Press lightly on the brake pedal, hold the steering wheel firmly, feeling the sound of the engine.Then check out the road ahead of you, select the drive mode (D), press the accelerator pedal and wait half a second.After that, it's chaos.In less than a second, you will find yourself being pushed back into the seat as the car hit front as a fighter plane. The acceleration is so intense that you will feel everything around is being forwarded fast. In 3.2 seconds crossing the speed of 100 kph, with the engine available to give. So far your brain begins to process what your eyes see, the car touches 200kph. A car faster than the speed of thought? Certainly not. However, the R8 V10 Plus is definitely the most powerful car faster production Audi has ever made. We drove to a place in line with the airfield Hosur near Bangalore.

Exterior

  

The design is such that from all angles, looks like it is made for racing. And why not? R8 V10 Plus shares 50% of its parts with the machine racing R8 LMS media, including the V10 engine and Audi Space Frame (ASF) -the structure of high strength aluminum in which all panels are integrated so that also they perform a function of load bearing. The benefits are exceptional rigidity, high accident protection, better handling and low weight. blades and two small sides of the car black boxes behind the doors, are held in the shadow carbon brightness. These, along with the trademark single-frame radiator grille, low aerodynamic roof, headlights and alloy wheels 19-inch LED, provide an unmistakable appearance motorsports.

Interior

The cabin is luxurious, sporty, functional, very inspired racing. The steering wheel is a mini-computer and controls most needed-such as engine start-stop driving dynamics, gear changes, exhaust notes can be operated with your thumbs. (In a car so fast, you obviously do not have time to look around for controls.) It is an expensive vehicle, so refined materials, precise workmanship and innovative technologies are a fact. There are only two seats, made in fine nappa leather with prominent side bolsters lateral support, so even when tight curves are taken back remains attached to the seat. While the seat is powered up and down function for the sliding you have to settle for a traditional, hand lever.

 The virtual cabin, which is configurable by the user, is essentially a 31.24 cm screen a high-resolution screen sets. It seems straight out of a video game. Because it is a performance car-centered, such information is obtained as temperatures torque, power, oil and tires, and even lap times on a racetrack. If that is not advanced enough, the R8 V10 Plus also shows the strength G the driver experiences as she corners, acceleration and braking! While in a vehicle such as this the only music you want to hear is the tire or engine sound, Audi has also given a sound system Bang & Olufsen for mere mortals. For added convenience, a deluxe automatic air conditioning with sun sensor.

Engine

Under his body-mind, not under the hood, is the V10 high-revving 5.2-liter that produces a maximum power of 610bhp and a torque of 560 nm at 6,500 rpm. The maximum speed is an 'illegal' 330kph. Because the motor position near the rear wheels, excellent traction is obtained.

Among other technologies, it called a "cylinder-on-demand ', by which five of the ten cylinders under partial load the car is turned off. For better fuel efficiency-Audi claims that fuel consumption is up to 13% lower than in the mode that uses the previous model inertia, start-stop system and dual fuel injection. Audi has not given its exact fuel-efficiency figure, but we believe it would be in the range of 10kpl under conditions of "normal" driving.

Drivetrain

The speed change is lightning fast. It puts the famous S tronic gearbox, whose turn-by-wire-system in this transmission modes are engaged / changed through electronic controls with no mechanical connection. You can also manually change gears using the shift paddles behind the steering wheel.The mechanism quattro all-wheel drive ensures roadholding is impeccable. The quattro system continuously analyzes tire grip on various types of diseases, such as gravel road, water or ice and automatically distributes power to all four wheels to where it is needed.

Safety

This powerful car has to be safe too. So you can get eight airbags, ceramic brakes, electronic stability control (ESC), an indicator of loss of tire pressure and more.

Verdict

For Rs 2.55 crore ex-showroom, Maharashra, the R8 V10 Plus is a smart price. Performance that is close to Ferrari 488 GTB and Lamborghini Huracan, but both are much more expensive. And while the Porsche 911 could have reached cult status, it does not fit exactly with the R8 V10 Plus in performance and / or exclusivity. Finally, because it is an Audi, the R8 V10 Plus does enjoy the kind of after-sales support your competitors do not. All one has to do is find ways to drive. There are few.
