Range topping Audi R8 premiered at Le Mans

19 Jun 2014

Audi gave the 99 unit limited R8 LMX - the fastest version of its flagship supercar yet - its first public showing in Le Mans, France.



Armed with a 5.2-litre V10 lump which generates 562 horsepower and 540Nm of torque, the limited-run Audi R8 LMX is the most potent version of the R8 nameplate yet. Interestingly the highlight of the supercar, more than its performance credentials, is the standard fitted laser headlights - the first in the world.

Le Mans driver, Tom Kristensen, who recently finished a respectable second at the recently concluded 24 Hours of Le Mans, takes us through the highlights of the car, the laser headlamps and more importantly - allows us to hear the symphony of ten cylinders.
