  • Wat een schandelige manier van presenteren zeg echt. hoop dat hij er niet meer werkt lol, hij las het gewoon letterlijk van een blad af haha. mooi auto alleen waarom diesel, zie ze hier elke dag rijden (niet de diesels) blijft een super auto

  • Nissan gtr for the win cost 50 procents less and its faster. Audi not good car. OVepriced. Check in moskva racing draging 1 kilometer

    U Will see how audi is slow for its hp and tourqe. Rs6 with 800 hp is slow vs nissan gtr 660 hp.

  • de v10 ziet er toch mooier uit als deze vind ik, deze is te veel van het goeie of ik moet er nog aan wennen

  • hoe hij praat ook.. te overdreven acteerd

  • NEEE NIET DEZE HOMO WEER!!!!!

  • I want to hear what it sounds like -.-

  • He said: fleebadebaduhkasché troverrrnischadehebu fleebadebgruozvknerkb jnzekjzfdznlknfsdfknjsdfnskjfn­jezoeiaaeeoieju aeoiunoiudndjsjqhsqjerrrrrr.

  • Diesel belongs to trucks... not supercars!

  • Yugo, Lada, Dacia, Skoda (pre VW), FSO, not exactly the proudest moments in European car history. And money doesn't always help the problem either. Mercedes currently build some of the most unreliable cars on the road today.

    The point is, every country that produces cars will have made at least a few real stinkers.

    Dodge Neon, Chevy Cavaliers, Ford Windstars, Pinto's, Chevettes, 4 banger Mustangs, etc...

    Hyundai Pony's, Kia Rio's etc...

  • Zet die pokke muziek eens uit! Ik wil het geluid horen!

  • not v12 ti's is die copee

  • zonde van de gril zou er geen geel kenteke op wille plakken

  • hearing the car would be nice

  • @eforty6318 It's a diesel, diesel sounds like crap

  • audi waist their money for TDI v12 engine Diesel is not powerfull as petrol never was ...

    V12 engine petrol can get 1000 hp To easy.... So waist of money ....

    Nice AUDI GET WV ... I never want anymore audi what they done to audi firm before 12 years i liked audi now i dont... SO SAD. what they done ..

  • @Makeshoot

    you idiot why should it be a waste of money, you are a waste of money!

    audi wins le mans with the diesel R10

    and this has nothing to do with how easy you can get much HP

    audi wants to show what is possible with a diesel engine

    and diesel has a lot of advatages: more torque , they need less fuel, and they are robust

    only if you idiots don't like diesel you dont have to write such shit -.-

  • @Destruct4fun Full agreed! People should at least test drive modern common rail diesels before judging, because they are fantastic

  • Comment removed

  • Rather hear the Audi .

  • it sounds like he's talking backwards...

  • spoiler looks ugly! id take it off

  • yeah, sorry but horrid video. Gay euro disco music rather than engine sounds. Didnt show it doing anything really.  And i thought i understood him when he said "super", but apparently it means "great".

  • umm i prefer the horny sound of TDI engine instead of that crappy song.

  • autoweek,,, wat een slechte review!

    Geen geluid! Geen wheelspin e.d.... geen drifting.. hmm..

  • BUT HOW DOES THE SHIT EVEN SOUND !!!

    Fucking arabic sickfuck or what ever talking through the whole shit + some gayass music !!

  • nevermind the shit music, lets hear the frickin thing!!!

  • honestly wat the fuck kind of language is that

  • @NeeKroVal It's dutch.

  • Reading about it is even more exciting than watching this movie ...

  • I'm sorry but diesel and sport are 2 words that can't be combined.

  • @NeckPeck You obviously have no clue how insane diesel engines have become. o.o

  • i can't bel;ieve they let this spineless faggot talk/drive this testosterone oozing caR...

  • mongool eerste klasse

  • hahha i love how this car had police escort in the middle of america :)) thats how much europian cars are worht it :))) i dont see this shit in any peace of american shit car

  • German and European rules!!!American sports cars???lol!!!!!

  • @audir8v81 asian cars are not that bad either...but you gotta love americans v8...example the new mustang super snake...is a beast!! and the new 5.0 mustang is faster than the new m3 on several tracks. I don't like american cars lol But there are some that makes the difference...new cadillac cts-v is sick! i saw it yesterday! I drive a nissan ser spec v btw is good on gas! lol

  • get this man a fucking tripod jesus lol

  • Ik heb in benzine auto's gereden en een diesels.. Die nieuwe diesels rijden veel lekkerder.. Veel koppel em je hoeft niet vaak trg te schakelen !!

  • waarom zijn jullie de enigste met een filmpje van de v12 tdi :P

    klopt het nou dat ze m niet gaan uitbrengen omdat ze geen koppeling kunnen maken ervoor?

  • wat een mongool is die gast

  • wow that thing is ugly

  • it is sooooo stupid to try to bring race into a car video.... what the hell is wrong with you people, there are good cars and there are bad cars period.

  • Damn wat praat deze gozer dom.Lijkt wel een robot zonder emotie.

    Geweldig deze R8!Ik mag er mee gaan rijden!Joepie!Wat geweldig!

    Idioot.

  • only v12 diesel sports car and they wont even let us hear the engine sounds :/

  • En ik mag er mee gaan rijden.. super..

    Zeg er dan ook meteen achter, ik ben homofiel..

    Jezes wat een kwaliteit van die Nederlandse Reporters.

    Neem even wat cursussen ofzo?!

  • ...its ugly

  • Wat een kankersaaie review!!!!!! Gaaaaaaappp!!!! Does it really sounds like a tractor?

  • i like th 5.2's rims better

    but this is fuckin sexy

  • Where's the sound of the TDI V12? I wanna hear it, or is it just too awful...?

  • damn i can't find a video on this car that hasn't,

    1, got stupid music attached ( who in there right mind put music to a car video)

    2, is in a language i understand mainly English and Swedish.

    thanks to the uploader though at least this clip had subtitles

  • this engine comes from the audi r10

  • what the fuck man speak english lol

  • fake and gay

  • @redbull9679

    up yours buddy

  • @redbull9679

    It's not fake dipshit :P

    This is the prototype of the V12 TDI, the only one in existence.

  • its not even a car in production yet.

  • Wheres the sound? where are the specs? wtf...

  • very gay review

  • why the gay trance music and no engine sound?

  • So we saw him talking and stepping into the car... that guy should get fired...

  • audi has never made v12 engine

  • @redbull9679 the Q7 has a V12 model...

  • @DenHond that is an engine of a ferrari enzo

  • @redbull9679 are you serious? The Q7 V12 is a diesel engine (so is this one in the video), never has Ferrari built a diesel engine...

  • @DenHond but it has gotton better atettion than audi to be serious i love audi r8 personal faviort but never heard of a audi having a v12 kinda crazy why do u think its called audi r8 from it origanaal ancestor the audi r8 it had a v8 dumbass

  • @redbull9679 So because the R8 originally had a V8, you say that audi has never made a V12... As I said two tmimes before the Q7 has a V12 model (look it up).

    ...And try to talk some better English, people wouldn't have that of a hard time trying to understand what you're saying...

  • @redbull9679

    Audi Q7 V12...

  • god damn it you dutch cunt, stfu with your blabbering and let us hear it. and how the fuck did the germans trust a dutchman to drive?

  • It is obviously so loud that it just sounds quiet to us humans.

  • ya gotta love this.

    have to admit that the review is a bit short and incomplete. i dont hear the engine. no specs on acceleration etc.

    But DAMN what a ride!!!!!!!

  • he is too ugly to drive it

  • duhhh, listen carefull @ 0.24sec. MIAMI !!

  • SOS

    Which city is this,guys????

  • My Volvo V70 is powered by an 2.5 l Audi TDI engine. With automatic transmission, it never consumes more than 8 l fuel per 100 km (city traffic in winter). Travelling over land, consumption goes sometimes under 4 l per 100 km. Average over the year is 6.8 l per 100 km. The car is running well over 220 km/h - thank you, Audi, for another excellent sample of German engineering!

  • wierd question, how would a V12 Diesel sound???

  • BOOM!

  • @linezero3

    like their r15 race car

  • @linezero3 It almost doesn't sound like anything...

  • @linezero3 Go and listen to the Q7 V12 TDI, doesen't have the same exhaust and tuning as the R8 but thats what a V12 diesel sounds like

  • @linezero3 i imagine like a long legged pissed off purto rican

  • @linezero3 like a late 90's early 00's lemans racer I guess lol

  • @linezero3 Very very EVIL. look up Q7 V12 TDI.

  • @linezero3 look at the audi Q7 v12 TDI

  • @linezero3  listen to a audi q7 (4X4) which has the V12 TDI

  • @linezero3 lol like a pregnant woman who gets a 100 twins XD at the same time

  • very nice car, but the presentation of this movie...

  • id sell my body fro that

  • Sexy car and sexy city. <3

  • top gear could have done a better review, haha

  • Im dutch myself and i have to say that these guys talk like they have a dick in their but.

  • muito bom esse video

  • Grow up!!

  • No, you have no sense. They are in the same class, they are the top SUVs there. If you compare all the SUVs with the 3.0diesel engines, they weight near the same, not much more than 100kg diference. But this Q7 V12 TDI is quite heavier that the other SUVs, just because it has a huge diesel engine, Diesel engines are much heavier than petrol engines with the same size. So, the V12 TDI it's slower because it's heavier, and it's heavier because it a diesel. Heavier and less powerfull.

  • Go home man, those 4.9 seconds was the times that they have said when it was a concept, now that it is on sale, it does 5.4, i'ts the officierl numbers from AUDI, if it could do 4.9s, why the heel audi will declare only 5.4? because they want to sell less cars?

    And what? 0-60 isn't launch? 0-60 is soposed to have the car stop and then launch to reach 60mph or 100kph as you wish.

  • still faster then your sentra

  • Torque is what you realy feel when the car accelerates. Hp is something we never realy know what it is, but we steel buying cars with +hp and less torque for what? lol Hp are necessary but torque is fundamental in acceleration. Like it was said here break the neck of a passanger its more fun than speeeeed. Imagine that you go at 120km/h, you push the pedal and feel that the car are realy acceletating. That is power that is torque!

  • Comment removed

  • Torque is not Horse Power, Torque is mean the real power you have on the axle, not how fast your engine responds but you can translate the torque as how much steady your revolution rhythm of the engine in the same situations with another one Car with the same (Weight Kilos, Horse Power, Gearbox, e.t.c) but different Torque at the same revolution range.

  • THIS CARS IS RUBISH.

    This engine weights more than an elephant, so it will be much slower than the petrol V10, and less powerfull, so it will be much slower.

    IF YOU ARE RICH TO BUY A R8, YOU CAN AFORD THE PETROL, IS FASTER AND SOUNDS MUCH BETTER

  • A Turbo Diesels engine has a fuck load of tourqe, and better milage than petrol... Thats why a diesel supercar would be PERFECT!

  • why do you need torque if you dont have revs? A TDI golf has much more torque than a S2000, but the S2000 is twice as fast with half the torque so what?

    HP is what makes you faster not torque.

    Torque is nothing without revs, like revs is nothing without torque.

  • I think breaking my passengers neck with torque is cooler than a minor difference in top speed.

    And soon well be driving 2-stroke hydrogen anyway.

  • WTF are you saying??? You already look like you never had in a decent powerfull car.

    Neck breakers are NA engines, and the only powerfull NA engines in the world are non-diesel.

    Explain me how a turbo-diesel engine can break your nek when it has 1 second or more of turbo-lag...

  • Launch control, throttle + brakes.

  • you know nothing man... you wont lauch faster than a gasoline car because the limit is when the car gets wheelspin, and even a 300hp subaru can get wheelspin. And you are wrong 2 times, because the TDI will lauch slower that the petrol version, because it is much heavier.

    Watch and learn, torque and 0-60 times:

    Audi Q7 V12 TDI 1000Nm torque - 5.4s

    Merc ML63 AMG 630Nm - 5.0s

    Cayenne Turbo S 750Nm - 4.7s

    BMW X6 M 680Nm - 4.7 seconds

    Explain-me now, more torque and less speed?

  • I was talking about 'breaking' necks, and all that weight should help keep the weels down in that first second wouldnt it? The diesel loses only because it can't rev the same way. Personally I can live with that.

    BTW your comment on a 2 liter petrol doing 700hp is horseshit, unless you'd like to replace the piston rings every 200 miles. WRC cars get 450 bhp from a 2 liter turbo gasoline and thats about the maximum where it is still realiable. A 2L diesel can actually get close to that.

  • You live in another world man, WRC have to be rebuilt not in 200miles that was years ago, bit much more, but they are diferent, because they have 34mm restriction, and still have to do 550Nm of torque, with top power betwen 2000rpm and 4500rpm.

    There are daily driven, reliable, nissan skylines and Supras with 1000hp+.

    A 2.0 liter diesel can do a top 300hp smoking like shit, and destroing tubos. a STOCK mitsubishi evo FQ400 does 400hp, tuned can do 800hp. Diesel are much slower than petrol

  • that doesn´t work like that.. just like putting double torque in a s2000 and it would be 4 times as fast as a golf.. xD

  • @weed46

    did you ever saw the R15 on a track?

    its a Diesel, and has won many many races....you just can't say diesel are shit, cause they're not...sorry

  • Wrong

  • Wrong? why? tell me one car that is faster on diesel than petrol... there isn't any, because a 2 engines with the same displacement, the petrol cars are much more powerfull. Put a 2.0 liter diesel doing 700hp+ like petrol does.

  • Do you know that the engine was originally 655 bhp but they put it down to 500 because there isn't a gearbox that can withstand the power of it....after all it is quite small car....the gearbox have to be 2 times the size it is now to handle the original 1450 Nm engine...it cannot be done...too much power and too small car!! It's great though! I love audi and if they put this one in production i'm gonna have one..i don't care about the price....

    This isn't a car...it's a masterpiece!!!

  • agree with all the car is sexy and cool,but for the performance,only 500 hp!, the ZR1will burn this car and cost less than 40% of the price.but still this R8 monster has 1000Nm torque which is 177Nm more than the ZR1.

  • Don't you get that people just dont want american (sports)cars?

    People who spend that kind of money on cars dont want to sit in a plastic hyundai-like interior like you get in american cars.

  • @DutchManticore you're a fucking idiot...

  • @TwiceThreee

    I'm not a fucking idiot. First of all 15 people agree with me, and the sales figures are also compliant with what I'm saying.

    Americans cars sell in America because of the economic adventage and patriotism. The rest of the world prefers other products.

    The number of Caddilacs sold in Holland in 2008 were 28. Whereas Ferrari sold 214. (We only have 16 million inhabitants). I know you can't compare the cars but more expansive racecars sold than family vehicles from USA.

  • @DutchManticore

    and i ment expensive not expansive..

  • @DutchManticore Lol, have you seen the Genesis? Wrapped in leather beauty.

  • @DutchManticore Wow. Such a gratuitous, non-intelligent comment from an otherwise know-it-all? Thankfully, the only hyundai-like interior can be found in what I actually call a Jyunkdai. Have you ever sat in, say, a Buick Lucerne, perhaps? DutchLoser. ** CHK-CHK. POW!! **

  • @AintLifeGarand

    You're displaying what is commonly known worldwide as american ignorance.

    I'm not saying the european look on things is superior to the american one, i'm just saying they're different.

    American cars are worth shit in Europe, and they don't sell well at all.

  • @DutchManticore Well, thank goodness you know it all, huh? ;)

  • @AintLifeGarand

    What the fuck is your problem dude. If you don't want to engage in a discussion or even react in a normal way then why take the effort to be a little jerk?

    Don't you get that when people read this they go.. oh here's another american making a big fuss and acting like a jerk over nothing again? People like you are the reason Americans first have to prove they're normal to me when I meet them.

  • @DutchManticore My problem, currently, is you, moron, and I have no desire whatsoever to meet a putz such as you without my .45. DutchLoser...

  • @AintLifeGarand

    Yeah I expected that already. You call me a loser but you won't meet me without your trusty gun. Wow I guess everyones respect for you here soared sky high huh?

    Get the fuck outta here :D

    I think me getting 24 thumbs up on the original comment that started this is enough to show you nobody agrees with you except for fellow-americunts.

    Bye bye

  • @DutchManticore I'll meet you without my gun, DutchPussy. I would just rather shoot you than read even one more of your 3rd-grade comments. Seems you like to see yourself...type, I......guess....:) Asshole.

  • @AintLifeGarand

    Yeah wow such an intelligent and mind-expanding comment.

    Thanks for disproving the dominating american stereotypes... oh wait.

  • @DutchManticore ...I dunno' about dominating, just a lot more Cool than you will ever be. But, I mean, you can go ahead and dream about it...

  • @DutchManticore dat zijn egt die leveloze kut amerikanen

    die denken dat ze heel wat zijn met hun guns -__-

    laat ze komen met vuiste man 2 man :p

  • @AintLifeGarand You're probably Canadian or something just trying to troll with American stereotypes. Nobody is this bad.

    American cars have notoriously bad interiors, nobody disagrees with this. You're ridiculously gun trigger dick waving happy, even your name is painfully retarded. Aint life garand? .30 06 4 lyfe yo. So lame

  • @GT4604 I'm probably American, so that's yet one more thing you're wrong about. I imagine most all Americans disagree with the interior comment, Mr. Anal Pore, the 2nd thing you're wrong about, so go back to getting another tattoo. Anyone who uses the "word" yo" probably needs to turn his baseball cap around, pull his pants up, and find a life.

  • @DutchManticore youre displaying what is commonly known in america as american envy.... nobody cares about your racist OPINION... i know plenty of foreigners that would love to have a 67 goat, camaro new or old,, vett,, the list goes on... dont try to tell me american cars are shit, HITLER. not everyone agrees with you dip shit..

  • @TwiceThreee

    Lol America envy. I was about to just stop reading there but I'm glad I continued.

    Ofcourse there are some people that like american cars as well, i'm just saying that the vast majority does not and therefor american car makers shouldn't focus their attention on Europe. American car sales in europe as marginal.

    And "dont tell me american cars are shit, HITLER"?! Maybe if you tried talking normal people would take you and america more serious.

  • @DutchManticore its not plastic you dumb-ass its carbon fiber and fiberglass. their is a big difference.

  • @tnasty2o99

    Carbon fiber and fiberglass in American cars? Yes elements of the dash contain those high quality materials but overall the usage of cheap hard plastics is abundand.

    Don't need you to agree with me, everyone none american here already does.

    No offense intented though.

  • @DutchManticore exactly... I dont understand how some* American muscle guys bash euro cars and curse it for being "too expensive" (because they cant find anything else wrong with it) or calling a Jap car that makes good power "rice" just because it doesnt have a huge V8 then they turn around and make cars with fake hood scoops, carbon fibre stickers, pleather interiors and 4.6L V8's making 320 hp (or even more pathetic a 5.7L V8 making 375hp) and have the nerve to call it a GT car.

  • @Kurruptedmindz LMAO fake hood scoops , i so agree with u

  • @Kurruptedmindz you're so damn right! i can absolutely rage over those morons all day long.

  • @Kurruptedmindz hehe you want to see the 5.7l they made that produced 175bhp!

  • @FUCK202 LOOL you lying bastard that doesnt exist lool. really though? they made that? and put it in what a super lawnmower? who the fuck.... would want that lol. too funny.

  • @Kurruptedmindz yes its true, i cant send you a link but google 'nastyz28 camaro 5.7 1979' and click on '1979 Camaro Data' then look for the bhp part for the 5.7 and you will see it has 175bhp. and you may say 'well thats 1979' but the chevrolet corvette from 1958 had 290bhp with a 4.6 v8! thats 21 years older, with 1.1l smaller naturally aspirated engine and still producing over 100bhp more.

  • @DutchManticore i want american sports cars so idk how you can realy say that its vector wrx-8 is pretty good ajnd the inside isnt plastic and im pretty sure american cars dont have plastic interiors but it depends not all do

  • @DutchManticore bro my dad had a 2008 audi A8 it was a piece of shit. now he has a2010 cts v and it shits on any of the cars he has ever owned and that is a lot of cars

  • yeah but ten years later an audi is still perfect. that chevy peice of shit will have already needed a rebuild and who knows how much tedious repair.

  • @daylightbombings unlikely to be honest, in terms of how it looks and the interior trim, the audi will be better in 10 years, mechanically, american cars will be better. you look at ebay US or other american car websites and you will see chevrolets and chryslers etc going with 500k+ miles on in good mechanical condition.

  • its deisel, it pretty much flies off of torque alone, if it ever reaches production i would love to see a race....not saying it will but i do believe the R8 would be a ZR1 outright

  • awesome car!! i tried the v8 time ago and hopefully going to try this one on december. Can´t wait to hit the road! That video was filmed in the Mc Arthur Bridge (Miami Beach). Miss living there! Great place to live!

  • you have to hand it to the Germans&swiss for inventing the turbo and diesel motors :)

  • That car is AMAZING, coolest thing i've seen on four wheels in ages.

    PLEASE AUDI, PRODUCE IT!!!!

  • I agree. we want to hear the enigine!! Anyone heard about how much this one would cost if they produce it?

  • it starts at 180.00 Euros but it`s more likely that it will costs more than this 180.00

  • Great car but wish there were engine sounds and not the annoying music which doesn't really go with the clip...

  • i agree but to be honest it would be very quiet because of the diesel and how audi recycles the engine noise to produce more power AMAZING

  • that audi is fucking SICK! love that car! and the spoiler and the roof just amazing! wooo!

  • Not diggin the front of back, other than that :)

  • Hopefully more diesel cars will come to the US, I miss all the diesels available in Europe.

  • hey wil je wat geld verdienen online achter de computer ?

    chek ff mn kanaal en laat me weten wat je ervan vind!

    tot ziens

  • I heard they killed the idea of a v12 tdi in this car now? I am really depressed as I only like diesels and this would be the ultimate diesel ever. Stupid Audi!!!!

  • WOOOOOW THIS IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!!

    prachtige auto echt een droomwagen... mooier dan een lamborghini of ferrari en sneller....!!!

  • Wth this car only goes up to 6000 rpm??? look at 0:49

  • Its no patrol its an DIESEL!

  • diesel?? because of the 1000 nm its still fast , just get longer gears so u still go fast @ low rpm

  • beacause it's a diesel i guess

  • 6000RPM is alot for a diesel....

  • yea transport trucks redline at 2000 lol

  • k irriteer me dood aan hem.. fking FAKE

  • Te ingestudeerd..

  • echt he, hij komt helemaal niet geloofwaardig over

  • whahah 60 in de hoogste versnelling harder ben je ook niet gegaan in dit filmpje FOOL tante trien in dr truttenschudder komt je nog voorbij als die politie er niet was

  • jezus... leer de camera stil te houden

  • fucking dutch

  • scheisse German
