First Drive in the New Audi R8 V10 Plus

Thursday, November 12th, 2015

We've been waiting for this one, the new 610hp Audi R8 V10 Plus, and here it is! YouTuber, Shmee150, was invited for an opportunity to have a very quick drive behind the wheel, and take a look around it during a launch event hosted from Hotel du Castellet in the South of France.

There's no denying it's a fabulous machine, brilliant to drive, a great V10 soundtrack, but is it too limited on everyday usability and practicality? I look forward to a full opportunity to put the new car through its paces in due course, but for now, some quick observations and driving impressions from the short time with the car.
