Story by Mark Stevenson:

 

 

Audi isn’t content showing up in Switzerland with just one vehicle. They’ll also be arriving in supercar style with their second-generation Audi R8 V10.

 

2016 Audi R8

 

Sitting atop a new “multimaterial Audi Space Frame with high proportions of aluminum and carbon-fibre reinforced plastic,” the next generation supercar is 50 kg (110.2 lbs) lighter than the outgoing model with more equipment and power. The 5.2-litre V10-powered R8 is also available in two different tunes. The normal one (if you can call it that) will blurt out 540 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of twisting power. The top-flight R8 V10 plus bumps those numbers up to 610 horsepower and 413 lb-ft. R8 V8 specs will be released at a later date.

A new 7-speed S tronic transmission and quattro all-wheel drive system makes sure all that power makes it to the tarmac translated to forward motion, resulting in a 0-100 km/h sprint time of 3.2 seconds onto its top speed of 330 km/h.

Adding to the V10 model is the new R8 e-tron with the battery capacity to drive for 450 uninterrupted kilometres. A 170 kW electric motor gives the e-tron 339 lb-ft of torque, good for a respectable 3.9 second sprint to 100 km/h.

The 2016 Audi R8 V10 will make its first public debut at the 2015 Geneva International Motor Show on March 3rd.

I was looking for a reliable bank that could offer competitive rates on products and services, and Charter Oak exceeded my expectations. Their customer service has consistently been top-notch. Even when I have had difficulty understanding something or needed help with setting up my account, they were there for me every step of the way. Charter Oak has become an integral part of my finances and I'm so glad I chose them!

I switched to charter oak login recently and it has been an absolute blessing. It's a secure and easy way to access my online banking account whenever I want, without having to wait ages for the page to load. They also have great customer service, which is always available if needed. Overall, it's one of the best online banking experiences I've had!
