Audi R8 (42) with coilover suspension

The Audi R8 of the 42 model series, produced from 2006 to 2015, is one of Audi's most distinctive sports coupés. As a mid-engined sports car with all-wheel drive (quattro) and powerful V8 or V10 engines, it stands for impressive performance and a striking appearance. The 42A, 422 and 423 models are the variants with different drive and body designs - from the classic coupé to the open-top Spyder. Anyone wishing to enhance the performance and appearance of the Audi R8 even further will benefit enormously from the installation of a high-quality coilover suspension. A height-adjustable sports suspension enables individual lowering, which noticeably lowers the vehicle's centre of gravity. This ensures even more precise handling, more direct steering and more driving dynamics on winding roads or at higher speeds. Compared to a conventional sports suspension, a coilover suspension scores with the infinitely variable adjustment of the vehicle height - perfectly tailored to individual requirements. The lowering of the Audi R8 in particular results in even more powerful road holding, which additionally emphasises the sporty design. Ambitious drivers also benefit from the combination of driving pleasure and suitability for everyday use - whether with the V8 with 420 hp or the V10 with over 500 hp. In conjunction with a coilover suspension, the Audi R8 (42) becomes an even more active super sports car for the road.

Audi R8 (42) with KW V3 coilover suspension with HLS 4 hydraulic lift system

The KW V3 coilover suspension with HLS 4 hydraulic lift system for the Audi R8 (42) brings maximum flexibility and suitability for everyday use in harmony with sporty performance. Thanks to the high-quality stainless steel design, it is not only durable, but also particularly corrosion-resistant - perfect for all those who regularly drive their R8. The individual lowering of 10-25 mm at the front and rear axle ensures a significantly more dynamic road holding and emphasises the sporty look of the mid-engined sports car. Particularly noteworthy is the HLS 4 hydraulic lift system, with which the R8 can be raised at the touch of a button - ideal for driveways, bumps or multi-storey car parks. This allows you to enjoy a sporty, low look when driving and at the same time maximum suitability for everyday use when required. The adjustable rebound and compression damping also allows you to adjust the suspension perfectly to your driving style and the track conditions - whether on country roads or motorways. The combination of precise handling, flexible vehicle height and lift function makes this coilover suspension one of the best solutions for sporty, ambitious R8 drivers who don't want to compromise.
