With the new Audi R8 set to be unveiled at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show, the company has succeeded in keeping this model under warps… until now.
This single image has surfaced on the Internet via Instagram. It is unclear if this is the new model, or simply a replica, but judging by the new front grille, headlights and intakes, it seems it could be Audi’s new supercar.
The new R8 will be based on the same platform as the Lamborghini Huracán (watch our video review here). It will also offer the same 5,2-litre, V10 engine. However, the interesting question is whether Audi would opt for an improved version of the current 4,2-litre, V8 naturally-aspirated engine as the entry-level model, or rather the newer 4,0-litre, V8 turbocharged engine as currently implemented in a few S and RS models.
Needless to say, more details will be revealed soon.
