The first Audi on the SSP isn't expected until 2027, but Hoffmann plans to see a portfolio of SSP-based models on the market by the end of the decade, which could include the R8 successor.Clyde E. Next year's Q6 E-tron commences Audi's next-gen onslaught, the sedan the first Audi designed on the Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture. About the only firm connection between present and future is Audi's desire to build the new halo in the same Böllinger Höfe factory assembling today's car with similar hand-built techniques.Ģ027 is a long time away in our hectic world, though, with global regulations and product plans changing on a yearly basis if not quicker. ![]() Autocar said the top dog in development is "staying true to the two-door performance coupe formula," intended to be the sharpest-handling and most powerful car at any Audi dealer. So it's probably more accurate to say - or continue to say - that Audi's working on battery-electric sports cars that will fill the slots occupied by the R8 and TT. The electric halo concepts we've seen have channeled the current R8's vibe in only the most roundabout ways, if at all, like the PB18 E-tron from 2018 you see above.

A report in Autocar last year cited an automaker exec as saying that "work is well under way on an electric successor to the R8." This year, at the Munich Motor Show, Autocar spoke to technical chief Oliver Hoffman, who provided the detail that future "iconic cars – sports cars and so on. The latter continues to be rumor that appears to be inching closer to fact. The former is finally fact: When the Audi R8 exits stage left into the underworld at the end of this model year, it will be the first time since 2006 that the Ingolstadt automaker has lacked a two-door sports car flagship. ![]() Two things we've been able to count on for the past seven or eight years are rumors of the Audi R8's death and rumors of an electric R8 successor. Work on an electric Audi R8 successor said to be 'well under way' Wouldn't show until 2027 at the earliest, and won't be called R8
