AUDI R8 CHINA EDITION

We totally agree with winning through quantity, but it's a small
quantity. We've spent more time creating the rare Audi R8 China
Edition, and hope it glow in your hands. There are only 80 such cars.
It's not important if it's rare, the important thing is that if you
own it.With exclusive colors, LED headlight, ultra-light high strength
carbon fiber, 193 wheel hubs in 5 twin-spoke "Y"
design and the spoiler in carbon matt, people will love it at the
first sight and be eager to drive it.

Exclusive Colors
We have to admit that jealousy is a kind of deep admiration. The Audi
R8 China Edition has two exclusive colors, Malibu blue body with
Suzuka grey sideblades or Suzuka body with Malibu blue sideblades. The
two different combinations form the unique style of the Audi R8 China
Edition. The exclusive colors give out special radiance no matter in
the daytime or at the night, showing the extraordinary features of the
supercar.

Ultra-light and high strength carbon fiber is the top application of
materials engineering in the aerospace field. With stiffness and low
weight, it strengthens the safety, reduces oil consumption and
achieves an efficient driving performance. However, few luxurious cars
use carbon fiber in body and interior extensively due to limitation of
manufacture process and price, except for this car.

The Audi R8 China Edition adopts 193 high-gloss black wheel hubs
in 5 twin-spoke "Y" design which integrates dynamics and
aestheticism. The superb craft and design make the total look full of
the unique technological feel of Audi.

The unique fixed spoiler in carbon matt makes this supercar fancier.
The round tailpipes at both sides fully demonstrate the dynamic style.
When the spoiler in carbon matt rips the airflow and everything
flashes like a blue shadow, it's hard for you to tell which side you
will stand by, admiration or jealousy.

Exclusive Interior
Ultimate luxury is one thing, and being incomparable is another.
Indeed, the luxury here is excessive to most people. Shark skin and
colored stitching, handbrake and steering wheel wrapped in Alcantara,
instrument shield in carbon matt, aluminum gear knob engraved with an
exclusive number...Sorry, we only can reveal so much. However, the
work of masters can't be explained in one sentence.

The design of every detail that people can touch is customized to
highlight the driver's nobleness. As the first Audi production car
with Chinese characters in interior design, the characters"R8
«"and the number are embedded on the aluminum gear
lever knob, and become an iconic status symbol. To respect the
cultural habit of Chinese customers, all numbers with 4 are removed
from the serial numbers 1-99.

To most people, the luxury of the interior is excessive. Shark skin
and colored stitching, handbrake and steering wheel wrapped in
Alcantara, instrument shield in carbon matt, this work of masters
leads to your luxurious enjoyment.

The R8 emblem has been deep into people's mind, and signals the
engaging sportiness. It reveals the blood of nobleness and gene of a
king of the R8 family. The interior with R8 emblems further displays
the unruliness and dynamics, stimulating the driving desire. From the
exquisite interior to the colors, it catches people's eyes as soon as
they see it. The R8 emblems on the dashboard and aluminum door sill
trims further give it a special identifier.

The cockpit of Audi R8 China Edition perfectly shows the inheritance
of the motor sports gene. The sporty steering wheel in Alcantara fits
in to the instrument cluster and the cockpit. The convenient shift
paddle triggers the R tronic transmission instantly, full of limitless
passion. The big and comfortable leather sporty seats can be adjusted
electrically, and the waist support gives the body enough support. In
addition, the seat heating function is also available, giving you a
warm driving experience in winter. The cockpit sourced from a racing
car forms an independent control platform.

Control
Heart beating fast is one thing, and acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h
within 3.9 secs is another. Please pay attention to the following
seconds. A V10 FSI mid-engine in high speed will make you rediscover
heartbeat. Undoubtedly, on the new generation quattro®permanent
all-wheel drive, the hybrid of fuel, hot blood and hormone will roar
with you along the way. This is not a cold driving machine. Its wild
nature has been excited under your call.

Heart beating fast is one thing, and acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h
within 3.9 secs is another thing. With a V10 5.2 FSI mid-engine, the
R8 China Edition has a maximum power output of 386kW and peak torque
of 530Nm. It only takes 3.9 secs to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h.
With the passionate roar, you'll realize its power and heartbeat
again.

The classical quattro® permanent all-wheel drive system is
indispensable in such an ultimate supercar. As the best partner of the
V10 FSI engine, the quattro® permanent all-wheel drive system brings
you unparalleled dynamic driving experience and outstanding safety.

Every supercar fan loves to control speed. This doesn't mean seeking
fast blindly. Experiencing the fun of controlling speed is enjoyment
of a higher level. The R tronic is a manual transmission with
automatic control. It has a special operating rod, and integrates the
fuel efficiency of a traditional manual transmission and the handiness
of an automatic transmission. This means that the driver can drive and
control the speed freely. In addition, the perfect R8 China Edition
can always keep low oil consumption when you experience high-speed
driving.

When most of the production cars use conventional steel, we've adopted
the lighter and firmer material to build the dream car, such as Audi
Space Frame ASF®, CFRP and Al-Mg alloy body. This is a figure that
leads the future, but now you master it as much as you like.
