it's not if you keep on writing they have the same wheelbase 100 times, then they will get the same wheelbase for magic...
it's not if you keep on writing they have a different wheelbase 100 times then the chassis' must be different, then they will get a different chassis for magic...

A plot twist for you - having a different wheelbase does not mean you have a different chassis.

You are focusing on the difference in wheelbase as being proof that the cars do not share a chassis. In that case - can you explain the following statement:
'A new aluminium and carbon-fibre chassis shared with the Lamborghini Huracan means it weighs 50kg less than its predecessor, but is 40 per cent stiffer. [...] The chassis is shared with the Lamborghini Huracan (although the wheelbase is stretched by 3cm), and uses the same combination of aluminium and carbon-fibre.'

Or maybe more pertinent, comments from Dr Ulrich Hackenberg:

'the new Huracan chassis is adaptable and will underpin a series of models. In the Huracan's case it amounts to a 50 per cent increase in stiffness compared with the Gallardo's all-aluminium design with a simultaneous 10 per cent reduction in weight. Like the Gallardo and current R8, the engineering expertise that's gone into it comes out of Audi's Neckarsulm plant and combines Audi Space Frame aluminium production techniques with new productionised carbon fibre. In the Huracan's case - and the next R8's - it'll be a chassis for mid-engined cars with longitudinal engines and four-wheel drive. The initial plan is four models across two brands using this chassis.'

So why do I assert that the Huracan and R8 use the same chassis, because the former Board Member for Technical Development at Audi says that is the case.
