24 Jul 2012|2,958 views
Audi is reportedly naturally aspirated 4.2-litre V8 engine for the 2013 A8, in favour of a switch to the twin turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 being used in the S6 and S7. The new engine churns out 420bhp and 550Nm of torque; a boost of 48bhp and 105Nm from the original engine. Audi will continue to offer the 6.3-litre W12 in the A8, as well as the 3.0-litre supercharged V6 that was also added for the 2013 model year.
All of the A8's engines are mated to eight-speed automatic transmissions, and Quattro all-wheel drive is standard across the board.
The 2013 A8 will officially go on sale later this year.
