Audi also leaked photos of the second generation Audi R8 (2015) before the Geneva Motor Show. And here too we have something to be happy about. No, these are not women's curves, but the curves and assets of the Audi R8. The "cloths" have also fallen from the rear windshield, under which there is a wonderful view of the 5.2-liter V10 engine with stratified cylinder filling (FSI) technology, which will offer 540- and 610-horsepower versions (V10 Plus model ).
The second generation of the Audi R8 it looks similar to the serial version, but you are probably more interested in how it performs "on the run" at 100 km/h. This can be done in 3.5 seconds, while the Plus is a shade faster (3.2 seconds). They reach their maximum at 320 or 330 km/h and despite these extraordinary numbers they are not greedy than the Lakotnik, as the consumption of the Plus edition is only a little over a liter higher than the standard model (11.8 l/100 km vs. 12.4 l/100 km), and there is no significant difference in CO2 emissions either (275 g/km vs. 289 g /km).

They will be slowed down by ceramic brakes and double diffuser in a sandwich between the exhaust pipes, which will take care of the negative pressure and the perfect position of the entire beast.
Carbon skin (front air deflector, exterior mirrors) will complement the hood and roof from CRFP plastics, which puts it in the featherweight or at least welterweight category of supercars. 1555 and 1454 kg, respectively, also means that it is compared to the previous model lost 50 kilograms and is therefore even more agile. And if we move a little further inside. A refreshed driver's license will await the driver there cabin with a 12.3-inch Audi virtual display. And if you don't feel like listening to the engine purring, you can think about it Bang & Olufsen sound system. To scrape up 165,000, or just over 187 euros, you have until the summer, when the second generation is expected to leave Ingolstadt en masse.
