Audi R10, a hybrid supercar Audi brand

Probably in the automotive world there are two words that we would imagine never read together: and hybrid supercar. They are completely opposites but it seems that the development of technology will allow this to happen in the next draft of Audi, the Audi R10.

Among the new projects of the Audi signature (renew their high-end sedans, expand its range of SUVs and SUV ...) and his next target seems to be developing a hybrid supercar that would be available only to those who can acquire one of the cars faster worldwide.

That is the intention Audi aims to bring together in this Audi R10 (tentative name), a car that exceeds Characteristics of Audi R8 and take an old project basis, the Audi F12 eSport only focusing the vehicle in a more traditional use , out of competitive sport. Despite this, vehicle development would take place in the sports division of Audi, Audi Quattro GmbH.

The initial proposal involves a diesel V8 engine mounted on the rear wheels, complete with two additional electric motors each character located on the front wheels of the vehicle. The aim is to achieve a power of between 700 and 1000 hp, power from which the company intends to compete with the McLaren P1, principal leader in this segment today and others like the Porsche 918 Spyder.

In any case, we must keep our feet on the ground because there is no official confirmation from Audi, not even to show a prototype of the vehicle (which would give us a rough idea of the design). What does seem clear is that unite the word hybrid supercar can be much more realistic in the immediate short term ... but then players like Cristiano Ronaldo are the only ones who can afford a vehicle with these features at a price certainly higher than 10-year annual salary of many workers.
