Sporty and Luxurious
There is no car that can impress more in combining sportiness with
comfort and luxury than the S8. The sprint from zero to 100 km/h takes
the S8 a total of 5.4 seconds, the performance potential of a sports
car produced by the 4.2 l V8 power unit.
It packs a punch of 265 kW at 7000 rpm, but running is smooth as plush
and pollutant emission level low. Combine this with the "quattro"
¨ permanent four-wheel drive, the matching sportiness of the aluminium
driveline, the aluminium Audi Space Frame body construction and an
elegant decor with sports seats in valcona leather and you have in
the S8 a car that is setting new standards in performance and driving
pleasure. Confidence instead of rivalry, sensation instead of sensationalising
- these attributes of the A8 also apply to the S8.
