Design
Audi's design philosophy aims for perfection down to the finest detail. A question mark hangs over every contour until it has been optimized. The road from the first sketch to the final dream machine is strewn with several thousand ideas sorted and filtered by the Audi designers. Only when a car's uncompromising contours and coherent language of form speak for themselves – do we then consider the job done. The Audi R8 goes beyond even these rigorous demands and defines a new milestone in the four rings' design history.
Technology
There are no compromises when it comes to the finest sports car engineering. Technical precision and performance must be pushed to the limits – and beyond. From the days of Auto Union to the present, Audi engineers have continued to push back the boundaries in motorsport. The result is a sports car with an unmistakable design and a champion’s DNA. With the new Audi R8, our developers and designers have built a car that epitomises Audi's quest for perfection.
Performance
From Audi comes the all-new R8. Race inspired and derived from the Le Mans dominating R8 machine. With it’s mid-engine design and high-revving 4.2 liter V8 with FSI® Direct Injection technology, the new R8 is the ultimate execution of Audi.
