The mid-engine sports car R8 by Audi represents the top level of performance. But with ABT Power, the ABT Sportsline vehicle tuners are still able to draw additional 20 horsepower out of the 5.2-liter V10. Now, the super sports car is even a more attractively priced competitor to the extreme powerful R8 V10 plus. After optimizing the motor management, the ABT Audi R8 based on the standard model now also puts forward 610 HP (464 kW) auf.
| Power | Acceleration 0 to 100 km/h | Top Speed |
|---|---|---|
| 630 HP | 3,2 Sec | 330 km/h |
For customers who think that even an Audi R8 V10 plus does not look athletic enough, we do offer a wide range of accessories which can further sharpen the appearance of the supercar. Front and rear skirts move the ABT R8 even closer to the road visually. The matching front lip and the front, side and rear blades refine the aerodynamics of the German sports car even further. The wheel arch vents in racing design complete the package functionally.
Naturally, the wheels will have to match the sporty look of the body. Therefore we do offer the forged 19 inch ABT HIGH PERFORMANCE ER-F wheels in the color “black magic” and the new 20 inch ABT HIGH PERFORMANCE GR forged wheels in “black magic”. The Audi R8 already comes with an ample 610 hp/449 kW as a standard. Still we are able to achieve 20 horsepower more from the supercar engine without jeopardizing its durability. This was made possible by optimizing airflow and using a special, TÜV-tested stainless steel exhaust system with carbon double tailpipe trims. An open carbon rear panel optimizes the temperature in the engine compartment while visually adding to the rear view.
The STREET body kit gives the Audi R8 a clearly more distinctive appearance with a new front skirt with visible carbon fiber panels. The large air intakes with wire mesh on the sides and significantly more openings, beads and edges produce a more aggressive, but always stylish look. The rear also receives a new skirt, which is much more distinctive than the production version. The visible carbon fiber double tailpipe trims and the frames around the air intakes stand out in particular.
Still not powerful enough? The RACE body kit, which is based on the STREET version, has a little more fireworks to offer. The front is adorned with a front lip with side blades in visible carbon fiber. The high tech material from racing is also used on the sides – for the new ABT side blades and parts of the additional wheelhouse ventilations. The rear blades are perfect match for the existing diffuser on the rear, completing the race car look. Optionally, the visible carbon fiber parts on the STREET and RACE body kits can also be purchased in matte or with a color glaze for a surcharge. Glossy black ABT mirror covers are also available as an add-on. The look is completed with the forged 19 inch ABT HIGH PERFORMANCE ER-F rims in “black magic”. The ABT HIGH PERFORMANCE GR rims in 20 inch and also in “black magic” and in a forged version are another alternative.
But following the motto “power is nothing without control”, the suspension can also be adapted. We have managed to improve the already excellent roadholding even further. This was made possible by lowering the center of gravity of the vehicle using coilover suspension springs and precisely adapted sports stabilizers on front and rear axle as well as a weight reduction by 50 kilograms. The most important place in a sportscar will always be the space behind the wheel. Even before the driver has taken their seat, the ABT R8 greets them with exclusive ABT entrance lighting. When seated, feet rest on high quality floor mats with the ABT logo and the gaze is drawn to the two finishing upgrades to the interior: the elegant ABT Individual leather interior combined with the sporty look of the ABT Individual carbon interior with the fine composite material visibly installed. The visual upgrade is just as important to us as improving performance.
And inside your car, you don’t have to do without an exclusive and sporty styling made by ABT either. You will find an exclusiv and individuel interior for your R8.
