2010 Audi R8 5.2 packs plenty of power Telegraph-Journal

29.10.09

It's about the Audi R8 5.2.

Patently, Audi thought the standard R8's 4.2-litre engine was a good start. A 420 horsepower V8 screamer, it gets the aluminum coupe rolling in a very serious furore. It's more than powerful enough for anyone who values their driver's licence -- but apparently, some buyers wanted even more sauciness.

Audi answered their call with a newly-available 5.2-litre V10. This engine dials horsepower up to a supercar-luminary 525, and spews even more gut-wrenching sound effects from the tailpipes. Redline is bumped 500 revs beyond that of the V8, to a raging 8,500.

Yes folks -- this machine is a very big deal. Everything Audi's learned about going fast, endearing races, and building stunning-looking machinery is here in masses.

The R8 V10 gives away its identity with several visual upgrades. There's a 'V10' badge on each fender, the quad-briar exhaust tips are replaced by two big ovals, and the vented surfaces on both bumpers are opened up. The R8's trademark side-blades are widened in the name of increased airflow into the engine niche, too.
