The limited edition Audi R8 LMX features laser-enhanced LED high-beam headlights utilizing the same laserlight technology shown on its R18 E-tron Quattro LMP1 race car. The R8 LMX leverages a tiny laser module in each headlight that, after conversion to white light, can throw a beam about 1,640 feet down the road. Not stopping there, Audi also has increased the mid-mounted V10’s output to 570 horsepower and finished it in Ara Blue paint with carbon accents all around, exclusive wheels, red brake calipers, and black Nappa leather interior with hints of blue throughout. It’s important to note that BMW’s i8 also has laser beam headlamps (as an option) but looks like the R8 LMX is hitting production and the streets before it. European customers can place their orders now with deliveries starting this summer for 210,000 euros.
