The Audi R8 is the sporty flagship model of the Audi range. This powerful sports car is now more dynamic than ever, thanks to the S tronic transmission and new features on the exterior, interior, and brakes. All models are now equipped with full LED headlights as standard.
The taillights mark the premiere of another dynamic innovation: dynamic turn signals. The powerful new Audi R8 V10 plus with 404 kW (550 hp) sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds. Thanks to Audi's ultra-lightweight construction, the top model with a manual gearbox has an unladen weight of just 1,570 kilograms.
The updated Audi R8 range includes two body variants – Coupé and Spyder – and three engines. Standard sprint times for both models with the new seven-speed S tronic transmission have been improved by 0.3 seconds, while fuel consumption has dropped by as much as 0.9 liters per 100 km.
