Supersport comeback
Audi R8: new edition with Lamborghini hybrid?
Audi has always used synergies with Lamborghini for the R8. This now makes a new edition conceivable.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen The R8 could be about to make a comeback at Audi. As the British magazine "Autocar" reports, the Ingolstadt-based company wants to relaunch its super sports car in 2027 based on the Lamborghini Temerario. Its current 920 hp V8-based plug-in hybrid drive is also to be adopted. Equipped in this way, the third generation of the R8 would compete against rivals such as the Mercedes-AMG GT and Porsche 911.
The collaboration with the Volkswagen Group brand Lamborghini would be nothing new for Audi. The first R8, which was launched in 2006, was based on the Lamborghini Gallardo, while its successor, launched in 2015, was based on the Gallardo successor Huracan. The latter is now being replaced by the Temerario.
In total, Audi sold almost 45,000 units of the R8 offered as a coupé and roadster over the entire production period until spring 2024.
