Expert opinion and recommendation

The Audi R8 V8 R-Tronic, while an enticing option for those seeking a supercar experience, comes with some notable caveats. The R-Tronic gearbox, though robust, is often criticized for its clumsy electronics and jerky, slow shifts, which can detract from the driving experience. Despite this, owners and enthusiasts often praise the car for its comfort, practicality, and reliability. However, the semi-automatic gearbox does not live up to the standards set by the manual transmission version, which is generally preferred for its smoother and more engaging drive. If you are considering the R-Tronic, be prepared for a learning curve to get the best out of it, but also be aware of potential issues like the Mag-ride suspension leaks and valve coke buildup, which can affect performance and maintenance costs.

Pricing details and changes

In India, the Audi R8 V8 R-Tronic was priced around 1,70,00,000 ex-showroom when it was available. However, since this model is no longer in production, prices for used models can vary widely depending on the condition, mileage, and year of the vehicle. On-road prices, including taxes and other costs, would have been significantly higher, likely exceeding 2 crores. For a used model, you might find prices ranging from 1.2 crores to 1.8 crores, depending on the specifics. Its crucial to factor in additional costs for maintenance and potential repairs, especially for the Mag-ride suspension and other known issues.

Mileage

Fuel efficiency information

The Audi R8 V8 R-Tronic is not known for its fuel efficiency, given its powerful 4.2-litre V8 engine. In India, you can expect mileage to be around 5-7 kml in city driving and slightly better on the highway, though real-world figures can vary based on driving conditions and style. Running costs will be high due to the cars performance-oriented nature and the need for premium fuel. If mileage and running costs are a significant concern, this might not be the most economical choice.
