Audi's V-10-powered supercar bows out with the return of the GT edition.
The brand with the four rings in its logo on Monday unveiled the R8 V10 GT RWD, and confirmed the car as the swan song for the V-10. It starts sales in 2023 and in Europe will carry a price tag of 225,000 euros . Pricing for the U.S. hasn't been announced.
The R8's 7-speed dual-clutch automatic also has recalibrated gear ratios to deliver faster shifts, while a new Torque Rear mode allows the driver to adjust the intervention of the electronic stability control. There are seven stages of Torque Rear to choose from, with each higher setting making the car want to oversteer more. Power sliding around corners should be a breeze.
An aerodynamics pack sets apart the R8 V10 GT RWD from other R8 variants. The pack includes a new front splitter, flics, side skirt covers, attachments on the sides of the rear fascia, a rear diffuser, and a rear wing with swan-neck struts. The intake manifold is also painted black.
