The Audi S8 TFSI quattro is the sporty top model of the series. Here, the biturbo V8 delivers 420 kW (571 hp) of power and 800 Nm of torque from 2,050 to 4,500 rpm. The standard sprint is done in 3.8 seconds. The COD system also increases efficiency in the S8. Sound flaps in the exhaust system sharpen the sound, if desired. The most powerful model in the A8 family also rolls off the assembly line with a particularly extensive range of standard equipment. Among other things, it includes a unique combination of innovative chassis components. Only the S8 has the anticipatory active suspension, the sport differential and the dynamic all-wheel steering installed ex works. The sporty character is specifically emphasized with striking design elements in the interior and exterior. In the large markets of China, the USA, Canada and South Korea, the Audi S8 is only available with a long wheelbase. The increase in vehicle length and height means a significant increase in comfort for the occupants thanks to increased headroom and legroom. All the engines mentioned so far have mild hybrid technology (MHEV) on board as standard, which uses the 48-volt main electrical system of the A8
