The revised 2019 Audi R8 coupe and convertible will go on sale in Europe in early 2019 with sharper styling, an updated engine and a modified suspension.

For 2019, the R8’s V-10 returns and is again available with two outputs. Audi says the new model’s 10-cylinder is amped up and will deliver “almost identical drive technology” to the R8 LMS GT3; that model is good for 585 horsepower. The current 2018 R8 makes 532, 602 or 610 hp depending on the model.
