Audi R8 Goes Diesel

The Audi firm will introduce the world's first ever diesel-engined super car in late 2009 with its new 4.2-litre V8 TDI unit. The diesel engine will pump out more than 350bhp and 800Nm of torque.
In both the six-speed manual or six-speed R tronic transmissions, the R8 will be capable of going from 0-60mph in 5 seconds.
The diesel engine is the final unit to be added to the R8, after the V10 model arrives in '08.
