Audi A8 L New Top Model

Audi A8 L (2011)

Audi's new top model is both longer and wider than its main long-wheelbase competitors. The width remains unchanged at 1,949 mm (6.39 ft); the height has increased by 2 mm (0.08 in) to 1,462 mm (4.8 ft). The wheelbase has grown by the same amount, to 3,122 mm (10.24 ft).

 With an overall length of 5,267 millimeters (17.28 ft), the new Audi A8 L is 130 mm (0.43 ft) longer than the regular version. The long wheelbase does not disturb its taut outlines, which remain as athletic as they are elegant. What's fascinating about the Audi A8 L is its supremely powerful presence; its design is clearly derived from the brand's genes and yet has undergone further refinement. The Audi A8 L is being launched with a twelve-cylinder engine, but by the end of the year will be available with all the engines currently offered for the A8. The Audi A8 L W12 quattro, with a long wheelbase and a twelve-cylinder engine, sets new standards of luxury, dynamism and efficiency in the top automobile manufacturing league.

 And now the brand is introducing the top version of its flagship model.  The new Audi A8 is a concentrated high-tech package that confirms the Audi claim to technical leadership - "Vorsprung durch Technik".
