Is the Audi R8 equipped with a rear-mounted engine?

I've been admiring the Audi R8's sleek design and I'm curious about the engine placement. I've heard that some high-performance cars have a rear-mounted engine for better weight distribution.

Yes, the Audi R8 has a mid-mounted engine, specifically a 5.2-liter V10, which is placed right behind the driver. This layout provides optimal weight distribution and improves handling and performance.
