Description

The most spectacular racing car and until now most powerful Audi ever is powered by a twin turbo charged twelve cylinder TDI engine with 5.5 litre cylinder capacity. The powerful power-unit offers over 650 horsepower and a torque in excess of 1100 Newton metres. The V-12 runs extremely smoothly and requires an injector pressure of around 2000 bar. Development of the diesel sports cars at Audi was looked upon as a great technical challenge partly because of the high torque and associated high power developed by the engine. Compared to its predecessor the R8 therefore, not only the engine and gearbox are new. Audi has already written Motor Sport history with this excellent racing car. Never before has a diesel powered vehicle won such an overwhelming victory in one of the hardest races in the world, the Le-Mans 24 hour race.
