About the Mercedes 190E 2.5-16 EVO II W201 #6 Team AMG Mercedes K. Rosberg DTM 1992 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Mercedes 190E EVO II reproduces Keke Rosberg's #6 Team AMG DTM entry from 1992. A former Formula 1 world champion competing in touring cars, and the diecast captures the EVO II's wing and splitter package with the same graphic care as its 1991 stablemates.

By 1992 several former grand prix drivers had moved into the DTM, and Rosberg's presence on the grid added a layer of star power to an already technically fierce touring car series.

Consistent Tooling Across the EVO II Range

This casting shares its body tooling with other Minichamps EVO II liveries, so the wide box arches, roof spoiler, and rear wing all carry the same crisp panel definition seen across the range. The #6 livery's graphics are printed with clean registration along the doors and hood, avoiding the smudged edges that lower-tier decals often show on detailed period sponsor artwork. The model's ride height and wheel proportions match the homologated EVO II spec, and doors typically open to a simplified cockpit with roll cage detail. Diecast construction gives the piece real weight in hand, appropriate for a 1:18 touring car with this much visual presence on a shelf.

A Grand Prix Champion in Touring Cars

Rosberg's F1 title came a decade before this DTM season, and his move into touring car racing reflects a broader pattern of the era, where established drivers found competitive, well-funded second careers in Germany's premier touring car championship. For a collector, a Rosberg entry adds a driver-focused angle to a DTM shelf that might otherwise be organized purely by manufacturer or season. Paired with his other period liveries or displayed alongside the 1991 and 1990 EVO cars, this model helps trace how driver rosters shifted as the DTM's aerodynamic arms race reached its peak before the series changed direction with the Class 1 regulations later in the decade.
