The Car Guide rating 80%(view ratings)
The new Audi R8 Coupé and Roadster have undergone a slight, very discrete facelift. The R8 Roadster remains faithful to the principle of the very well-insulated thick canvas top. Thanks to greater use of carbon fibre and aluminum, these cars are noticeably lighter. In 2014, the R8 V10 plus Coupé now comes factory standard with a 5.2L V10 engine. Its 550 horsepower is 25 more than the previous version.
