Audi R8 range is growing later this year with the addition of the R8 GT Spyder, that will be previewed at Le Mans in June ahead of its global debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September.
Power will come from the same 560bhp V10, that powers the coupe, mated to R-tronic six-speed automated manual transmission. Top speed is 193mph, six mph less than the coupe.
From the renderings it looks like the rear spoiler, front splitter will carry over from the coupe. Other things that will carry over include upgraded brakes, thinner glass, carbon-fibre components and Alcantara interior.
