The completely redesigned, next - generation Audi R8 is expected to debut sometime next year as a 2016 model, with a new architecture shared with the Lamborghini Huracan and a set of new powertrains that may include TDI diesel and
e-tron electric options.
Due to its
electric batteries being fitted under the boot floor, the
e-tron does without the seven - seat
option available on other Q7 models.
