It is powered by a <b>V8 engine</b> mated to six-speed transmission, now pneumatically operated using paddle shifters in the steering wheel. The shifting events are more precise compared with conventional manual gearshifts and allow the mileage of the unit to be quadrupled to up to 24,000 kilometers. The whole setup delivers a total of 460 HP. The <b>race car</b> has also received a safety fuel tank with a capacity of 120 liters integrated with the carbon fiber cell of the Audi Concept Audi A5 DTM Sport Cars Concept that allows the current distance of a <b>DTM race</b> to be covered without a refueling stop.<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5653904593516418994" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbSV9yGLdOEyA6JV99romAnW0V5M1MPBzBf4iTEJ8s8_AsYf5kT703Z5u4cLlIyCTovGLcj-5GeEbZwr2jUf4ZLgM6RO9-mYqmebL1FUygK_f_SsKx-hV3fSaXK7sNiTCccU6U_xp134w/s400/Audi-Sport-Cars-Concept-Audi-A5-DTM-3.jpg" style="display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></b><b>Audi Concept Audi A5 DTM Sport Cars Concept</b><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">However, it’s under the skin that the biggest changes have been made.

The model will be homologated for March 1st and will compete in the <b>2012 DTM series</b> against German rivals BMW and Mercedes-Benz. While the renderings show a pre-facelift model, Audi says the production vehicle will closely resemble the 2012 A5 Coupe which is slated to go on sale later this year.
