Dedicated to the world of heavy machinery and engineering excellence, Wheels & Steel delivers factual entertainment ranging from colossal construction equipment and mega machines to high-stakes salvage operations and giant logistics challenges.

Autentic now operates a total of nine factual FAST channels including Terra Mater WILD, Adventure Earth, Autentic History, Autentic Travel, SPIEGEL TV Konflikte, Curiosity Now and Wheels & Steel.
