Audi R8 V10 Plus vs Lamborghini Aventador S – DragRace

This video features an insane fast 2018 Audi R8 V10 Plus with ASG sport exhaust, racing against other supercars, like the new Lamborghini Aventador S

Audi R8 comes as a Coupe or Spyder convertible. 

Two versions of the 5.2-liter V10 engine are offered, the standard one making 540 horsepower and 398 pound-feet of torque, while the V10 Plus makes 610 hp and 413 lb-ft. Both engines are mated to an S Tronic 7-speed dual clutch transmission. Audi invented the dual-clutch automatic manual transmission in its early racecars, and remains the leader in the technology. 

The R8 can be so mild a granny could drive it (in Comfort mode), but in Dynamic Mode it flies, from zero to sixty in 3.5 seconds. The V10 Plus takes just 3.2 seconds, using Launch Control to keep the tires from spinning. 

It rates 17 miles per gallon EPA Combined, with the engine using deactivation down to five cylinders, and port injection, which efficiently manages the throttle mixture. 

It hasn’t been crash tested because the NHTSA and IIHS don’t destroy expensive low-volume cars, but R8 offers race heritage and a monocoque chassis, not to mention extra airbags in the doors and roof.

Lamborghini Aventador S

With the addition of rear-wheel steering, adaptive damping and a customizable ‘Ego’ mode, the Lamborghini Aventador S has become more useable on a daily basis. But the 6.5-liter V12 has been tuned to deliver more power, now up to 730hp, to all 4 wheels via a single clutch automated manual transmission. The optional Bicolore Sportivo Alcantara package equips Alcantara clad seats and dash in two-tone color combinations of your choosing. Safety features include carbon ceramic brakes, ABS, and drive-mode linked stability control.

Interior

The Aventador S is the evolution of the original Aventador, but the fighter-jet inspired interior design has evolved little for 2018. Fighter jet style toggle switches are responsible for the majority of the important functions, and the flip up red cover that houses the start button is the right kind of theater. An assortment of leathers are available for covering all surfaces, but there’s also options like carbon fiber cladding and inlays, aluminum trim pieces, and leaving sections of the carbon fiber chassis exposed. Mounted just abode the start button housing, the drive mode select buttons have been tweaked for the S to now feature an ‘Ego’ button – a customizable individual mode.

Ahead of the driver, a leather clad sports steering wheel is paired with metal gear shift paddles, the combination mounted in front of a revised TFT LCD multifunction display with completely redesigned graphics.
