The ace cricketer – Virat Kohli – took the delivery of his Audi R8 LMX today from Mr. Joe King, Head, Audi India.

It seems that Indian cricketers have suddenly developed immense interest in automobiles recently. We all know the love and respect Mahendra Singh Dhoni has for motorcycles. Now, the famous Indian cricketer and the captain of the Indian Test Cricket Team – Virat Kohli – has joined the bandwagon. Kohli, today, took the delivery of his Audi R8 LMX from Mr. Joe King, Head, Audi India. What is more interesting is the fact that only 99 of such cars will be produced and delivered worldwide and Kohli has become one of 99 such customers of the Audi R8 LMX.

Commenting on this latest purchase, Virat Kohli said, ““I am delighted with my new limited edition super sports car Audi R8 LMX. I am especially proud and excited to be one of only 99 owners of this special car. I have always loved automobiles and have been an admirer of Audi. I already own an Audi R8 and Audi Q7. I am looking forward to some exciting drives with this new machine.”

Adding to what Virat said, Mr. King commented, ““We have always believed in making fans and not just customers. The Audi brand embodies sportiness, progressiveness and sophistication and Virat truly personifies these attributes. The Audi R8 LMX thrills with intelligent lightweight engineering, impressive design and breathtaking driving performance right from the word go. I am sure that Virat will enjoy his drives in the R8 LMX as much as he enjoys playing his cover drives. We wish him more laurels for his career ahead,”

This Audi R8 is the most powerful Audi car ever as it produces 570bhp of power with the help of the seven-speed S tronic gearbox which transfers the power to the quattro permanent all-wheel drive system. To top it all, the car crosses the 0-100km/h mark in just 3.4 seconds and reaches a top speed of 320km/h. Bu the highlight of the car is its Laser high beam lighting which increases the range and safety, offering illumination range up to 500 metres.
