Solr has a flat index, so you can't really have a list of relations with multiple values (e.g. a relation with both a name and a value, like your attributes).

For the articles, you can provide the IDs of related articles in a multi-valued field, then do a separate lookup for these either (a) in your database (b) in another solr core.

For the attributes, if you have a fixed list of attributes you can join these to cars and read each attribute into its own field. If you do not have a fixed list of attributes, you'll also have to resort to a separate core, doing essentially the reverse of what you would do for articles; do a lookup in the attributes core then lookup the specific cars from your cars core.
