Audi R8 V10 plus

The fastest and most dynamic Audi road-car ever, the all-new Audi R8 represents the second generation of the brand’s high-end sport car, whose original model debuted in 2006. Succeeding major technical features of the original series, such as mid-engine layout, ultra-light-weight body with ASF (Audi Space Frame), naturally-aspirated V10 engine, and quattro full-time 4WD system, the R8 has evolved dramatically in all respects. The new body, designed with ASF technology, features, in addition to aluminum as employed extensively in the previous R8, carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) in the major part of the occupant cell and has further reduced weight while improving rigidity. The revised 5.2 FSI engine develops as much power as 449kW (610PS) and enables the new Audi R8 (V10 plus) to accelerate from stand-still to 100km/h in just 3.2 seconds and up to the highest-ever maximum speed of 330km/h.
