Audi R8 Supercar Selling Cheaper Than A New Toyota Fortuner
Most people who have a budget of around Rs 48 lakh opt for the mighty Toyota Fortuner full-size ladder-on-frame SUV. However, what if we told you that you can buy a supercar which was once priced at Rs 2 crore? We are talking about the car that “Ironman” once used as his commuter — the Audi R8. Yes, today, if you have Rs 48 lakh, you can get your hands on this particular 2014 Audi R8 supercar, which will be 100 times cooler than a standard Fortuner.
For those who may not be aware, the Audi R8 is one of the coolest supercars of its time. And today, you can buy one for less than that of a Toyota Fortuner Legender. This particular Audi R8 which has gone on sale is a 2014 model, which was the pre-facelift model, and has only covered 20,000 km, according to the seller. Click here to check listing.

Now, coming to the condition, this particular Audi R8 looks like it has been very well maintained, and there are no dents or scratches on the front of the vehicle. On the side profile as well, this supercar looks immaculate.
The 18-inch 6-spoke alloy wheels have been finished in gloss black to add to the menacing appearance. It also gets red-painted brake calipers, which highlight the sporty nature of this supercar. It also gets the iconic panel behind the doors, which became the main highlight of the design of this supercar when it was first seen being driven by Ironman.
As for the rear end, it has been given a fixed decklid wing and gets four parking sensors. It looks very beautiful from the rear as well. Overall, the exterior condition of this particular Audi R8 is pristine, and it is very hard to figure out that this vehicle is 12 years old.
Moving to the interior, the seller has only shared a single image of this particular Audi R8. We can note that it has an all-black leather interior with contrasting yellow stitching. It also gets the standard factory-fitted flat-bottom steering wheel, beautiful-looking climate control dials, a touchscreen infotainment system, and an aluminium gear shifter in the middle.
This particular Audi R8 is the V8-engined model. It came powered by a 4.2-litre naturally aspirated V8 motor, which was capable of producing an impressive 423 bhp and 430 Nm of torque. The company also offered a naturally aspirated V10 motor with the Audi R8, which made 517 bhp and 530 Nm of torque.
Generally, when we highlight such cars that are going on sale for the price of a Fortuner, we suggest that a lot of people avoid buying highly depreciated luxury cars. This is because most such ultra-high-end luxury cars are selling for a lot less than they used to be. However, this time around, we can say that if you are someone who has the money and wants something super unique, you can opt for this Audi R8.
This supercar for under Rs 50 lakh offers a lot of bang for the buck. It has only covered 20,000 km, which is not a lot when it comes to the capacity of 2.5 lakh km that this particular 4.2-litre naturally aspirated V8 can be used for. Additionally, the exterior and interior are in immaculate condition, considering that it is a 2014 model. The only problem that you'll have is that it is not a practical vehicle for a family. However, it is the best when it comes to enjoying long, open roads.
