A very powerful Audi R8 is presented
Audi has declassified an extreme modification of the rear-wheel drive R8 supercar, which will be released on the market under the designation R8 GT RWD. The circulation of this modification will be limited to 333 copies
In this case, the five-liter V10 engine was boosted to 625 horsepower. A 7-speed robotic gearbox is used here, with changed gear ratios and a new electronic control unit installed. As a result, the Audi R8 GT RWD will reach the first 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds – this is 0.4 seconds less than the performance of the basic rear-wheel drive version, but the all-wheel drive Audi R8 Quattro with the same 620-horsepower engine will do this in 3.1 seconds.
However, the main feature of this R8 is the Drift mode “Torque Rear Drive”. Electronics in this mode helps the driver move in a controlled skid by controlling the traction on the rear wheels.
