The new Flagship

The new Audi A8 - the sportiestsedan in the luxury class

2011 Audi A8:

Design Audi design is always ascinating in its com-

plex intelligence. Te outer skin o the new A8conveys homogeneity, as i modeled rom a ullvolume. A coupé-like roo line lets the silhouetteow; sculptured suraces conveying calmnessand prestige contrast with sharp lines. Te new  A8 underscores the leading position maintainedby Audi in the eld o automotive design. Rep-resenting the cutting edge in many innovativetechnologies, the A8 indicates this role throughnew and progressive design elements.

Te Audi A8 signicantly exceeds in lengthand width both its predecessor and its competi-tors. Its height, however, remains below that o itsimmediate rivals in Germany – the proportionsollow the dynamic line.

Te A8 displays its single-rame radiator grillelike a proud coat o arms. Framed by a chromeedge, the grille presents a new design – sculptured,three- dimensional and rich in details. With an-gular upper corners, it is neatly integrated in theront section, while the prominent, horizontalchrome braces emphasize the vehicle width.

Te Audi A8 looks out on the world throughnewly designed headlights – with xenon plusunits and the innovative ull LED headlights,a technology Audi was the rst to introduce  worldwide in the R8 high-perormance sportscar. Te adaptive light system augments the xe-

non plus units – it controls the swiveling mod-ules so that they always provide the perect light-ing or intersections, the city, country roads andhighways. Te new all-weather light integratedinto the headlights replaces the og lights. Teirtraditional location in the air intakes is now oc-cupied by the radar sensors o the optional adap-tive cruise control with stop & go unction.

 A technological breakthrough rom Audi isthe networking o the headlight control unit  with the optional MMI navigation plus. Tenavigation system analyzes the route ahead andrelays the data to the light computer to activatehighway lighting with its extended range whilestill on the ramp to the highway, or example.Beore entering an intersection, the system acti-vates the cornering light, which provides wider-angle illumination and thus enhances saety.

high-enD Technology:The Full leD heaDlighTs

Te high-end solution on board the new A8 isthe ull LED headlights. Tey give the big sedanan unmistakable appearance even in daylight and

even more so ater the all o darkness. Teir revo-lutionary optics mean a departure rom the large,tubular light modules commonly used today.

Te low beams comprise ten individual mod-ules orming an arc situated below the wing-shaped chrome contour known as the ‘wing.’

 Just below this is another arc o 22 white and 22yellow LEDs or the daytime running lights andthe turn signals.

Located above the wing are the high beams, whose light is generated by two powerul our-chip LEDs and a ree surace reector system.Te ull LED headlights oer a number o unc-tional advantages in everyday situations. Witha color temperature o 5,500 Kelvin, their lightresembles daylight and thus is much less tiringto the eyes. Tey also oer efciency advantages.Te low beams, or example, consume only 40 watts per unit, a bit less than the already highly efcient xenon plus headlights.

BoDyBig, strong, sae and yet amazingly lightweight

– the aluminum body once again sets new stan-dards. Its low weight is a key actor or the out-standing driving dynamics, exemplary efciency and very good comort o the new A8. Audi, thelightweight design pioneer o the automotive in-dustry, again demonstrates its leadership role.

Fiteen years ago the our rings brand intro-duced the technology o the Audi Space Frame(ASF) into production – with the rst A8 gen-eration. ASF has proven its merit outstandingly;

and now Audi is again using it in a much moreadvanced orm. In its basic design the ASF body brings a latticed ramework to mind. Its skeletoncomprises extruded sections and pressure diecastparts o aluminum. Te aluminum panels – suchas the roo panels and the side panels – are joinedby riction connections.

 Audi has substantially increased the strengtho the higher-strength body components in thenew A8, thereby signicantly reducing both ma-terial thickness and weight.

One o the keys or this is a novel compositematerial or the aluminum panels. Te use o thisnew, high-strength aluminum alloy alone enableda weight saving o 6.5 kilograms (14.33 lb).

high sTiFFness, low viBraTionsBesides the low weight, the ASF body o 

the A8 has many other strengths. Te static

torsional stiness has increased by 25 percentcompared with the predecessor, already a leaderin the eld; it orms the basis or the precise,dynamic handling. In terms o lightweight qual-ity — the relationship between weight, torsionalstiness and size — the body achieved an im-provement o 20 percent. Te ASF principleensures comortably low levels o vibrations andimpressive quietness on board or that typical Audi eeling.

 Audi regards the development o a new ve-hicle as a holistic mission. Te overall energy balance sheet covering the entire vehicle lie re-veals the new A8 achieves better results than its

predecessor with respect to all important envi-ronmental criteria, including CO2 emissions.Te crucial actor is the phase o use, wherein particular the new, highly efcient enginesplay a positive role. Aluminum is also superiorto steel as a body material with respect to CO2thanks to its excellent recycling properties.

inTeriorTe interior o the new Audi A8 is a well-

ness lounge or the senses. With its elegantstyling and quality o workmanship on thecratsman level, the interior is deeply rootedin the philosophy o the our rings brand. Inthe cut it is much wider, more airy and spa-cious than its predecessor. Its salient elementis the ‘wrap- around’ – a ci rcumerential curveorming an elegant beltline as on a yacht. Telarge curve integrates the sleek and low instru-ment panel. Its neat & tidy ront is shaped likea gentle wave.

Te Audi brand’s clear and intuitive operatingphilosophy reaches new heights in the A8. Telarge, round instruments are clearly delineated.Te driver inormation system (DIS), which

serves as a ully edged inormation and con-trol center, has a new layout. Its center display has increased to a 7-inch diagonal, showing allunctions according to an easily understandableconcept. It is operated at the equally improvedmultiunction steering wheel.

Audi has launched the next generation o the A8 – the

sportiest sedan o the luxury class sets new stan-dards. Its elegantly styled body with the Audi SpaceFrame (ASF) is aluminum, the engines are powerul andhighly ecient, and the power transmission and runninggear combine dynamics with convenience. The new fag-ship’s generously designed interior captivates with its luxu-rious equipment, newly developed control system MMI and the excellent quality o its workmanship. Innovative assis- tance systems lend even more condence to driving.

perfecT conTrol console

Te center tunnel in the new A8 is wide andevenly inclined. As an ergonomically ideal con-trol console, it contains the control panel or theautomatic air conditioning and the terminal o the MMI control and multimedia system, now in a new version. It orms a clearly organizedtouch & eel arrangement o three zones, one o  which is reserved or audio. Operation is totally stress-ree: Te driver’s wrist on the selector levero the 8-speed tiptronic, asymmetrically locatedon the center tunnel, leaving the hand at ease totouch and turn switches.

In standby mode, the monitor o the MMIsystem is recessed in the instrument panel.Switched on, it moves upwards in an elegantcurve, nicely setting the scene or the systemstart. Te large monitor with its 8-inch diagonalis extremely at.

Te A8 also sets the bar at a new height in thequality o workmanship, another big domain o 

 Audi. Te combination o highest-quality mate-rials and their precise implementation make theinterior a sensuous experience. Te large controlsand buttons are optionally available with alumi-num suraces and click easily and precisely likeclockwork. Many switches gleam in high-glossblack, and all requently used parts are coveredby a new kind o top coat making them extreme-ly scratch-resistant.

 Audi oers ve basic colors or the interior,and three shades or the roo lining. Te selec-tion o coverings ranges to natural leather, whichis especially sot and breathable. Passionate indi-vidualists can choose rom two Audi design selec-tions in special colors that integrate many luxuri-ous equipment eatures. Audi also oers severalleather packages, an Alcantara package and theextended aluminum look in the interior.

Te standard ront seats eature 12-way elec-tric adjustment. Te comort seats oer evenmore luxury with their 22-way adjustability,also incorporating the sides o the seats. Audialso oers optional seats with a sporty look andtop-stitched diamond patterns. Tree-stagedventilation is oered in addition to the heating.

 Another luxury extra is the pneumatic massage,in which twin air chambers pulsate in the back-rest – the driver and ront passenger can regulatethem in ve programs, with the intensity gradu-ated in three stages.

  As a large, luxurious touring sedan the A8also treats its rear passengers on a rst-class level.On request, Audi even provides the rear bench with versatile electric adjustment o the outsideseats; a memory eature is on board as is adju-stability o the ront passenger seat rom therear. Seat heating, electric blinds and the our-zone automatic air conditioning together with aseparate rear control panel round o the pack-age. Ventilation and a massage unction are alsoavailable.

engines

Superior power and high efciency – the new  A8 makes its debut on the market with a strongV8 engine. With 372 hp, they never ail to im-press with their superior power and mighty butdiscreet propulsion. All engines eature directuel injection, and consume 15 percent less uelthan their respective predecessors.

Te engine in the A8 has intelligent elementsrom Audi’s modular efciency system on board.During deceleration the recuperation systemconverts the kinetic energy to electric power, which is buered in the battery. In the innova-tive thermal management a computer monitors

numerous actuators or the ideal distribution o the heat ows between the engine, transmissionand interior in any situation. Ater the cold startthe engine is temporarily ully uncoupled romthe cooling circuit, considerably shortening the warm-up phase with its high loss o riction.

Te 4.2 FSI draws 273 kW (372 hp) o pow-er rom 4,163 cm3 displacement, generating itsmaximum o 445 Nm (328.22 lb-t) torque at3,500 rpm. It accelerates the A8 rom zero to 100km/h in 5.7 seconds, with the propulsion end-ing (as in all engine variants) at the electronically controlled speed o 250 km/h (155.34 mph).

DriveTrain

Te new Audi A8 oers the utmost superi-ority also in power transmission. A new, elec-tronically controlled 8-speed tiptronic systemand quattro permanent all- wheel drive rom the

production line. On request, Audi also installsthe dynamic sport dierential.

Te 8-speed tiptronic is a totally newly devel-oped automatic transmission. Its great strengthlies in the high overall gear ratio o 7.0:1 betweenthe shortest and longest gear ratio, reducing theuel consumption by about six percent. Startingo, the A8 accelerates dynamically, rolling alonghighways with low, consumption-reducing revs. All gear changes are nearly unnoticeably sot andsmooth, very ast and highly exible.

Te 8-speed tiptronic achieves a high level o 

efciency. One o the actors behind this is thehighly efcient pump or supplying oil, anotherthe heating o the oil by the coolant ollowing acold start, or lowering rictional loss.

Te dynamic shit program (DSP) that con-trols the transmission eatures the automatic

operating modes D and S. A pioneering in-novation rom Audi is its networking with thedetailed route data supplied by the optionalMMI navigation plus system. By means o this

data the DSP incorporates upcoming curves inits gearshit strategy – it avoids unnecessary gearchanges on narrow roads, or example.

Te new selector lever on the center tunnelis or selecting driving modes – shaped like thethrust lever on a yacht, it orms a highlight in theelegant interior o the sedan. Te ergonomically perected lever communicates with the transmis-sion electronically. Gear changes are triggered by a brie tap o the lever, ater which it automati-cally returns to its center position. You can alsochange gears using the rocker switches on the

steering wheel.Te quattro permanent all-wheel drive systemequally contributes to the new A8’s leading posi-tion. Its mechanical center dierential managesnormal automotive operation: 60 percent to thedierential o the rear axle and 40 percent to theront – a sporty characteristic. Should slip occurat a wheel, the dierential sends the large part o the torque to the axle with the better traction.

high enD: The a8’s opTional exTras

Te line o luxurious optional extras is es-pecially attractive. Deserving special mention

are the deluxe ront center armrest, the conve-nience key or accessing the vehicle, the electricsun blinds or the rear, the 230 V outlet on thetunnel, the our-zone automatic air condition-ing, the auxiliary heating and the ambient lightpackage. Te comort seats or the driver and

ront passenger can be adjusted 22 ways; heat-ing, ventilation and a massage eature with veprograms are available on request.

Te new A8 also occupies a leading position

in navigation and inotainment systems. Te topversion, MMI navigation plus, reads the course o the route in advance. Te MMI touch also servesoperation – another solution rom Audi that setsnew standards. Tree sound systems, includingthe top-notch system rom Bang & Olusen, aretruly music to the ears, while a ully integratedrear seat entertainment system is available or therear. Te new A8 also has intelligent technolo-gies on board or utilizing internet services.

For the distinct individualists among its cus-tomers Audi has developed a wide range o inte-

rior colors, upholstery and inlays. Te Audi de-sign selection impresses with especially exclusivecombinations, and with various optional pack-ages containing leather, Alcantara and decorativeapplications.
