What is the difference between an Audi R8 engine and other sports car engines?

I am comparing the performance capabilities of various sports cars and I am wondering what makes the Audi R8 engine stand out from others. Any insights on what sets it apart would be greatly appreciated.

The Audi R8 engine uses a unique W12 configuration, allowing for a lower center of gravity and better weight distribution. This results in improved handling and steering abilities upon corners and turns.

Compared to traditional V8 engines, the Audi R8's V10 engine offers higher horsepower and torque outputs, providing a greater boost in acceleration and top speed. And with the addition of the new twin-turbocharged V6, the R8 offers even more impressive performance.
