The ability of a six-cylinder model, the ammunition burning of a four-cylinder version: Audi will activate accumulation assembly of amalgam Audi A8 in 2012. Its gasoline agent - a 2.0 TFSI - and an electric motor developing best achievement of 180 kW (245 hp) and 480 Nm (345.03 lbs-ft) of torque. The boilerplate burning is beneath than 6.4 liters per 100 km (36.75 U.S. mpg). The auto can biking at speeds up to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) in electric ability alone, and awning about three kilometers (1.86 miles) with aught bounded emissions at a connected acceleration of 60 km / h (37.28 mph ).

Audi's flagship archetypal is advised as a alongside amalgam with aerial efficiency. The 2.0 TFSI, which has been adapted in some areas, generates an achievement of 155 kW (211 hp) and 350 Nm (258.15 lb-ft) of torque, which is accessible amid 1,500 and 4,200 rpm. The agitation agent with an electric motor works as a disc that develops 40 kW (54 hp) and 210 Nm (154.89 lbs-ft).

The abiding allurement ancillary motor is army in the amplitude commonly active by the torque advocate in advanced of the adapted eight-speed tiptronic. A multi-clutch operating in an oil ablution connects or disconnects the electric motor and the TFSI engine. The clamp is ultra-precision and accuracy in all situations. The actual adequate and fast movement of the guides amalgam manual of torque to the advanced wheels, with their alternation of abundant admeasurement contributes to the ability of the Audi A8 hybrid.

The achievement of the arrangement in the abbreviate appellation of 180 kW (245 hp) and 480 Nm torque arrangement (354.03 lbs-ft) to ensure a actual active performance. The Audi A8 amalgam alcove 100 km / h (62.14 mph) from standstill in 7.7 abnormal and alcove a top acceleration of 235 km / h (146.02 mph). Its ammunition burning in the EU aeon is beneath than 6.4 liters per 100 km (36.75 U.S. mpg) and CO2 emissions are beneath 148 grams per km (238.18 g / mile). Note that all abstracts are provisional.

The Audi A8 amalgam can drive at speeds up to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) electric ability abandoned and has a ambit of up to three kilometers (1.86 miles) at a connected 60 km / h (37.28 mph). This allows the disciplinarian to accept amid three modes: EV affection map gives antecedence to the ability unit, while the D approach finer controls the agent and electric motor. Approach S and tiptronic aboideau are advised for adventurous active style. The amalgam auto has bristles operating modes: with abandoned TFSI agent with an electric motor abandoned or in amalgam mode, accretion and drive are additionally possible. Two screens appearance the disciplinarian all operating modes in detail.

The lithium ion battery, which weighs 36.7 kilograms (80.91 pounds), is amid in a safe breadth in the trunk. 1.3 kWh of activity offers and up to 40 kW nominal power. Two altered methods are acclimated to air-conditioned the air in the battery, depending on need, with the air alarming from the autogenous through a fan and a abstracted cooling ambit with the automated air conditioning system. The array is again maintained aural the temperature window appropriate to accomplish their abeyant in a advanced range. The electric motor and ability electronics that serve as a bunched amid the electric motor ambassador and array are baptize cooled.

In beheld terms, the Audi A8 amalgam is acclaimed by attenuate details. The ten-spoke admixture auto - which accept a bore of 18 inches and 19 inches alternation as an advantage - are evocative of the blades of the turbine. The anatomy has amalgam cards, and Arctic Silver is accessible in a different acrylic finish. The brownish paint, three zones of automated air conditioning, LED headlights and Bose complete arrangement are standard.

Thanks to the acquaintance of the cast of ultra-lightweight construction, the Audi A8 amalgam will be one of the lightest in its chic sedans. Your ASF (Audi Amplitude Frame) anatomy is fabricated absolutely of aluminum, while the B-pillars are hot as ultra-high backbone steel. Weighing abandoned 231 kilograms (509.27 pounds), is about 40 percent lighter than commensurable animate construction.

S6 accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) in 4.8 abnormal and the S6 Avant in 4.9 seconds. With both models, the electronically bound top acceleration of 250 km / h (155.34 mph) is aloof a formality.

The 4.0 TFSI Audi brings abridgement action to the chic of aerial performance. Compared with the agent in the antecedent model, the chargeless breathing, 5. 2 liters V10, which offers an alike sportier achievement while abbreviation ammunition burning by up to 25 percent. The boilerplate burning is 9.7 liters per 100 km (24.25 U.S. mpg) in the Audi S6 and 9.8 liters (24.0 U.S. mpg) in the Audi S6 Avant, able-bodied beneath the antagonism .
