Impressive poiseThe Audi A8 4.2 FSI

At the heart of the Audi A8 are its modern, systematically refined engines. Impressive reserve power delivers superior road performance and consistently immaculate handling – with consumption and emission figures that have been decisively lowered compared with the previous model, thanks to a whole series of efficiency measures.

Like many other Audi engines, the 4.2-litre V8 engine in the Audi A8 uses FSIFSIGetting more out of every drop of petrol.FSI technology. The latest generation of engine management systems and innovative thermal management also help to reduce the fuel consumption. The engine consequently reaches its operating temperature faster after a cold start, reducing frictional losses. The Audi A8 4.2 FSI needs just 9.5 l of fuel over 100 km – even though it delivers an impressive output of 273 kW (372 bhp). Its peak torque of 445 Nm takes it from 0 to 100 km/h in a mere 5.7 seconds.
