The new GT variant of the R8 seems to have just started delivery as more and more of these cars are appearing on the website lately.
This one has appeared in Warsaw, Poland, and has been painted in classic white. If you're wondering what makes the Audi R8 V10 GT RWD special, keep reading...
Twelve years after the premiere of the first Audi R8 GT, Audi Sport GmbH is launching the second edition of this exclusive super sports car: the new Audi R8 Coupe V10 GT RWD. The 5.2-liter, naturally aspirated V10 engine's output has been increased to 602 horsepower, making it the most powerful rear-wheel drive unit in the brand's history. A new 7-speed dual-clutch transmission enables faster shifts, and the new Torque Rear driving mode allows drivers to choose their own level of ESC support, enabling controlled and precise oversteering. The seven-stage torque rear can be adjusted using the control knob on the steering wheel. The new R8 GT is limited to 333 units worldwide. New and exclusive exterior and interior features pay homage to the first generation of the R8 GT. These include, for example, sequential numbering, special light alloy wheels, and an interior combination of black and red.
Compared to the R8 V10 Performance RWD with 562 horsepower, which forms the basis for the second edition of the R8 GT, Audi Sport GmbH is increasing the performance of the special model to bring it up to the same level as the quattro model. Specifically, this means: 602 horsepower from 10 cylinders, 5.2 liters of displacement, and 413 lb-ft of torque. As a result, the new R8 GT accelerates to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.4 seconds, reaches the 200 km/h (124 mph) mark in just 10.1 seconds, and achieves a top track speed of up to 320 km/h (199 mph).
Another significant difference: a new 7-speed dual-clutch transmission with even faster shift times. Thanks to an altered gear ratio and the associated higher speed, the new gearbox allows for even more impressive acceleration in all gears. Additionally, there is an exclusive design feature only for the R8 GT: the intake manifold is painted in black.
