Default First Test: 2010 Audi R8 V10

First Test: 2010 Audi R8 V10

We've already driven the 2010 Audi R8 V10, but we did not get a chance to test the car until now. Don Sherman spent the day with an R8 and his testing equipment and recorded a 0-60 mph time of 3.8 seconds.What's the difference in the V-10 engines that power the top Audi and Lamborghini's crown prince? As it turns out, not much. Both share the same basic components and architecture: a 90-degree V-angle, DOHC 4-valves per cylinder top end, mostly aluminum construction. The forged-steel crankshaft and connecting rods and forged aluminum pistons providing a 12.5:1 compression ratio are also shared by both sports cars.
