Audi A8 sports new look and enhanced specification
03 May 2015|2,794 views
Offered in standard or long wheelbase formats, the latest A8 range features a rationalised choice of engines. A pair of TDI units powers standard wheelbase versions, and both are also available in conjunction with the long wheelbase body.
The 3.0-litre V6 TDI benefits from a slight power increase from 258bhp to 262bhp and a further reduction in CO2 output from an already impressively low 155g/km to 149g/km (in conjunction with 18-inch wheels), equating to a combined economy figure of 17.6km/L.
SE Executive versions include features such as the Audi parking system advanced with reversing camera, the advanced key for convenient locking, unlocking and starting without direct key intervention and hands-free bootlid operation.
In addition to a purposeful new look, the exterior specification of the new Sport models also includes new 19-inch seven parallel spoke alloy wheels and state-of-the-art MatrixBeam LED head lights, which use banks of LEDs that can be individually shut off to avoid dazzling oncoming and leading traffic while retaining full beam illumination.
With its lightweight construction, quattro all-wheel drive and standard four-mode adaptive air suspension, the A8 has always been one of the most agile and controllable luxury saloons.
