The Audi R8 V10 is a performance version of the already immense
V8 powered R8. The engine is a revised version of the 5.2 litre
V10 found in the Lamborghini Gallardo. In the R8 V10 it produces
525 horsepower. The engine R8 V10 is almost identical in construction
to the one in the R8 GT3 race car.
Its displacement is 5,204 cc, at 6,500 rpm it delivers 530 Nm
(390.91 lb-ft) of torque, at 8,000 rpm its power tops out at
525 hp (386 kW). This gives the car a 0-60 mph time of just
under 4 seconds and a 196 mph top speed.
As with all performance Audi's the R8 V10 has subtle yet telling
cosmetic upgrades which distinguish it from the standard model.
For the R8 V10 this means chrome grille strips, exclusive wheels,
new mirror housings, redesigned LED headlights, a revised rear
bumper modified to accept the new exhaust tips, and a redesigned
rear panel underneath the taillights. The interior of the Audi
R8 V10 is almost identical to the V8 powered car except the
for black dial backings and a chrome plated left foot rest.
