A first-generation Audi R8 equipped with a V10 engine and a manual transmission has just been recorded rolling in Ho Chi Minh City.

The car has a gray exterior of the gun, standing out in the street thanks to its sporty design and the typical sound of a large engine block.

In the early stages of its launch, most of the Audi R8 was distributed with a V8 engine, while the version using a V10 was less popular. The car in Vietnam is a coupe, equipped with a 4.2-liter naturally aspirated V10 FSI engine. This engine produces a maximum capacity of 518 horsepower and a maximum torque of 530 Nm.

Notably, the vehicle comes with an S Tronic 6-speed manual transmission. While most R8 models on the market prioritize automatic gearboxes for convenience, the manual transmission is more oriented towards pure driving feel, allowing the rider to directly control the engine power at each gear level.

With this equipment, the Audi R8 V10 is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds before reaching a maximum speed of 317 km/h. These are familiar parameters for many supercars of the same period, affirming the position of the Audi R8 in the luxury sports car segment.

According to the announcement, the average fuel consumption of the vehicle is about 21.38 liters/100 km in urban conditions and 13.84 liters/100 km when operating on the road. Although this number is higher than that of regular cars, it truly reflects the characteristics of high-performance cars using large-capacity engines.

The appearance of the Audi R8 V10 with a manual transmission in Vietnam continues to show the appeal of the German supercar in the domestic market. In addition to the newer versions available, the first-generation R8 model still retains its own value thanks to its classic design, powerful engine sound and impressive performance.
