Company Audi at the auto show in New York has presented a novelty - R8 Spyder, an open version of the flagship car. Let's get acquainted with its impressive design, as well as learn more about its technical equipment and the similarity with the models presented by Italian competitors - Lamborghini.

Impressive novelty

A new car from Audi has already been seen several times before the official presentation at the auto show, so its design did not come as a surprise - it resembles the design of the R8 coupe. According to the developers, the equipment of the novelty is similar to the model R8 LMS, which has already shown its effectiveness, winning the race in Daytona. The novelty has an open top, but if desired, you can also use a fabric roof - even at high speed it is formed in twenty seconds. The details of the design are emphatically futuristic - the appearance of the novelty makes even previous versions in the same lineup old fashioned. For Spyder, a lot of carbon fiber inserts have been used, which only reinforces the impression and guarantees the car an incredibly stylish, ultra-modern look.

Equipment

The car is equipped with an engine with a volume of 5.2 liters and has a capacity of five hundred and forty horsepower. Up to 100 kilometers Spyder will be dispersed for three whole six tenths of a second. In addition, the developers claim that the chassis is fifty percent stiffer than the previous models. About the model Lamborghini V10 Plus, copying the design of the top of the existing at the moment model line, there were no official comments. The only thing that the new director Stephen Winckelman, who used to work with Lamborghini first appeared at the event of the brand, is that he will try to offer Audi fans even more novelties very soon. Well, the premiere at the Auto Show in New York was successful and there is no doubt that the beginning of his career in Audi was successful. Perhaps success will not change him further.
