Detroit Audi R8 Engine Features

Two high-tech engines are available for the Audi R8, now ready to go for Detroit Audi drivers at this Audi dealer in Birmingham. Both reflect the wealth of expertise which helped to fuel Audi's numerous racing triumphs. The V8 and the V10 combine FSI gasoline direct injection with dry sump lubrication and a high-revving concept. Both captivate with their power, their responsiveness and their musical sound. The eight-cylinder unit launches the R8 from 0 to 62 mph in 4.6 seconds en route to a top speed of 188 mph. The V10 is a touch faster, with a time of just 3.9 seconds and a top speed of 196 mph.

Audi R8 Interior Features For Detroit Audi Drivers

The forward-thrust cockpit and the engine compartment behind it are key to the proportions of the R8. Large wheel wells and hungry air inlets visualize its potential, while the upright sideblade structures the flank. LED headlights are standard in ten-cylinder R8 models and available as an option for the eight-cylinder version.

The body of the R8, ready to go for Detroit Audi drivers, is largely hand-built at the craft-scale production shop at the Neckarsulm site. Featuring an aluminum Audi Space Frame (ASF), it tips the scales at just 462.97 lb, ultra-lightweight construction to the extreme. The fully-enclosed diffuser underbody and the rear spoiler that slides out automatically help ensure that the R8 generates downforce at high speeds.

The key element of the interior is the monoposto, a large arc sweeping around the dashboard instruments. The relatively long wheelbase allows for generous interior space. There is space for two golf bags behind the seats, and the luggage compartment under the front hatch offers additional storage capacity. The R8 5.2 FSI quattro comes standard with Fine Nappa leather appointments, a Bang & Olufsen sound system, and the navigation system plus. The optional bucket seats from the Audi exclusive range exude concentrated racing style.
