Recently, foreign media reported that Audi officially confirmed that it will launch the final version of the model before its R8 model is officially converted to an electric vehicle, or re-enable the name of "R8 GT", and it is possible to cancel the quattro four-wheel drive system to reduce the weight of the car.
Previously, Audi officials confirmed that the V10 R8 will be the last model of the system, which is expected to be officially discontinued in 2023, and the successor model is not yet clear, it may be plug-in hybrid, but it is more likely to be pure electric.
In any case, this supercar, which is widely known for the movie "Iron Man", is finally coming to an end in the face of increasingly stringent emission regulations.
Perhaps to leave more memories for future generations, or perhaps to commemorate the supercar, Audi recently decided to launch the ultimate model of the R8.
According to relevant news, the ultimate version of the R8 may draw design inspiration from the R8 GT4 car, and has a track-based setting, with stronger power, lighter weight and better aerodynamics than the regular version.

In addition, the head of the Audi RS department said in an interview with foreign media: "We also have some secret technology that can improve the performance of this V10 by another level, just like the current rear-drive R8, we will bring more driving pleasure to the R8." ”
Then it can be speculated that this unique R8 is bound to be sold in limited quantities, and the price is bound to be much higher than the ordinary version, after all, it represents "no singing", and can even be said to shoulder the brand of the times.
