The Audi A8 made its debut in Europe in 1994, built on an all aluminium monocoque, it was tagged as the "Audi Space Frame" (ASF). The Audi A8 was the world's first car built on an entirely aluminium platform.
Since 1997, the Audi A8 was available with either front-wheel drive (FWD), or the Torsen-based quattro permanent four-wheel drive. The FWD models are powered by a 2.8litre V6 engine, producing 142 kilowatts (193PS; 190bhp), and 3.7litre V8 engine producing 171.5kilowatts (233 PS; 230 bhp), while the quattro received a 4.2litre V8 producing 220kilowatts (299 PS; 295 bhp).
In 1997, Germany built a two-door Audi A8 Coupe which was unveiled at the 1997 Geneva Motor Show. The Audi A8 Coupe was a re-engineered aluminium body, shorter than the production A8 saloon, with no central "B" pillar, giving the car a seamless design with a gradually sloping roofline. Audi decided not to put the A8 Coup into production and only one A8 Coup was ever built.
The A8 is available with standard luxury amenities, including:
Dual-Zone Climate Control
Wood and Leather Interior Trim
Heated Seats
Enhanced Bose Audio System
Larger Passenger-Side Mirror
