The significantly updated Audi A8 Has Arrived | Audi
The New S8 Features a 571 hp 4-liter V8 Twin-Turbo
The new S8 is powered by a 4-liter V8 twin-turbo 4.0 TFSI engine, delivering an impressive 420 kW (571 hp) and 800 Nm of torque. Combined with a 48V mild hybrid system and an 8-speed Tiptronic transmission, it achieves both high performance and efficiency.
Standard features include the predictive active suspension, which balances ride comfort and handling stability at a high level, as well as dynamic all-wheel steering, which improves maneuverability at low speeds and enables smooth lane changes at high speeds by steering the front wheels in the same direction as the rear. Also standard is the rear sport differential, which actively distributes torque between the rear wheels during high-speed cornering for even sportier handling.
The exterior is distinguished by exclusive design elements, including front and rear bumpers, a Singleframe grille with a honeycomb design and aluminum-look inserts, OLED rear lights with a unique lighting pattern, quad oval exhaust finishers, and 21-inch five double-spoke star design alloy wheels, all expressing its high performance.
The interior is predominantly black, with a full leather package and exclusive sport seats in Valcona leather, achieving a high level of sportiness and refinement. New exterior colors, such as Daytona Gray pearl effect and Ultra Blue metallic, are exclusively available for the S8 and the S line exterior package.
Prices range from 11.9 million to 18 million yen for the A8, and 20.5 million yen for the S8.
