ABOUT THE AUDI R8

The Audi R8 is a mid-engine exotic sports car that competes at the top of the performance two-seater segment. Aimed squarely at enthusiast buyers who want a daily-usable supercar with German engineering polish, the R8 pairs a naturally aspirated V10 with available all-wheel drive. It is a low-volume, high-price machine, and its safety profile reflects that niche reality.
