in the rear skirt with carbon

diffuser.
