Audi R8 V10 Spyder Driving Experiences

Arriving a year after the R8 V10, the Audi R8 V10 Spyder had been long rumoured and much anticipated as early as 2006 when it finally went into production in 2010, following a showcase at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2009.

The R8 V10 Spyder shares much in common with its coupe model, including the equipping of a 5.2 litre V10 engine, offering 517 bhp.

But one of the main differences between the R8 V10 and the R8 V10 Spyder is that the chassis has extra support weighting it even more to its rear wheel drive, offering fantastic handling and grip on the road of track.

When it comes to speed, it’s more than a match for its older brother, with a top speed of 194 mph, and the capability to blister from 0 - 60 mph in 4 seconds.

You may be wondering why the R8 V10 Spyder was much speculated about for as long as it was? Step forward the makers of the Iron Man 2 movie released in 2010, when candid shots of the supercar being used for a key scene in the sequel were leaked to the press in August 2008, almost 18 months before it became commercially available.

The R8 V10 Spyder received another upgrade in 2012, this time to include brighter and bolder LED lamps for the front and rear of the car, as well as being equipped with an S Tronic dual-clutch automatic gearbox.
