BRAVO to the Audi R8 on its latest accolade. The R8 coupe has been named the 2016 World Performance Car in the World Car Awards that took place at the New York Auto Show. This marks the fourth award for the Audi R8. This makes it the most successful model in the World of Car Award history. The Audi R8 won over the international jury of over 70 leading automotive journalists making it a champion on the road as well as the racetrack.
Dietmar Voggenreiter, Board Member for Sales and Marketing at AUDI AG said, “With its distinctive design, its driving dynamics, and its closeness to racing, the R8 is one of the strongest calling cards for the four rings and is the flagship car from Audi Sport. The first generation of the R8 paved our way toward becoming a premium brand and raised the aura of Audi to a new level. The new R8 will continue this success story and further accelerate the growth strategy of Audi Sport.”
The R8 Coupe has the best performance than any other Audi model, reaching 0 to 100 mph in only 3.2 seconds and reaching a maximum speed of 330 km/hour. A high-revving mid-engine, consistent lightweight construction concept and extremely dynamic suspension with Quattro drive in addition to fully variable torque vectoring all make the R8 Coupé a truly exceptional car.
