'Over My Dead Body:' Audi Design Boss Had One Non-Negotiable For The New Supercar

We were all taken aback in early June when, seemingly out of nowhere, Audi dropped a bombshell. Some two years after the final R8 rolled off the assembly line, there was a new supercar bearing the Four Rings.

A new video goes behind the scenes of the supercar’s development. As with every car, it all started with a sketch, but Audi needed just 405 days to have a drivable prototype ready for testing. If you somehow had any doubts about its Italian ties, the test mule featured in the video has the Temerario’s body and the raging bull logo stitched onto the headrests.
