No other production car with the four rings is as powerful, fast or distinctive. The high-performance R8 sports car is designed for maximum dynamics in all technical areas. In the sports car world, the Audi R8 is right among the leaders in terms of its driving performance.

Compared with the R8 V10 performance RWD with 570 PS2 emissions in g/km: - NEDC; 341 - 339 (548.8 – 545.6 g/mi) (WLTP)" class="up-can-clean">2, which forms the basis for the second edition of the R8 GT, Audi Sport GmbH is increasing the performance of the special model in order to bring it up to the same level as the quattro model. Specifically, this means: 620 PS from 10 cylinders, 5.2 liters of displacement, and 565 Nm, available from 6,400 until 7.000 rpm (max.: 8,700 rpm). As a result, the new R8 GT2 emissions in g/km: - NEDC; 341 - 339 (548.8 – 545.6 g/mi) (WLTP)" class="up-can-clean">2 accelerates to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.4 seconds, reaches the 200 km/h (124 mph) mark in just 10.1 seconds, and reaches a top speed of up to 320 km/h (199 mph).

THE ENGINE

The R8's V-10 engine is offered in two strengths, both potent enough to shake your eardrums with their otherworldly exhalations. 

 The R8's seven-speed dual-clutch automatic isn't the smoothest gearbox. It occasionally downshifts too abruptly, causing neck-snapping acceleration followed by an immediate upshift. The base R8 comes standard with an adaptive suspension, while Performance models are fitted with a more aggressive fixed-damper setup. Both soak up bumps admirably and provide a comfortable ride that you could tolerate without fatigue on long trips. The R8's supple nature comes with a drawback, however: In full-attack mode, it doesn't handle corners as confidently as its rivals, feeling more unsettled than you'd expect a supercar to be. The standard steering setup is direct and relays information from the road to the driver's hands with sufficient feel.
