Audi unleashed its monstrous new R8 Diesel concept at the Detroit Motor Show. This is the world’s first supercar that runs on Diesel!
I use the words unleashed and monstrous because the car is truly an unbelievable strong vehicle. Only those two words can describe its capabilities and characteristics.
The Audi R8 Diesel is a melange of the diesel-powered R10 TDI and the R8 supercar.
Under a sleek, clear glass cover, it hides a powerful V12 6.0-litre twin-turbo engine, which can push the car from 0 to 100 kph in only 4.2 seconds! It’s top speed reaches 300 kph.
Its structure helps with the speed because it mainly combines lightweight aluminium panelling and an aluminium space frame, which helps keep weight to a minimum.
