      The Audi R8 is currently getting a facelift but it will eventually see a brand new model to replace it in 2015. Road and Track rendered what the replacement may look like and shared a few details. A twin turbo six cylinder is likely as it will likely be the 3.0 TFSI motor once it drops the supercharger for a pair of turbos. Additionally, a hybrid is in the works which is no surprise with how hard Audi is pushing hybrid performance after the recent victory of their R18 Hybrid at Le Mans. For now, treat this all as speculation but it sure seems to be the direction the R8 is headed.

        Ew, the older R8 had much more appeal. I'm gonna miss the V10 as well.

        Just a rendering, who knows what it really will look like.
