The new Audi S8 combines elegant saloon styling with an energetic performance to deliver optimum luxury. The sophisticated model is comfortable for all passengers, and there's plenty of pulling power from its muscular engine.
The Audi S8 features 'S' body styling and dual-branch oval twin tailpipes at the very rear. The door mirror housings get aluminium-effect detailing, and behind the 20-inch alloy wheels there are black brake calipers with a subtle S8 logo.
Inside, every surface exudes Audi quality no matter which of the styling options you specify. Soft-touch leather in a variety of colours is offered to complement or contrast with inlays of wood, brushed aluminium or Piano finish. Whichever combination is chosen the arrangement will be uncluttered and intuitive, as each function falls immediately to hand in the front or rear.
Reflecting the progressive nature of the S8 is its in-vehicle technology, designed to enhance the driving experience. Keeping you in touch with the people and networks that matter is Audi Connect, which enables your smartphone to be linked with the vehicle via Bluetooth®, 3G, or using the SIM reader. On top of phone calls the system allows you to access Google Maps, traffic information, and online point of interest search, while also creating a WiFi hotspot. When music is streamed from your phone or played via the radio it's heard clearly through the BOSE surround-sound system.
On the road you'll be most impressed by the technology fitted under the bonnet, delivered by a choice of five engines. The quickest is the 513bhp 4.0-litre TFSI quattro which takes around 4.1 seconds to reach 60mph, For those demanding cleaner output and enhanced economy, Audi has included a hybrid among the line-up too, which combines a 40kW electric motor with the firm's award-winning 2.0-litre TFSI unit. Coupled with eight-speed tiptronic transmission, the engine returns a remarkable 45.6mpg combined and emits just 144g/km of CO2.
Advanced Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) makes instant adjustments to performance to help you stay in control, while cruise control allows you to maintain a constant speed during long motorway stretches. If an incident were to occur the pre-sense basic system will recognise it and prepare the car to protect you, helped by Backguard head restraints, multiple airbags and the strong Audi Space Frame.
