The Audi R8 might not be as dead as we once thought, if a new report from Autocar is correct. Take this information as the anonymously-sourced report that it is, but if true, the R8 could be coming back as an Audi version of the Lamborghini Temerario.

I t’s been a year since Audi built the final R8. Although Lamborghini is replacing the Huracan with the new Temerario, a twin from Ingolsta

The idea of an electric R8 has fallen flat, so Audi is doing what it knows works - asking Italy for some excitement.
