Audi R8- the car shares with the Lamborghini Gallardo not only the platform, but also the power units - engines and gearboxes. But the body structure of the R8 is made in accordance with the Audi Space Frame concept, which involves the extensive use of aluminum and magnesium. The coupe body weighs only 210 kg.
The weight distribution of the car is close to ideal. The weight ratio between the front and rear axle is 44:56. Active diffusers, a flat underbody and a spoiler that rises automatically at speeds above 100 km/h create a constant downforce. At the same time, all versions of the Audi R8 are equipped with a proprietary quattro permanent all-wheel drive system.
One of two petrol engines is installed in the car. The initial motor is a V-shaped “eight” with a working volume of 4.2 liters. Maximum power of 430 hp the unit produces at 7,900 rpm, and the peak torque of 430 Nm is in the range of 4,500-6,000 rpm. With Graziano's single-clutch R Tronic robotic gearbox, the coupe accelerates to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds. The maximum speed is 302 km/h.
The most powerful modification of the model is based on a 5.2-liter V10 with direct injection. Maximum 525 hp are reached at around 8,000 rpm. Peak torque of 530 Nm is available at 6,500 rpm. With the “robot” up to a hundred kilometers per hour, the Audi R8 with a ten-cylinder engine accelerates in just 3.9 seconds. "Maximum speed" - 316 km / h.
Serial production of the model is established in the German city of Neckarsulm. In the summer of 2012, Audi introduced a restyled version of the R8, which received boosted engines, as well as a new seven-speed robotic box. In addition to the closed coupe, the company also offers a convertible - Audi R8 Spyder.
