Audi Urban Concept (2011) CAR review

Audi Urban Concept (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Georg Kacher, 28 October 2011 07:00

The Audi Urban Concept is a frantic fusion of home-made soapbox racer, bubble car, quad bike, go-kart and electric runabout, creating something all-new to tempt environmentally-conscious urbanites. CAR was granted rare access to road test (okay, scoot around a closed-off car park) this plug-in 21st century quadricycle. And guess what? We've found out that Audi will soon okay the Urban Concept for low-volume ...

Audi R8 GT Spyder (2011) CAR review

Audi R8 GT Spyder (2011) CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Georg Kacher (photography by Greg Pajo), 20 October 2011 14:30

This is Audi’s R8 GT Spyder, and you can think of it in one of two ways: it’s a drop-top version of the R8 GT, itself a lighter and more powerful version of the already sublime R8 V10 supercar; or it’s a Lamborghini Gallardo Performante, sanitised (slightly) by the men and women from Ingolstadt. Read on for our first drive ...

Audi R8 LMS (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 26 April 2011 11:05

This is the race version of Audi's R8 V10 and R8 GT supercars, the R8 LMS. Audi scooped a load of silverware in 2009 with these cars and added a class win in the Nurburging 24hrs covered in Phoenix Racing livery. For the 2010 season the Audi R8 LMS was been updated with tweaks to the suspension, gearbox and cooling system. How does ...

Audi R8 GT (2010) CAR review

Audi R8 GT (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Georg Kacher, 12 November 2010 13:00

This is the Audi R8 GT, a lighter, more powerful (and thus faster) version of Ingolstadt’s finest supercar. Think of the GT as a Superleggera version of the R8, a car to take on the likes of the GT3 RS, M3 GTS, and of course, the real Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera. So is the Audi R8 GT essentially a German version ...

Audi R8 V10 Spyder (2010) CAR review

Audi R8 V10 Spyder (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

It's a fair reflection of the burgeoning Audi range that the new Audi R8 V10 Spyder you see here is comfortably over £100k. This maximum R8 is the most expensive regular series production Audi ever, at £112,500, so it'd better be good. But the omens are good. We love the R8. Really, really love it. Who'd have thought that Audi ...

Audi R8 5.2 V10 FSI (2009) CAR review

Audi R8 5.2 V10 FSI (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Meet the £100k Audi: the R8 V10. Yes, it looks suspiciously similar to the £77k V8-powered version, but spotters can tell it apart thanks to those new 19-inch rims, thicker side blades, revised strakes on the front and rear bumpers and even more in-your-face LED headlights.So, £20k more and the R8 5.2 V10 FSI still looks the same…Yes, even inside ...

Audi R8 V12 TDI Concept (2008) driven CAR review

Audi R8 V12 TDI Concept (2008) driven CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Georg Kacher, 10 April 2008 10:43

Does the world need the Audi R8 V12 TDI, a supercar powered by diesel? We love the regular Audi R8. It’s our 2007 performance car of the year, with sublime steering that belies its Ingolstadt roots, and one of the best gearboxes around. That high-revving 4.2-litre V8 sounds wonderful and the quattro system juggles all-weather security with rear bias for ...

Audi R8 (2007) CAR review

Audi R8 (2007) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Phil Mcnamara, 18 January 2007 10:49

A mid-engined supercar from Audi – how extraordinary... Make no mistake, this is a seminal motoring moment. The R8 is Audi’s first mid-engined supercar, designed to prove that Ingolstadt can mix it with pedigree sporting brands like BMW and Porsche. The launch version – running a V8 – costs £77k, a chunky price tag which illustrates Audi’s three-decade transformation into ...
