Detailed item info Model OverviewThere is much to love about the 2011 Audi R8. In addition to the 4. 2 and 5. 2 coupes. Audi has added a Spyder model. equipped with the 5. 2-liter V10. The car's canvas top takes just 19 seconds to open or close and can be operated at speeds up to 31 mph. Motive power for the entire R8 lineup comes from either a 4. 2-liter V8 making 420 hp and 317 lb-feet of torque. or a 5. 2-liter V10 producing 525 hp and 391 ft-lb. Both units are mid-mounted just behind the passenger cabin and benefit from FSI direct injection. Power is put to the pavement through a standard 6-speed manual transmission or through Audi's R-tronic 6-speed sequential automatic. Quattro permanent all-wheel drive is standard. with rear-biased torqued distribution. Audi claims 12 mpg city and 19 mpg highway and 0 to 60 mph in 4. 4 seconds from the V8. while the V10 is rated at the same fuel economy but it scoots to 60 mph in just 3. 7 seconds. The R8 is built on an all-aluminum Space Frame technology. which offers a lightweight. stiff. compliant chassis. Aluminum double-wishbone front and rear suspension is paired with Audi Magnetic Ride. a system that offers push-button control over a magnetically charged fluid whose viscosity continuously adapts to driving dynamics.
