Audi R8: Most fuel-efficient supercar



TopGear has crowned the Audi R8 as most fuel-efficient super car.
The Audi R8 is known to be a super sports car with its centrally mounted V8 engine, aluminium body and amazing stability, but what people don’t know is the Audi R8 has a great fuel efficiency compared to other sports cars.

Top Gear has put together five of today’s top sports cars in a race to find out which one of them is the most fuel efficient. Racing against the Audi R8 there was a Mercedes Mclaren, an Aston Martin DBS, a Ferrari 599 and a Lamborghini Murcielago.

Each one of those cars were filled with one gallon of petrol and they raced until they run out of petrol, the Ferrari was the first one to stop after only 1.7 miles the second to stop was the Aston Martin DBS, followed by the Mercedez, the Lamborghini stopped after impressive 4.1 miles but the great champion was the Audi R8 with exactly 5 miles covered.
