Audi is planning to build a diesel hypercar, using Le Mans-developed hybrid technology Audi is developing plans for a Le Mans-inspired diesel hybrid hypercar that would sit above todays R8.
Insiders suggest the car could be badged as Audi R10, and is intended to be a road-going mirror to Audis Le Mans-winning R18 e-Tron quattro.
That car used electricity generated from a flywheel system to power one electric motor for each front wheel, improving the cars performance, when pulling out of corners at speeds above 74mph.
There are no further details about what would be Audis flagship model, but expect a carbonfibre monocoque and a diesel no larger than a V8. The V12 diesel in the experimental R8 was judged as too heavy and having too much torque for existing transmissions according to Audi sources.
Autocar has also established that a prototype Bentley Flying Spur powered by a V8 diesel has recently been under assessment at the makers Crewe HQ.
