Audi has begun production of its new R8 sports car at the Neckarsulm plant in the German state of Baden-Württemberg.
The launch coincided with the 100-year celebration of facility.
"We are giving the go-ahead for the production of a sensational car that opens a new chapter in our company's history," emphasised Audi Board Chairman Prof. Martin Winterkorn in Neckarsulm.

"This vehicle adds a new flagship model at the top our range and further advances the position of our brand," commented Prof. Winterkorn.
The first customer deliveries of the new mid-engine sports car are expected in May or June 2007.
Late last week, Audi announced European pricing for the new car. U.S. pricing is expected to start slightly below $100,000.
