Anderson Germany is trying to reinvent black with a new Audi R8 customization program called Hyper Black Edition. Anderson's Audi R8 Hyper Black comes with a bespoke aerodynamics package, a personalized interior and an upgraded power output. Audi's standard 525 hp 5.2 liter engine in the R8 has been modified by Anderson for the Hyper Black Edition to output 589 hp at 8700 rpm. The aftermarket specialists says the torque output of the Anderson Audi R8 Hyper Black has also been increased proportionally to the horsepower. To get the extra umpf, the Anderson Audi R8 Hyper Black features a modified exhausts system developed by Rennkats, that saves 22 kg, a re-mapped ECU, and a sports air filter.
Anderson's Audi R8 Hyper Black sits on
carbon-coated 19-inch rims, with orange edges, and brakes calipers of the same color. Anderson's body kit for the R8 Hyper Black includes new front spoiler lip, rear spoiler, and a rear diffuser.
The interior of the Anderson Audi R8 Hyper Black features a carbon fiber / leather combination, with bespoke handbrake handle, radio visor, ashtray, handles for adjusting the seats, door panels, and side panels.
Anderson has not yet priced the Audi R8 Hyper Black.
Anderson Press Release:
AUDI R8 HYPER BLACK EDITION FROM ANDERSON GERMANY
Once the car reaches a road speed of 100 km/h, the rear spoiler moves automatically as if by magic. This street legal sports car that somehow has a look of UFO – albeit a fantastically beautiful – inspires respect to any Porsche. With 443 inches long, only 125 height and 1620 kg weight, this all-aluminum flounder is practically sticking on the street.
Once again the company ANDERSON Germany from
Dusseldorf helps a practically perfect Audi R8 with specific interventions to attract unlimited attention. First, the performance of 5.2 liter engine and 525 hp was increased, that provides now up to 8700 rpm, 589 hp and accordingly grown torque. This power increase was implemented through the Rennkats exhaust system (this alone allows to save 22 kg weight), a software optimization, and air filter modification. Of course, the exhaust path has a remote-controlled valve adjusting system that lets the driver opt from three different levels of noise. So much for the “inner values”.
Among external and thus visible changes, it is worth to mention exclusive carbon-coated 19-inch rims painted in body color with edging in Racing Orange style. Through the rim, the brake caliper is visible, of course, painted in Racing Orange as well.
On the other hand, the carbon exterior package should also be mentioned which, apart from the window frames, has “covered” various other parts like the front spoiler lip, rear spoiler for improved downforce, the rear diffuser and the mirror. All windows and rear lights were tinted. Last but not least is the expensive paint finish in black mirror which Anderson worthily called Hyper Black. This paint gives the R8 V10 somewhat a black soul.
The interior finish with matte black carbon fiber leather combined with orange Alcantara holds any comparison. At this point, this so-called carbon interior package includes the handbrake handle, the radio visor, the ashtray, the handles of the seat adjustment, door panels, and the side panels of the center console and shifter surround. And finally, the already first-rate sports steering wheel was additionally enhanced with visible carbon.
