The new Audi R8 in Devon and Somerset with Silver Street Automotive
The slowest car we've ever built
Inspired by the most successful Le Mans racing car of all time, the Audi R8 has been created from 70 years of motorsport innovation.
The new Audi R8 combines the time-honoured hallmarks of the best of the classic sports cars with futuristic construction, transmission and suspension technologies. All this is underpinned by the steadfast reassurance of the quattro four-wheel-drive system.
Design
The Audi single-frame grille adapted to the proportions of a sports car, the colour-contrasting sideblades (available optionally in Oxygen Silver or Carbon Sigma), the LED rear lights and daytime running lights… this is a car designed to take your breath away.
Performance
The mid-mounted, high revving V8 4.2 FSI engine delivers 0-62mph in 4.6 seconds and a top speed of 187mph. quattro® permanent four-wheel-drive distributes power when and where you need it. And the breathtaking design is recognisable the moment it appears in a rear view mirror.
The new R8 Spyder
The Spyder remains true to the core design cues of the Coupe including the mid-engine concept, quattro
and Audi Space Frame to make sure the stunning looks are complemented by superb handling and driving performance.
Exterior features
Building on the V10 Coupe styling, the Spyder has some unique features that make it one of the most
distinctive cars on the road. The Spyder has no sideblades, but the windscreen frame's aluminium
finish complements the finish on the air vents in the carbon fibre panel that disguises the hood when folded.
With the soft-top roof closed, the lines remain sleek and coupe-like thanks to fins incorporated within the
fully automatic, acoustic hood.
