v of surprise to the worshippers of stamp specialists from quattro GmbH sewed for the the bourgeois Audi A4 beautiful sport uniforms and prepared sharp filling. So that, besides defile in the beautiful suit, new Audi R will deliver true pleasure to the judges of tasty ride. Of what and it was proposed to be convinced personally in Milan on the mountain paths and racing track.

Generally, in the automobile peace "wolf in the sheep skin" - purely German focus. R c to form - usual Audi, only wheel to poshire, mirror from polished aluminum yes exhaust pipe from nerzhaveyki. In fact behind the respectable suit hide themselves present zveryuga, zaglotivshiy herd into 420 rapid stallions. This time the Germans forewent the turbine supercharger in favor of the direct injection FSI, after obtaining the honest atmospheric racing motor, which can be boldly turned to the extreme 8 250 revolutions per minute. In connection with how on the forums and in the personal conversations the owners of previous "eras -3sok" with turbomotorami (6 000 masters R, who were let out from 1999 through 2001, and 8 000 owners R, recently removed from production) demolish themselves and criticize the ingol'shtadskikh bosses: "without turbine RS - no longer that light in tyuninge street rocket. Propala raisin!" Yes, tyuning of turbomotorov - this is entire subculture.

However, will regret about the absence of turbine only the one who never sat in the racing armchairs at the control new R and not weights to the gas. Locomotive thrust almost from the unmarried here excellently is combined with the racing accelerations on the high revolutions. In this the firm secret of motor 4.2 v8 FSI: the thrust, which ceases practically never.

Maximum torque into 430 hm is reached at 5 500 r/min, but 90% from them are accessible practically in entire working s-band 2 250 to 7 600 revolutions per minute. Moreover "on the tops" engine sounds not worse than legendary Italian sportkarov. Analogous motor is successfully tested on the racing bolide Audi R8 - the five-fold champion of the twenty-four-hour races Leman. First hundred "of eras -3ska" it changes in 4,8 seconds, the second - in 16,6 seconds. In comparison with less extreme version S4, sprint gain with the acceleration from zero to "hundred" - only second, and maximum speed is limited on the same of 250 km/h. It did be worthwhile to try? But salt not in the dry numbers, but in the new sport spirit.

R - completely not the "super-pumped version" of the usual Audi A4, into which they shoved large motor. This is qualitatively different automobile, on which it is possible not only rapidly, also, with the pleasure to drive to the work, but also to chase on the track (for which is provided the button "Sport" on the control - it forces engine more rapidly and more sharply to react to the pressing of the pedal of gas, timing device on the circle and the indicator of the temperature of oil). Both into the rain and into the snow even on wide sport rubber of 2shchshch/.eshchRy9 machine is persistently caught for the asphalt by the complete drive quattro and the progressive system Dynamic Ride Control. Specially for R the complete drive quattro they distributed in the proportion: 40% to the front wheels, 60% - to the rear (while usual proportion 50/50). This is why machine where more willingly enters into rapid turnings and allows light drifting (the sideslip).

Dynamic control running (Dynamic Ride Control), for the first time appeared on R, is shock absorbers with the instantly variable hardness - as a result the machine practically does not heel in the turnings and does not peck by nose even with the braking into the floor. To tear away R from the trajectory is also very difficult, but if drift happened - to correct it to the easily even not experienced in the sport ride person. In this, strictly, and there is technical sense of "sport automobile on 365 days in the year".

Thus, insidious rogue is released at liberty. But why in Milan, but not on the racing ring in native Bavaria on that side of the Alps? Let us try to find sense in this. For example, purely symbolic. On emblem Alfa Romeo - the coat of arms of Milan, and designer Walter yes Sil'va earlier worked on "alpha". Or aesthetical. From the light hand of Walter yes Sil'va, German technical genius finally was married on the love a romance feeling of excellent. The playful almonds of eyes blow thoughts about the romance ease of existence, yes even brilliant yellow color "imola" not to in no way name German on the spirit. In this clothing against the background of generous Apennine pastoral in the environments of Milan R it looks better than in the environment of the modest Gothics of native Ingol'shtadta.
