The Audi of the USA has decided to say goodbye to the R8, a model that has been on the market for 17 years, in a video that shows several generations of the sports car from the German brand, which will no longer be produced at the end of 2023.

For this farewell, Audi North America asked its fans to contribute to the creation of a tribute video, and the result is “Audi R8: The Last Lap”, which shows some of the R8 models, starting with the first generation produced in 2006 and equipped with a 4.2-liter V8 engine with 420 horsepower.

In addition, the video also features the first generation of the R8 GT (2012) equipped with a 5.2-liter V10 engine capable of delivering 560 horsepower.

Finally, two current versions of the Audi sports car: the R8 Performance quattro and the latest GT RWD, with rear-wheel drive. Both are equipped with a 5.2-liter V10 engine with 610 horsepower.

With this tribute, Audi has found a way to bid farewell to a model that has become an icon of the brand, which has not yet confirmed whether the R8 sports car will have a successor. If confirmed, it is more than likely to be a 100% electric model, as from 2033, all models produced by the Ingolstadt brand will be 100% electric.
