Audi R8 supercar

Audi R8 (Audi R8) is a super sports car produced by Audi in 2006. Its top speed is 330km/h, and its main competitors include Ferrari F430, Lamborghini Gallardo, Nissan GT-R, Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG and Porsche 911. This car won the honors of Japanese Consumers' Car of the Year and North America's Car of the Year. As Audi's first mass-produced mid-engine super sports car, the Audi R8 integrates Audi's experience, technology and design that breaks through traditional concepts in multiple sports events. The Audi R8 shares the Lamborghini Gallardo development platform and uses the ASF high-rigidity body structure. The innovative combination of magnesium-aluminum alloy and the closed tubular hollow structure are directly combined as the main load-bearing structure of the car body. Audi abandoned the damping oil of the traditional shock absorber on the R8 and replaced it with an active electromagnetic induction suspension system, a special oil whose viscosity changes with the electromagnetic field.

Audi R8 is equipped with full LED headlights. This ultra-high-performance lamp body can produce bright white light similar to sunlight; extreme LED daytime running lights are like narrow belts that separate the headlights from the lower side. Makes the vehicle particularly eye-catching; Carbon Sigma carbon fiber side trim not only achieves the purpose of reducing the weight of the vehicle, but also produces a visual effect of strong color contrast on the side of the vehicle; the active electric spoiler tail will reach 100km/h at a speed of 100km/h It automatically stretches when the vehicle speed drops to 35km/h, and automatically retracts when the vehicle speed drops to 35km/h; the Bang&Olufsen audio system achieves surround sound reproduction through 12 speakers, and the total output power reaches 465W.

The Audi R8 was originally equipped with a 4.2-liter V8 engine, and later released a 5.2-liter V10 engine version in December 2008. This version of the R8 uses a 5.2-liter V10 engine based on the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4. The V10 R8 test was equipped with the same 5.0-liter V10 twin-turbocharged engine as the RS6, but it burned out due to the problem of engine cooling. In the end, the R8 of the V10 engine could only use the naturally aspirated working method. 

The Audi R8 was once used as a track safety car in the German touring car race.

R8 is famous for its fine craftsmanship and price and is also a model for sports cars, but the lack of power of the V8 engine is also known to the world. Now the V10 with Linbao is obviously more powerful, which has also led to the decline of the 911 series in the general market. , But from a professional point of view, the overall performance of the 91 is still better than that of the R8. One step closer to a sports car is not to say that it can be done. Although the R8 can outperform the 911 in the general market and price, but this does not mean that the 911 The nearly perfect body structure that has been honed over so many years and the seamless electronic configuration of the car can not beat the R8. So why do you need to choose the brand and country to buy a car (except for GT-R, it seems that the host likes German cars, so I will not introduce and recommend GT-R)
