Audi R8 Concept

The R8 does borrow some of its engineering, from the Lamborghini Gallardo, however. The R8 is an all-wheel-drive car powered by a 420-horsepower Audi V-8 mounted behind its two seats. It's a "halo car," a product that's more about bolstering brand image than making big profits.
Its engine is designed to rev high - up to 8,250 rpm, Audi says - and offers a zero-to-sixty time of 4.6 seconds with a top speed of 185 miles per hour.
With all these fires and crashes of Audi’s super car, the R8, it’s curious to know how interested would be those rich guys to buy the new one, which will be much more powerful. Evo Magazine got an interview with Audi and found out more about it. Apparently the biggest upgrade will be on the engine side, which is now a V10 that sports 520-bhp inspired from Audi’s RS4 V8 engine.
