If you want to take a look at the best in German engineering, head to the Auto Expo. A drool worthy list of automobiles are on display. Foremost among them is the super-car Audi R8 V10 Plus.
Launched by the formidable skipper Virat Kohli who was on hand to face the flash bulbs. We must say though, the Audi R8 V10 Plus proved to be a worthy competitor when it came to grabbing the spotlight!
The super-car is worthy of worship! Easy on the eyes, the Audi R8 V10 Plus is a dream to drive. And here’s why.

Displacement cc & Layout: 5204 / V10
Transmission: 7-speed Stronic Power (PS @ rpm): 610 @ 8250

What’s inside?
If the outside is anything to go by, the inside is equally provocative with a sporty cabin like feel and high gloss interiors. Aluminium inserts on AC controls, steering spokes and window controls live up to the German reputation of a great finish.
Customized leather upholstery and colours are a valid option for buyers. The two seater is equipped with electrical adjustability and lumbar support. Advanced comfort functions like hill hold assist, cruise control feature along with a Bang and Olufsen sound system but the most practical functions are the safety features which include anti-theft wheel bolts, full size airbags and an anti-theft alarm with tow-away protection.
