Audi S8 Plus Is the Fastest S Model Ever

The specs of Audi’s S8 Plus are now available, and it looks like the new model will be the most powerful vehicle in the luxury super-saloon market. With a stronger version of the 4-liter V8 TFSI engine, the Plus will be capable of producing 597 bhp and 553lb ft of torque.

Audi’s new S Model is three-tenths of a second faster than the regular S8’s 4.2-second, zero-to-62 mph time record. The car’s twin-turbocharged V8 engine control mapping and boost pressure were also enhanced to achieve even faster speeds.

The luxury automotive company modified the exhaust valves and updated the turbos too. With a reimagined adaptive air suspension for better acceleration and an eight-speed Tiptronic automatic gearbox, the new model is dynamic and fast.

Drivers can also opt for the Dynamic Package, which removes the 155-mph limiter and adds carbon-fiber reinforced brakes. Darkened taillights, a gloss-black diffuser insert, a lip spoiler on the boot lid, gloss-black grill bars, carbon side air inlets, and gloss-black tailpipes are also included in the optional package.

The vehicle’s interior is similar to the original S8 with full leather featuring contrast stitching and piping on the seats and trim. Audi’s truly outdone itself with the super-fast, updated S8 Plus.
