New Audi R8
Audi R8 V8
from £85,100
Even before launch, the R8 entered motoring folklore as a car of immense beauty and power. The press and public alike praised it and created a real mystique about this mainly hand-built, 4.2 FSI powered quattro sports car. No-one is in any doubt what’s behind them when an R8 is in their rear view mirrors.
Introducing the R8 GT - Take a look
Limited production, maximum performance
Sharing its DNA with the R8 V10 Coupe and taking inspiration from the R8 LMS race car, the R8 GT is a lighter, higher performance version of this celebrated Audi Supercar.
The R8 GT will be limited to a production of just 333 units worldwide with only 33 making their way to the UK. Each R8 GT will have it's production number inscribed around the gear lever.
More through less
Based on the already impressive R8 V10 Coupe Audi's engineers have reduced its weight by 100kg and refined the powerful 5.2 FSI quattro to develop an additional 35PS.
The end result is a total of 560PS, a 0-62mph time of just 3.6 seconds and a top speed of 199mph.
Vorsprung durch Technik.
Inspired by the track
Instantly recognisable, the Audi R8 GT features a host of aerodynamic and visual enhancements, including a fixed rear spoiler and fins on the front bumper trimmed in matt carbon fibre to enhance downforce and air flow.
Add to this a bespoke rear diffuser, larger round exhausts, wheels bespoke to the GT and matt carbon fibre sideblades and there is no mistaking the R8 GT and its performance credentials.
Strikingly different
If anticipation builds when you see the exterior of an R8 GT you will be sure of is intentions when you get inside. Bucket seats trimmed in Alcantara and GT design steering wheel, gear lever, inlays and white instrument dials confirm that this car is built with the racing circuit in mind.
