What is Quattro all-wheel drive and how does it improve the performance of the Audi R8?

I've been hearing a lot about Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive system, but I'm not sure what exactly it does. Can someone explain how it works and what benefits it has on the Audi R8's performance?

Quattro all-wheel drive is a system that distributes power to all four wheels of the Audi R8, providing better traction, handling, and acceleration. It uses a center differential and other technology to constantly adjust power distribution based on driving conditions. As a previous Audi R8 owner, I can attest to the significant improvement in handling and confidence while driving.

In addition to improved performance and handling, Quattro all-wheel drive on the Audi R8 also helps with safety. By having power distributed to all four wheels, it reduces the chance of losing control in slippery conditions. When I tested out the R8 on a wet track, I was amazed at how stable and responsive it remained.
