The All-New Audi R8 Spyder V10 Plus

Audi has revealed their new convertible sports car with a difference. The all-new Audi R8 Spyder V10 Plus is Audi’s fastest convertible car to ever be manufactured.

The new model offers its driver 602bhp worth of power, a drastic improvement of performance of 70bhp. As a result of its improvements, the all-new R8 Spyder V10 Plus convertible now provides 560Nm of torque, enabling it to power the driver from 0-62mph in just 3.3 seconds.

The new R8 Spyder was built with high performance and style in mind and its specification is evidence of that. An impressive top-of-the-range standard specification includes performance mode, R8 bucket seats, ceramic brake system and carbon components.

Thanks to new carbon-fibre components and other newly developed lightweight materials, the new R8 Spyder V10 Plus convertible is 25kg lighter than the standard R8 model. The folding roof is primarily created using aluminium and magnesium and finished off with high quality cloth. It takes just 20 seconds to open and close the soft top and can be done at speeds of up to 31mph.

A new carbon black splitter, gloss black grille and carbon lip spoiler gives a dominant stance on any roads. Lightweight 19-inch aluminium wheels in five twin-spoke design are also available as standard.

The new Audi R8 Spyder V10 Plus is now available to order with first deliveries expected late summer.
