Providing performance from a whole new perspective the R8 is pure theatre – with an effortless folding roof and an exhilarating V10 soundtrack
AUDI R8 SPYDER
In many ways, the Audi R8 Spyder is a distinctly old-school supercar, powered, as it is, by a naturally aspirated 5.2-litre V10 engine.
But there’s nothing old-fashioned about the overall package, because the Spyder is dripping with modern technology.
PERFORMANCE WITH A DIFFERENCE
The Audi R8 V10 AWD features a 540PS 5.2-litre naturally aspirated V10 engine with an all-wheel drive powertrain and R8 AWD sports suspension to deliver R8 performance from a different perspective.
The R8 V10 AWD features Alcantara and leather R8 Sports seats as standard and unique AWD styling in the form of body-colour sideblades.
GLOSS BLACK STYLING
Single frame radiator grille with honeycomb design in gloss black and with one-piece trim frame. Front spoiler lip, large air inlets in gloss black and at the rear, diffuser insert and air outlets in gloss black.
THE HISTORY
The Audi R8 can trace its roots back to the Le Mans quattro of 2003, a concept unveiled to celebrate three successive wins at the Le Mans 24 Hours race. Launched as a coupe in 2006, the R8 shared its platform with the Lamborghini Gallardo and offered a choice of engines: a 4.2-litre V8 or a 5.2-litre V10. The Spyder version arrived in 2009, following a high-profile premiere in the Iron Man 2 movie.
