Audi R8, said the next e-tron electric car raced at the Nurburgring in a huge 8 minutes, 9 seconds or five seconds slower than the conventional 424-hp V8 R8 coupe. The R8 e-tron has released its first lap of the driver Marcus Winkelhock driving during a recent series of tests on the legendary circuit in Germany.
The lap time is fixed in the conventional tire is described by Audi as the world record for a production car with an electric motor.
It's better than the 9 Minute, a second set of brands with its unique concept of Peugeot EX1 in April. A tour of Toyota in a race car with an electric motor called EV TMG radical P001 posted a time of 7 minutes, 47 seconds.
Audi R8 also said that the e-tron from 0 to 62 mph in 4.7 seconds - only one tenth of a second slower than conventional gasoline-brother. It is a sign that the new car, the Audi's advice will cost more than $ 250,000 is not responsible for the overall performance is lacking in sales will begin later this year.
Put on its first public exhibition as a production motor show in Paris in September, for the e-tron R8 shares its appearance with the standard R8. However, changes to change both rear electric motors and lithium-ion battery and a series of light, and ample space for the suspension of the head of Dick Audi development, Michael spent as other is described.
"Do not speak so were fooled. Construction, gearbox and chassis completely changed. It is essentially a completely new car from scratch," says Dick.
The objective of the e-tron R8, Audi put in limited production later this year, a pair of mid-rear mounted synchronous electric motors, traction of each wheel, the development of a total of 376 horses and 605 lb.-ft. of torque, the energy they Book 1213 of lithium-ion batteries mounted on the center tunnel and provide direct drive to the rear wheels. In normal driving, the powertrain is said to offer a complete range of over 124 miles.
The current for the batteries of the R8 e-tron carbon ceramic braking system and plug-in-shop recovered.
To compensate for the weight of the battery, R8 new three-dimensional structure as regards the aluminum and carbon fibers and new components of the composite plastic in the suspension. Gets a redesigned interior carbon fiber seats with backs, among other changes. In the standard version, the R8 e-tron states, which weighs 485 pounds more than the R8 V8 to 3924 pounds.
The R8 e-tron is part of a series of new performance-based electric car Tesla Roadster was inspired and began to market over the next 12 months in office. Its closest rival is the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, which brings together a quartet of electric motors - one for each wheel - and argues that the developing 525 hp and 649 lb.-ft. of torque.
