In August this year, a new car Audi was launched. This new car uses a fuel engine. It can also be called Audi's last large-displacement new car, because Audi will begin to discontinue the production of large-displacement fuel vehicles in the future. This new car is the Audi S8. There is only one version on the market this time, the specific configuration is 2023 model S8L 4.0TFSI quattro, and the manufacturer's guide price of is 2.0768 million. Let’s talk about this new car and see what surprises it brings to us.
From the appearance design point of view, this Audi S8 still adopts a family-style design. Looking from a distance, many friends may mistakenly think that this is a modified version of the Audi A6L. The grille of the new car is made of silver material and is equipped with a blade-shaped headlight design, which has an excellent appearance. It is worth mentioning that the new car is equipped with laser headlights.
From the side of the model, this new car is relatively similar to the Audi A8L. The entire body looks particularly slender. After all, this is a D-class car . The wheels adopt a blackened hollow design, the size reaches 21 inches, and are matched with red brake calipers, which is full of performance.
Looking at the rear design, the new car is equipped with four round exhaust pipes on both sides, and they are also made of chrome plating. This is genuine and will be accompanied by noise. In addition, a through-type taillight design is also adopted. Do you like the appearance of such a performance beast? In terms of body data, the length, width and height of this Audi S8 are 5320/1945/1489mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 3128mm. It is a large car.
The interior design of the new car is also familiar to us, but there are still some differences from the traditional Audi A6L interior. For example, the position of the 10.1-inch large central control screen has been moved downwards. In addition, it also has carbon fiber material covering and through-type air conditioning outlets. The driving computer screen and air conditioning control area also use touch screen designs. I originally thought that this Audi S8 would use a push-button shifting mechanism, but I didn't expect that it would still use a traditional mechanical gear lever, which is covered with an carbon fiber panel. It can be regarded as some changes.
As for the configuration, the new car is equipped with leather seats with heating, ventilation, memory and massage functions. In fact, it is rare to see such high configurations under Audi. In addition, it also has a leather steering wheel with memory and shift paddles function, and is also equipped with a panoramic sunroof.
So what about the intelligent assisted driving system of this new car? The new car is equipped with an L2-level intelligent assisted driving system, which is equipped with a series of functions such as active braking and lane departure warning. The intelligent design is actually quite good.
Let’s look at the power system. This Audi S8 is equipped with a 4.0T twin-turbocharged engine. This is a V8 engine with a maximum power of 571 horsepower and a peak torque of 800N·m. It also has a 48V mild hybrid system. The transmission part is an eight-speed manual-automatic gearbox, which can achieve 0-100km/h in 4 seconds. In fact, even for new energy vehicles , such data is amazing enough, not to mention that this Audi S8 is a fuel vehicle. In terms of
chassis design, the new car is equipped with full-time four-wheel drive and a center differential. It is also equipped with air suspension and limited-slip differential .
Generally speaking, this Audi S8 is still a performance champion, but under the impact of the new energy vehicle era, fewer and fewer new car owners are buying this type of new car. After all, high fuel consumption is also an unavoidable problem of this new car.
Of course, there are still a considerable number of consumers on the market who still have a soft spot for fuel vehicles. If your budget is sufficient, then this Audi S8 is worth considering.
