Audi R8 Review
Audi R8 is a two-door coupe that exudes the elegance of a Formula One racer car. The stylish super-car flaunts muscular exteriors and luxurious interiors. Superior ride and handling is provided by the vehicle, through its finely tuned suspension system. The interiors of the coupe are spacious for two people, with a small cargo shelf provided in the rear portion. With a powerful petrol engine, the car accelerates rapidly and promises to deliver commendable top speed.

Exterior

The sporty exteriors of Audi R8 contribute to its commanding presence on the move. The single- framed radiator and bi-xenon headlamps add to the bold looks of the car. The distinctly designed car flaunts narrow taillights, large air dams, four tail pipes and retractable spoiler in the rear end. Audi R8 surely offers a comfortable ride to its occupants.

Engine

Under the hood of Audi R8 lies a powerful 4.2 L V8 FSI petrol engine, which pumps out a power of 420 bhp @ 7800 rpm and a maximum torque of 317 Nm @ 4500-6000 rpm. The engine is linked to 6 speed manual gearbox. The car accelerates from rest to 100 km/h in just 4.4 seconds and promises to deliver a top speed of 301 km/h.

Interiors

The capacious interiors of Audi R8 are richly appointed, exuding the elegance and sophistication of the cabin of a motor sports car. It features highly comfortable seats, upholstered in finest Nappa or Alacantra leather. The trendy instrument panel flaunts a premium music system with stereo effect and 12 loudspeakers. It also gets navigation system and parking-sensor system. The coupe has a cargo shelf, which provides space for storing small bags.

Ride And Handling

Audi R8 has been equipped with magnetic ride adaptive damper system, with shock absorbers. The front and rear suspension systems work in coordination, to absorb the bumps on potholed Indian roads. A special fluid is used in the shock absorbers that further add to the smoothness while driving on critical road conditions.

Safety

Apart from the Antilock Braking System (ABS), electronic stability control and traction control, the car comes with seat-mounted and knee-protecting airbags, front seatbelt pretensioners, driver and passenger head restraint whiplash protection system, remote anti-theft alarm system and tyre pressure monitor system.

Variants, Price and Color

Audi R8 is priced at Rs 1.17 Crore (approx) and has only one variant - R8 4.2 L FSI. It is available in four vibrant colors, including Metallic Jet Blue, Metallic Ice Silver, Pearl Effect Daytona Grey and Pearl Effect Phantom Black.

Verdict

The Audi R8 is perhaps one of the best things that Audi has produced since the original Quattro. After the arrival of the Audi R8, suddenly the market seems to be abuzz with one more option for people who were seeking to buy the Porsche 911. Undoubtedly one of the best everyday supercars, this is what you want to get yourself if you’re looking for great driving dynamics, speed and want to let people turn around and ask “who’s that in the swanky car?”
