Audi R8




The R8 is Audi�s all-new two-seat, mid-engine sports car that incorporates technology from Audi�s Le Mans-winning R8 prototype to build on its racing success for the street. The production version of the Audi R8 sports car made its debut at the Mondial de l�Automobile in Paris in the fall of 2006, with the dramatic design remaining very true to the Le Mans quattro concept car first seen in 2003. The Audi R8 sports car begins with the classic wide, low stance of a mid-engine exotic but the design is dominated by a signature design element, the �Blade� of carbon fiber on each side, behind the door and in front of the rear wheel�that runs from the roof at an angle over the side air intakes to the rocker panel.


Technical Specs
Standard Engine 4.2L V8
Standard Transmission 6 Speed Manual
Cylinders 8
Horsepower @ RPM 420@7800
Torque @ RPM 317@4500 (foot-lbs)


Audi R8 is powered by a 420-horsepower 4.2-liter aluminum V8 with FSI direct fuel injection and quattro all-wheel drive. The power is delivered through either a 6-speed manual or the R tronic sequential manual gearbox that uses the same transmission and clutch but operates the clutch and changes gears automatically.
