The Audi A8 Elegant and luxurious, the Audi A8 radiates confidence and poise. There’s a generous amount of cabin space, with opulent interior materials and equipment to deliver the ultimate driver and passenger comfort. Enhancing the driving dynamics is the latest generation Audi Space Frame ASF® – an incredibly rigid structure which increases safety, handling and agility thanks to its lightweight aluminium construction. A wide choice of engines are available, including the optimised 3.0 TDI and 4.
Engines 6 Petrol Diesel There are two kinds of engine available on this model – the W12 petrol engine and the FSI® direct-injection engine. FSI® is a unique Audi technology, originally developed for the Le Mans 24-hour endurance race to deliver increased power and torque as well as enhanced fuel efficiency. The way it does this is, in theory, very simple.
® Permanent all-wheel-drive Cars that deliver as much pulling power as the Audi A8 and S8 need a harness in place – a technology that delivers safety and control whilst enhancing the sporty characteristics which make them so thrilling to drive. That’s why quattro® permanent all-wheel-drive comes as standard on all A8 and S8 models (except the 3.2 FSI® and 2.8 FSI® models).
SE model equipment All A8 and S8 models have the following items of Standard equipment: Wheels, tyres and suspension Safety and security 17 x 8J ‘7-spoke’ alloy wheels with 235/55 R17 Y tyres Advanced Key – access and authorisation system through automatic data exchange between key and vehicle, allowing the key to remain in the driver’s pocket or bag at all times. To unlock and open, simply lift the exterior door handle. To lock, press the button on the handle.
