► 2016 Audi R8 V10 plus - 610 hp - Good Exhaust Sound

“The new Audi R8 will deliver exactly what customers expect from a high-performance sports car,” says Prof. Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg, Audi Board Member for Technical Development. “This car brings our concentrated motorsport competence from the racetrack to the road.” The completely revised vehicle concept of the Audi sports car assures this. It features an even more powerful naturally aspirated V10 engine – mounted according to the mid-engine principle – that fascinates with its unique sound. The high-torque engine, a new type of lightweight design and an improved quattro drive system with fully accessible and variable torque control make the Audi R8 even more dynamic – off the racetrack as well.

The new Audi R8 is the brand’s sporty top model. The top version, the Audi R8 V10 plus has a power output of 610 hp, a top speed of 330 km/h (205.1 mph) and a 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) acceleration time of 3.2 seconds.
